Understanding a person’s character is very difficult. When somebody does something wrong, how much should we hold them responsible? At a basic level, when dealing with people, we have two approaches: positive and negative. On the positive side, we give empowerment. Empowerment means authorizing someone to take responsibilities—for example, giving classes, leading kirtan, or taking…

So, you know, we may have had many kinds of conditionings while growing up. And then, we meet Gurukulis who don’t have such conditionings—they live very purely. My broad understanding is that in this world, there are no unmixed blessings. What I have observed is that those who grew up in something like a Gurukul,…

The experience of Vrindavan has been very enriching and especially the idea of just turning away from the world, transcending the world and focusing on bhakti, that seems remarkably distraction-free and tension-free. It seems much more joyful. And I agree it is. But the challenge is twofold. First is that the joy that we experience…

So, when we have the desires to leave and same we are trying to share with others also. So, well, I think it’s fair enough. There are two ways of looking at desires. One is the moral way, the other is the clinical way. Moral way is what? That, you know, oh, I am such…

When we say Krishna knows the future but does not intervene, that is one way to reconcile his omnipotence and omniscience. But then the question arises: does this mean our future is fixed—that Krishna won’t change it, and we also cannot change it? If so, then what is the point of trying to purify and…

So, if the scriptural knowledge coming through Manu is at the terrestrial level of knowledge, then the question arises—does Manu himself reside on the earth? My understanding of “terrestrial” is in that sense, because Prabhupada refers to Manu as the first human being. Now, does this human being, Manu, actually reside on the earth? From…

If we consider Lord Shiva to be the highest Vaishnava, vaishnavānām yathā śambhuḥ, why don’t we celebrate festivals like Mahashivratri? And there are so many Acharyas whose appearance and disappearance are mentioned—almost over a hundred—in the Vaishnava calendar. Yet Lord Shiva is not included in that. First, let’s look at it from three different perspectives….

So, the general Hindu understanding is that Krishna is an avatar of Vishnu. This is also the understanding of the Madhva Sampradaya, with which we are connected. However, in our Gaudiya tradition, the understanding is that Krishna is the source of Vishnu. How, then, should this apparent contradiction be seen? In the Vedic tradition, it…

When new people come to bhakti, even after sincerely trying in their academic life, they may face some failures. In such situations, should we simply give them a supportive shoulder, or should we reach out with philosophy? I don’t think these two are mutually exclusive. Reaching out doesn’t mean only preaching philosophy—it’s just one aspect…

So, nowadays everybody gets distracted by social media, AI, and it’s difficult. How do we help them to be focused? Can we make Krishna Consciousness as attractive as, say, social media is addictive? It’s an ongoing challenge for everyone. I think the question many parents ask, or many people ask, you know, why are people…

So when we face demanding situations, we feel agitated, anxious, and even if we try to remember Krishna, we still feel that emotion at that particular time, although it goes away after some time. So how can we deal with it at that time? See, there’s a fundamental misconception about the relationship between Krishna Consciousness…

So I’ll rephrase your question, three parts in it. First is that the soul, basically based on the third chapter of the Bhagavad Gita, essentially does nothing. The soul acts through the mind and intelligence in this world and we don’t say that. Second is that when people say that the soul does this, soul…
