This university is serving a wider community by imparting free education to 27,000 tribal children. Very inspired to witness a monumental campus built on a life’s noble values of love and compassion with a heart of giving back to the society, exemplified by its Founder Dr Samanta.” ~ Gaur Gopal Das

The Supersoul is in everybody’s heart
→ Dandavats

Hare KrishnaBy Praghosa das

Srila Prabhupada: When one becomes angry, he forgets himself and his situation, but if one is able to consider his situation by knowledge, one transcends the influence of the modes of material nature. One is always a servant of lusty desires, anger, greed, illusion, envy and so forth, but if one obtains sufficient strength in spiritual advancement, one can control them. One who obtains such control will always be transcendentally situated, untouched by the modes of material nature. This is only possible when one fully engages in the service of the Lord.

Large gathering of Srila Prabhupada’s disciples in Vrindavana for Kartika (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: Everyone is struggling to gain something which he does not possess, and he’s lamenting for something which he has lost. But when he realizes himself that “I have nothing to gain and nothing to lose; I have nothing to do with this material world,” that is called brahma-bhutah. That is Brahman realization.

Ujjain, India

Have You Ever…?

Have you ever walked through traffic in a tightly congested, city marketplace in India? You basically must dash and dodge your way through the crowd of people, scooters and cars. Cows are the least part of the problem, but they are there. Don’t think of standing still to avoid the mechanizations. You’ll be forced to move one way or another and at different speeds from stop to start.

I thought that Ujjain was a smaller city. Yes, it is, but it’s a half-million population crammed in tight quarters, and during Diwali, it makes it feel like you’re in China. On top of that, with things coming at you from all directions, you’ve got sounds of engines, bells, whistles and car horns, all mostly at a higher pitch. It’s quite the contrast from Ely, Nevada, during the U.S. walk, when one morning I found myself in the midst of three hundred bikers all revving it up with their roaring Harley Davidsons. There the sound reached your gut.

Anyway, I was out in the streets, practically holding hands with Kamalaksha from Indore, shopping for possible drama costumes. At one point in the circle of commotion, I wondered if it was worth the endeavour. Finally, we found an outlet where theatre-wear was in stock and I managed to pick up some cheap costumes that I can adjust when I get back home.

In Ujjain, I’m really happy attending meetings with fellow monks. The sanga (company) is worth my stay here. They are my brothers.

What sets me apart from them is that I’m a drama swamiwho has to have his tools to work with.

May the Source be with you!

Ujjain, India

Getting Around

Bhakti Caru Swami is the host of our sangha meetings and he arranged a special treat for his visitors.  This morning we were bussed to three sacred places. The first was the popular temple of Maha Kaleshvara, where the Shiva Linga is adored.  Second, we were bussed to Ram Ghat by the Shipra River. Here Ram came, thousands of years ago, to honour the last rites of His father. Finally, we were taken to the school where Krishna and His brother, Balarama, were formally educated. It is called the Sandipani Muni School. Tucked away in a fertile green area are the well-maintained grounds of this location of worship.

I took a fancy to the cows who are well fed and hitched to trees in their pasture. I could see they are handled with love as many entities are in India. Relationships and love are very valued in this great land, but you also see neglect of some sectors of society. Poor folks don’t always have an option of schooling.  Neglected is the environment, like most places on our precious planet. I was remarking to Bhakti Chaitanya Swami while we bus-rode back, how trucks and cars make up the landscape and villages.

Fortunately, our meetings are held in this more decent and smaller city, unlike Mumbai, Delhi or Kolkata. It makes for a conducive space for contemplation. And the temple, well, it’s real pretty. On this Saturday evening, I was asked to lead the song in reverence to Damodara, Krishna as a child. The follow-up kirtan chant, was quite explosive.

May the Source be with you!

“Krish” “Na”
On 26 July 1976 ISKCON Founder-Acharya, His Divine Grace Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada, was meeting in London with George Harrison (world-renowned as a member of the Beatles). Srila Prabhupada told George about a famous poem written in the Sanskrit language many centuries ago by the great spiritual master, Srila Rupa Goswami, which describes how there is unlimited nectar contained within the two syllables of Lord Krishna’s name: “Krish” and “Na.” Prabhupada advised George, “In your next record, you can give this.” But so far as we know, George did not do this. Now this famous poem translated into English has been made into a song by Sankarshan Das Adhikari for all of the world to enjoy and be benefitted by.

