Sivarama Swami More Recent Articles Search Planet ISKCON Bharatavarsa.net: Book distribution seminar: Good Character Saves a Soul While speaking earlier this week with a boy who's recently taken up bhakti-yoga, I realized how important purity and Vaisnava character are for distributing Srila Prabhupada's books and inspiring people to take up devotional service. The boy was named Anchal. He had recently come to New Zealand from India, supposedly to further his studies but actually to meet his guru. He related to me how four months after his arrival here he had met a brahmacari distributing books on the street in Auckland. He had thought to himself, "If this person is really spiritual, a lover of God, then even if I provoke him he will surely be very patient and display his saintly character." Anchal described how he had tried to provoke the devotee this way and that way, but the devotee remained very patient with him and never lost his cool. Anchal was so impressed with the brahmacari that he thought, "I've never met anyone so wonderful in my life!" This despite the fact that Anchal is from India, the land of spiritual culture. Soon thereafter Anchal met Devamrta Swami, and during their first meeting he accepted him as his guru. Anchal is now chanting 16 rounds. Good character is the most important factor in distributing Krsna consciousness -- more than our joking ability, our hairstyle, the spot we're given to distribute in, some new sankirtan lines, etc. We don't know the future of those we meet on Sankirtan, and so we should always display the highest Vaisnava behavior, even if someone tries to provoke us.   • Email to a friend • • Akrura das, Gita Coaching: Who can reach Vaikuntha planets?

Here's more serialising of recipes by my cooking guru, Yamuna Devi. Before attempting to cook any of her recipes, make sure you are aware of the difference between US measures and Australian/metric measures. See below* (It's almost apricot season here in Australia. First of the season apricots are the most tasteful, says Kurma.) This is outstanding chutney, especially when the apricots are tree-ripened, sweet and fragrant. For those of us resorting to fruits sold at supermarkets or corner grocers, look for barely ripened fruit with a fragrant smell. If they are absolutely without smell, use dried apricots which require an overnight soaking in lime juice and water and a slight increase in cooking time. American (and Australian) dried apricots little resemble their shriveled Indian counterpart, aloo bookhara, but they are almost as tasty as the fresh fruit. Preparation and cooking time for fresh apricots: 30 minutes, Preparation, soaking and cooking time for dried apricots: overnight, Makes: 1½ cups. ½ pound (230 g) dried apricot halves, quartered and soaked overnight in 3 table spoons lime juice and 2 cups (480 ml) hot water; or 2 pounds (1 kg) fresh apricots, seeded and sliced, plus 3 tablespoons lime juice and ½ cup water, 2 tablespoons ghee or butter, 3-inch (7.5 cm) piece of cinnamon stick, ½ teaspoon kalonji or black sesame seeds, ½ tablespoon scraped fresh ginger root, minced, 2/3 cup (85 g) dark raisins or currants, ½ cup (75 g) maple sugar or brown sugar, packed, ¼ teaspoon salt, 1/8 – ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper. If you are using dried apricots, drain the soaked fruit in a strainer and collect the liquid. Heat the ghee or butter over moderate heat in 3-quart/liter stainless steel or enamel saucepan. When it melts, add the cinnamon, kalonji or black sesame seeds and ginger, and fry for about ½ minute. Stir in the remaining ingredients, raise the heat slightly, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to moderately low and simmer, stirring now and then, especially in the last 10 minutes, until the chutney is thick and glazed, about 30 minutes for fresh apricots and 45 minutes for dried. Serve at room temperature, or refrigerate, covered, for 2-3 days. *Note that since Yamuna wrote her recipes using US measurements, the weights are in US with metric in brackets. More importantly, her tablespoons are US (15ml) whereas Australian/metric tablespoons are 20ml. So if you follow these recipes using metric measures, your tablespoons should be scant. Similarly, the US cup is 240ml as distinct from the Australian/metric 250ml cup. The same scant measuring should thus apply to Australian/metric cup users. The teaspoon is a universal 5ml.   • Email to a friend • • Bharatavarsa.net: Bhakti Vikasa Swami: chanting, not magic, is Srila Prabhupada's attraction Interviewer: I wonder if you could tell me how you came to founding the movement here in the United States.

