(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 15 December 2013, Soweto, South Africa, Lecture)
This human form of life is a chance, we have got a chance! It is up to us. Srila Prabhupada’s movement came to us. Because of previous sinful activities, we still have sinful desires now. We may say, “I am struggling in spiritual life.” But this just means that in your previous life, you were sinful and that is why you are struggling now.
“I find it so difficult. I find spiritual life so difficult,” means that you were sinful in your last life. If you were a great devotee in your last life then now it would be so easy, so natural. But when you were sinful in your last life, then in this life it is so difficult, you see the point!?
So all right, we may be struggling. In kali yuga, we are all sinful but we understand why we are struggling. So, we need purification by hearing and chanting and taking Krsna prasadam. Some will take shelter of that and some how, we will make it because these things are addictive, you see.
Chanting is addictive, it is hard to stop. Prasadam, “Aaahhh is there more?” Devotee association, you do not find it anywhere else. So, all these things are addictive and it will save us even from our sinful desires at the end of the day. So let us hear, let us chant, let us take Krsna prasadam and somehow or other, chanting just once destroys more sinful activities than we can commit in a lifetime!
Indradyumna Swami: This evening at our festival in Rajkot, Gujarat people came in by the droves. At one point I turned to a security guard and asked, "Sir, how many people are here?" Not taking his eyes off the entrance to the field he replied, "Eight thousand and counting." 
There are hundrends of articles about this unprecedented event of oriental spiritual practices being presented to the gathering of the most influential peope on the planet. Even though there was not direct talk about bhakti yoga and linking to the Supreme, still familiarizing these leaders with the ancient traditions of India could surely help the preaching of the devotees to all classes of people!

With Jayapataka Swami 
SEREMBAN - Witnessing the meeting of two great souls shows us in Malaysia what real love really is. HH Jayapataka Swami squeezed in a very special visit out of his hectic schedule to meet his very good friend, Iskcon Malaysia President, HH Bhakti Vrajendrananadana Swami who had miraculously recovered the third time the doctors were almost helpless as to what to do and that he was practically gone. 
Deriving knowledge from Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada’s (Founder Acharya of ISKCON) teachings of Varnashram Sanatan Dharma on Land Sustainability, Cow Protection, and Living simply with minimum resources, Saving Earth from Ultra Industrial Enterprises and similar principles, we are introducing GIE as a platform to connect youth with this vision for a mission.