Radha Kunda Seva: September 2017 Photos and Updates (Album with photos)
Today is the first day of the holy month of Kartika! This is Srimati Radharani’s special month, the month most dear to Krishna. We hope this update finds you happily experiencing the sweet sanctity of this special month. We finished renovations to our prasadam distribution facility in Radha Kunda – new flooring, roofing, and walls. It is now a more welcoming space for the ladies who come here daily for hot, fresh, wholesome meals. It is common during this month to take up a vrata, or vow of austerity in order to reduce bodily demands and offer oneself in service and surrender to the Supreme Lord. At our ladies’ request, we will be simplifying the meals using only very basic spicing and vegetables. It is our great honor to be able to facilitate their sadhana or spiritual practices. You may have noticed that the tiles of the Lalita Kunda benches were chipping and badly in need of repair. Now they are covered with red standstone! …a hardy and durable material which should stand the test of time and use. As usual, the daily cleaning continues. The Kartika crowds are already here! We are prepared for a month of festive chaos. Please browse our latest photos and join our efforts by visiting www.radharani.com. Your servants, Campakalata Devi dasi, Padma Gopi Devi dasi, Sri Arjuna dasa, Urmila Devi Dasi, and Mayapurcandra dasa.

Compassion – Wealth of Divine beings

Hare KrishnaBy Bhaktivedanta Vidyapitha

The compassion exhibited by Parikshit Maharaj is indeed exemplary. Although he had a few days to live, still he interrupted Sukadev Gosvami, after hearing the discussion of people suffering in various types of hell. Overcome with compassion, he asked Sukadev Goswami the way how these people could be relieved from these suffering conditions. Now to what extent and in what way, a sadhaka can imbibe the spirit of Parikshit Maharaj is important to note. Continue reading “Compassion – Wealth of Divine beings”

Cooking Class
→ TKG Academy

TKG students learn cooking from Sri Avirhotra Prabhu.

Cooking with children in schools promotes the lifetime skill of healthy cooking starting at a young age. Introducing cooking in schools has many benefits:

  • Children may try new and healthy foods.  Recent research published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics indicates that children engaged in tactile experiences, such as handling foods, have less food neophobia (food fear) and greater acceptance of eating a variety of foods.
  • A kitchen is a learning lab for children that can involve all of their senses. While kneading, tossing, pouring, smelling, cutting, and feeling foods they have fun and learn without being aware of it.
  • Children tend to skip less healthy prepared or processed snack foods as they prepare their own food more.
  • Recent research indicates that nutrition knowledge may be incomplete without the experiential learning or hands-on activities associated with food preparation that involves handling food and cooking equipment.
  • Children learn lifetime skills through practicing basic math skills such as counting, weighing, measuring, tracking time; they also gain social skills by working together and communicating in the kitchen.
  • Teaching cooking to youth is an opportunity to teach nutrition education such as planning meals and make smarter food choices.
  • Cooking can aid children in acceptance of responsibility. Each child has a task to complete to contribute the meal preparation and cleanup.
  • Cooking in schools can build positive memories that promote future healthy, enjoyable cooking elsewhere.

STEAM Class
→ TKG Academy

TKG Students are having great time during STEAM class.
It is wonderful to watch older students helping younger students, to witness students persisting through challenges and to see students of all ages sharing their wisdom with each other as they problem-solved through the tasks at each station.
We look forward to a whole semester of facilitating activities that are designed to promote the vitally important 21st Century skills of creativity, problem-solving and collaboration.

Financial help for Agnideva Prabhu

Agnideva Prabhu is beloved devotee and servant of Srila Prabhupada whose his voice has been heard in homes and hearts all over the world for over 40 years. You may have heard already that our dear Agnidev Prabhu is in hospital in Australia, suffering from a lung infection.

Unfortunately, he has been traveling without medical insurance and the hospital bills are mounting. It is still unclear how long he will need to stay in the hospital as the doctors are waiting to see how his body responds to the current treatment. An operation may be necessary which will require several weeks of recovery in a special ward. Each day in that ward costs approximately US $4,000.

Indradyumna Swami has set up a “Go fund me” account for those who would like to help Agnideva Prabhu and his family with these medical bills. We kindly request your support for Agnideva Prabhu in this time of great need. The goal is to raise $100,000. Here is the link to make a contribution http://www.gofundme.com/agnidevadas

The Power of Saintly Association: My Personal Asssociaion with my Guru, Shrila Prabhupada Part II
→ Karnamrita's blog

Author: 
Karnamrita Das

As I flew to L.A. from Hawaii, I brought a very fragrant flower garland. When I arrived at the Temple, I wanted to personally garland him, but a devotee guard downstairs from his room stopped me. I thought about going into his room anyway, though I was too hesitant and fearful. Eventually Prabhupada came down to give his lecture---it was the disappearance day of his guru, Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur. I was introduced by the local GBC and gave him the garland. He didn’t seem to really notice me, which upset me a bit. I was able to consider that he likely was absorbed in other thoughts, perhaps of his guru. This was the year he gave a famous talk about his guru where he became choked up with tears saying how we were all helping him serve Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta.