Satsvarupa das Goswami: 85 www.sdgonline.org. 3:13 A.M. Namamrta by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada: ‘A devotee can be satisfied in any condition of life simply by chanting Hare Krishna: “For the spiritual master, a pure devotee, heaven and hell are both the same if there is no Krishna consciousness. In hell people are suffering in so many ways, and in heaven they are enjoying their senses in so many ways, but a devotee of the Lord can live any place where there is Krishna consciousness, and since he brings this consciousness with him, he is always self-satisfied. If he is sent to hell, he will be satisfied simply chanting Hare Krishna. In fact he does not believe in hell but in Krishna. Similarly, if he were put in heaven, where there are so many opportunities for sense gratification he would also remain aloof, for his senses are satisfied by Krishna Himself. Thus for the service of the Lord a devotee is prepared to go anywhere, and for this reason he is very dear to Krishna.” (The Science of Self Realization) Material life is temporary and so the ups and downs of life may come and go. When they come one should be as tolerant as a tree and as humble and meek as a straw in the street, but certainly he must engage himself in Krishna consciousness by chanting Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare. In any condition of life, if one goes on chanting he will never be unhappy. It is to be understood that any person who is constantly engaged in chanting the holy names of the Lord has attained a transcendental affection for Krishna, and as such, in any condition of life he remains satisfied simply by remembering the Lord’s name in full affection and ecstatic love. This is certainly something I want to remember and practice. It is hard to be “satisfied” when you are in as physically painful condition or you are mentally disturbed. But by chanting you can get solace anywhere, in any condition. At least one should go on chanting in any condition and try to experience the benefits. When I was in the Navy I did not know about chanting. I felt so imprisoned and lonely. If I had known about chanting I could have survived better. Once I did learn to chant I was able to endure the difficulty of associating with nondevotees in the welfare office by chanting within my mind. I specifically asked Prabhupada if it was all right to chant silently in my mind while at the workplace in order to get relief from the prattle of my co-workers. I said they were all talking nonsense. Prabhupada said, “Not only your co-workers are talking nonsense but so are the great philosophers of the world, and so you can go on chanting within your mind and get relief.” I did so and my workday went smoother. This morning, after a night of dreams, I got up from bed at 12:39 A.M. I was wide awake and had no pain. My chanting went very smoothly. I enunciated the names clearly and linked them all in an endless chain as I accumulated toward my quota. My mind sometimes wandered, but I brought it back to attentive japa. By 3:05 I had finished sixteen rounds. I consider it a better day than average. Chanting your rounds alone in the quiet morning with a relatively quiet mind. It’s peaceful and transcendental. My mind wandered to some of the books I have written and to my correspondence with a poet. But I brought it back to hearing thoughts of the Hare Krishna mantra and was satisfied and fixed. Without stoppage I built up my numerical count round after round smoothly and at peace. Chanting in this way makes me happy, and I feel I have been praying in earnest. May Krishna let me improve to higher stages.   • Email to a friend • • H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: Prabhupada Smaranam www.sdgonline.org. One Hundred Prabhupada Poems, #42 “Dear Srila Prabhupada, you told Dr. Patel the guru’s order is factual not a vague ‘feeling that whatever I do it’s dedicated to Krishna.’ Krishna told Arjuna to kill the enemy. You tell us to distribute your books, chant sixteen rounds, four rules. Some orders are for all and some are vocational—for those … who want to please you in a particular line. “Don’t work without the guru’s order. A news reporter in Delhi asked you, ‘Does a disciple ever disagree with a guru on a spiritual matter?” Your answer: “Not unless he’s a fool! A damn fool!’ “They have heard the guru has an eternal form, and of course that means he has a rasa in Vraja and he may also have an eternal rasa with Lord Caitanya in Navadvipa. Maybe … don’t speculate. “I follow you as I saw you and as I hear you. Please accept my service, poor as it is. And if you ever give away another ring from your finger or something like that, I’d sure like to have an item to remember you by. But I have already, don’t I? So much mercy and more every day. ‘If you want to know me, then read my books.’”   • Email to a friend • • H.H. Satsvarupa das Goswami: Poem from Under Dark Stars www.sdgonline.org. 1.

Satsvarupa das Goswami: Free Write www.sdgonline.org. I turned at random to Srimad-Bhagavatam 1st Canto, Chapter 9, verse 33: “Sri Krishna is the intimate friend of Arjuna. He has appeared on this earth in His transcendental body, which resembles the bluish color of the tamala tree. His body attracts everyone in the three planetary systems [upper, middle and lower]. May His glittering yellow dress and His lotus face, covered with paintings of sandalwood pulp, be the object of my attraction, and may I not desire fruitive results.” These are among the prayers of Bhisma as he lay dying on the bed of arrows on the battlefield of Kuruksetra. He was surrounded by the Pandavas and Lord Krishna Himself, who had come to honor the passing away of the great warrior and devotee. Bhisma fought against the Pandavas and Sri Krishna as a matter of circumstances, because he was supported by the Kauravas, but he was actually a well-wisher of the Pandavas and a great devotee of Lord Krishna. He worshiped Krishna in the chivalrous humor and adored the sight of Krishna rushing toward him on the battlefield, His transcendental body powdered by the dust from the horses’ hooves and His body wounded by Bhisma’s arrows. Visvanatha Cakravarti comments that “the arrows of Bhisma did not actually hurt Krishna but were received by Him like the bites of a lover in amorous exchange.” Here Bhisma addresses Krishna as the intimate friend of Arjuna. He knows that the Lord likes to be addressed in connection with His intimate devotees, and Arjuna shared the rasa of intimate friendship with Krishna. Bhisma meditates on the Lord’s beautiful appearance with glittering yellow dress and His face ornamented with sandalwood pulp. Prabhupada appreciates the loving relationship of Bhismadeva and Krishna and says it should not be neglected by paying attention only to Krishna’s conjugal relationship with the gopis. Prabhupada writes, “The direct relation of a particular soul with the Lord is evolved. A genuine relation of the living being with the Supreme Lord can take any form out of the five principal rasas, and it does not make any difference in transcendental degree to the genuine devotee.” Steve Kowit read Sanatorium. He liked it, saw it as Kerouacian outpouring of creative energy, reminded him of the first book I wrote like that on the Lower East Side. He liked the way the poems fit in. Saw it as very autobiographical and liked the plot of the crippled girl Sandy and how it was completed. He thought Sandy must have been modeled on a real experience in my life, but it was pure fiction. Wishes me well in writing and painting. I’m very happy to have that reception from him. I wish I had the energy to do more like Sanatorium and Under Dark Stars. For now I’ve got the Writing Sessions. Saci heard I had a great time at the Philly Ratha Yatra. It was so, I met so many people. I have a slight headache and am not writing with much physical energy. I just read a little bit of Bhaktivinoda Thakura’s songs taking complete shelter in Krishna. He says he will never be afraid of the material world. Krishna can kill anyone He wants. Taking shelter of Krishna, everything will be all right. But how do you do it? You chant His holy names. You render service to Him such as preaching. Taking shelter of Krishna, you render prayers to Him. You talk to Him as your protector. Staying under His instructions. Read the sastras. Think of Him as your Father. Meditate on Him and Radha and Their pastimes. Lie down on your bed when your head feels weak and utter His names. “I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth,” the Christian Apostles’ Creed begins. We pray, “I believe in Lord Krishna, the original supreme person, the origin and sustainer of all life. He creates the material universes through the agencies of His Vishnu expansions and the cooperation of the material energy, Mayadevi. I believe Krishna lives in the spiritual world far beyond the material worlds. Above even the Vaikuntha planets where Lord Narayana resides, Krishna sports in Goloka Vrndavana. There He has the most intimate pastimes of self- satisfaction with the gopis and with His mother Yasoda and His father Nanda Maharaja. I also believe in a Supersoul present in everyone’s heart.”   • Email to a friend • • New Vrndavan, USA: Vaisnavi Conference Oct. 1-3 On Saturday, October 2, Praladananda devi dasi, a new York-based film producer, will be presenting a seminar in New Vrindaban on film production for amateurs. Her presentation is entitled “How to Film: Making the Best Use of Your Time and Video Equipment.” This seminar will cover a wide spectrum of topics such as how to frame or compose an image; looking at light and shadow; filming from different angles and perspectives; zooming in and out; and the art of interviewing. Praladananda will also discuss the use of sound. Students will be given time to practice what they are shown, and to bring their work back for review and discussion. Bring either a camcorder or zoom-and-shoot digital with video capacity. Praladananda is currently producing a 60-minute documentary film on New Vrindaban’s Palace of Gold. “The Palace of Gold is an architectural wonder,” said Praladananda. “The devotees who built the Palace of Gold had a dream. Very few people make their dreams into reality, but they did it,” explained Praladananda. “The devotees who built the Palace of Gold were young, and in general they had no previous training or experience. But they dedicated their lives to building the Palace, and they have left their mark on the world. The Palace will be here for many years to come. “What is most amazing is that the Palace of Gold is in the beautiful countryside of New Vrindaban. The walking trails, rolling hills and abundant wildlife are the perfect setting for city people who need to de-stress,” said Praladananda with appreciation. “Even the deer and birds feel at peace here. It feels like a sanctuary.” Praladananda, a native of the Carribean island of Trinidad, began her film career as an editor. Working on other people’s films as an editor inspired Praladananda to start producing her own films. “I mostly edited feature films, but my focus as a producer is documentaries. I like documentaries because I can make a difference in people’s lives,” confided Praladananda. “I produced a film on blindness in Nigeria in western Africa, where 4 million people are blind because they cannot afford a simple cataract operation that costs $80.” Praladananda’s seminar on film production is part of New Vrindaban Community’s Ninth Annual Vaishnavi Retreat from October 1 – 3. This retreat is an opportunity for women to nourish their bodies, minds, and souls in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Last year, over seventy women from across North America visited Marshall County during the beautiful autumn season. Other seminar topics this year include: * Hatha yoga (yoga postures) and pranayama (breathing techniques) by Gopimata dd, a certified yoga instructor who teaches nationally * “The Culture of Care Starts From Within” by Vraja Lila dd, a certified coach in Non-violent Communication who conducts seminars world-wide * “The Freedom in Forgiveness” (exploring forgiveness as a spiritual practice) by Radha dd, who conducts seminars on conflict resolution and alternative dispute resolution across the US, and is also a certified peer counselor for victims of domestic violence Healthy vegetarian meals will be provided for retreat participants, and lodging is also available. A small donation of $10 per seminar is requested from women do not wish to attend the entire retreat. New Vrindaban Community is located south of Moundsville – Wheeling, off Route 250.

We dressed and marked our bodies with tilaka under the soft light of candles. We came down for a shining Mangala Arati ceremony. I looked up at Radharani, who was glowing with mercy. It was Her day of the year and She was blessing all the fallen souls like myself. After a decent japa session, I joined Rama, Gopinatha and Yoga in the Deity kitchen. Rama was heading a whole Gurukuli division today (our supervising Brahmana). I made some fruit salad and some puris; Yoga made me some whipped cream (for the fruit salad) and helped all over the kitchen, keeping it clean; Gopinatha made two sabjis, one containing a substantial amount of fried panneer; and Rama went about making the main bulk of the offering. We were in Radharani’s kitchen, cooking something especially for Radharani; today she was not short of helpers. I spent some time in my room, reading the story of the Avanti Brahmana. After drenching myself in Bhagavatam I decided to drench myself in more Radharani mercy. I ran downstairs to the temple room and saw Radha Gopinatha, Radharani dressed in a beautiful flower set. The temple was soon overcrowded with devotees, eager to sing bhajana for Radharani. I had to quickly duck out, making my way to the library to make my offering to Radharani. I ran back to the temple with Rama for the break fast. There was a line, almost as long as the glories of Srimati Radharani, heading into the Prasadam tent. Rama stood in line with a plate (that he had stashed earlier) while I walked into the tent to find my own. There was not a single plate in sight, only a mass of tiny bowls. I grabbed what I could and then I noticed a second line for the supposed 64 preps (which ended up being 185 preps!). I quickly beckoned Rama into the tent. The system was that people were taking the bulk Prasadam and then taking the preparations as treats. We decided to do it in reverse order, which totally removed the obstacle of waiting in traffic from the equation (without simply applying the usual Gurukuli style of oblivious line cutting. subtle is always best and leads to the same amends). We rested off the Prasadam until the boat festival. I heard the kirtana part from the Castle just as I threw my chadar over my shoulder. I rushed down the stairs in a skip and a hop. We all found our way off into a little tent, somewhere in the fields, and watched Cota Radha Gopinatha having a fabulous boat ride. Soon Rama took the Cota Deities off their boat and mounted them on a Govardhana hill model in the centre. We then walked across a bridge to offer Them flowers. We finished by escorting the Lordships back to the temple for their Arati. I found Yoga in the asrama. We started a conversation on dhotis and chadars, which turned into an epic prelude of philosophical discussion. We went on and on, although it would never end. Finally some others passed and we parted our ways. I went back to my room, to read Bhagavatam. Krsna was speaking to Uddhava about Sankya philosophy. He explained how the elements all wound up into themselves. As I read about the elements winding up, I also wound up my holy day, praying my heart out for Radharani’s mercy. Radharani!

From our friends at Brhadmrdanga.com and the New Govardhana farm at Australia What is the true path to happiness for the whole world? His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, founder of the Hare Krishna Movement, has said that the happiness of mankind is directly connected to the happiness of the cows. He stated “Because the poor animals are always in anxiety, humanity is also put in anxiety by different strains of hot and cold wars.” These simple, gentle creatures eat only grass and produce nutritious satisfying milk, like a gift from God to the world. And and out of love for the world herself the cow produces more milk than her calf can drink. Even her stool and urine have unlimited agricultural and medicinal uses. We also learn from the saints and sages that she is dear to God Himself. At New Govardhana, our mission is to show the spiritual and material benefits that result from protecting and caring for the cows. To do this, we want to make New Govardhana a place in the world where everyone can see this demonstrated practically. A place where anyone, regardless of religious persuasion, can experience the peace and satisfaction that comes from personally caring for cows Click here to go to the New Govardhana web site where you can see Cow Portraits.
