Planet ISKCON

Veda means knowledge. The word Veda is related to the Sanskrit root ‘vid’ meaning ‘to know’. So, it encompasses the entire corpus of knowledge, both phenomenal and numinous. Actually, knowledge is established through three primary epistemological premises, viz., sense perception, logical-mathematical inference and reliable testimony. However, when a subject employs inductive methodology to acquire knowledge, it is inhibited by four defects, viz., limited senses, illusory perception, mistaken inference and cheating propensity. As a result, inductive methodology cannot reliably establish any type of knowledge, let alone the ultimate conclusions on reality. (For instance, throughout history, men have died and they continue to die; but we can never conclude that man is mortal applying induction because there may be an unidentified man or a future man who will never die).

Harinama in Poland (2 min video)
In 1967 at ISKCON’S first temple, at 26 Second Avenue, New York City, Srila Prabhupada had just received a postcard from his disciples in Montreal. The city was hosting the World’s Fair – Expo ‘67 – and the devotees were asking if he had any paintings they could display at the Fair. Prabhupada showed me the postcard and asked if we had any. “Well, Swamiji,” I said, “We have a painting of Lord Varaha just finished by Kancanabala Dasi. But I don’t think people will believe it.” After all, the picture showed Lord Varaha, Krsna in His incarnation as a giant boar, holding the Earth on his tusks and fighting with a big demon. The demon was at least ten times bigger than the Earth itself. Prabhupada didn’t care for my objection. Instead, he told me a relevant story about Lord Caitanya. “When Lord Caitanya was thinking of going to Benares, the devotees told Him not to waste His time there. The people there were all impersonalists, and they wouldn’t believe in or take part in the chanting of Hare Krsna. But Lord Caitanya said, ‘If they don’t like what I have to sell, I’ll take it back.’ ” Prabhupada then raised his arms in the air, imitating Lord Caitanya. “So He chanted Hare Krsna and danced and everyone bought it.” He was impressing upon me, as he often did, to present Krsna “as He is” and not be overly concerned about “so-called public opinion.”

This is the last part of the Braj Parikrama 2016 series of posts.

Chir ghat

India is the land of making easy things impossible and impossible things easy. No-one of western decent would have thought that muddy pits leading to Chir ghat were passable with a bicycle let alone our big bus, but we prayed and our driver hit the pedal. It was at least an hour and half before we could disembark, hitching up our saris and dhotis. Maharaj later compared it to the Vitarani river described in the Bhagavatam; a river of unspeakable substances that separates us from the spiritual world. “It’s the price we pay,” he said, putting things into perspective.

In search of the main temple, our harinama team part took a detour through a remote village. The residents ran out of their simple homes to greet us with bright and eager “Radhe Radhe” smiles. The energy was very different from our usual visits. No one tried to hit us up for a donation. Even the dogs seemed well cared for. It was easy to see that despite the occasional jeans-clad teenager, culture still existed; cows, patterned cow dung patties and rice husks all received an eco-friendly thumbs-up.

After a wrong turn or two, we reached the village mandir. A 4m wide wall art boasted a 3-D depiction of Krsna sitting in a Kadamba tree and beckoning the gopis to rise from the Yamuna and receive their clothes which he had stolen. It was this pastime that made this village glorious. On the left was a tiny alter with sweet pair of Radha Krsna Deities. Adjacent to the altar was a tall Kadamba tree with multi-coloured fabric tied on its branches. Maharaj perched himself on a low wall and began a mellow bhajan. Villages dutifully visited the temple offering their respects. Kids gathered nearby and an eccentric looking pujari, with long hair and a 15cm thick wooden belt across his waist, kindly kept their curiosity in check. Maharaj broke off into ‘Hare Haraya Namah’, petitioning the mercy of Krsna’s names, Lord Gauranga and the previous acaryas. He switches to a popular melody of Madhava Prabhu with a KK swami flavour, takes it up a few gears into a dancing kirtan and ends mellow once more.

Dry sand stretches out in front of us where the Yamuna once flowed. Maharaj begins with poetic verses glorifying the Yamuna which he had penned down in a little notebook. Some verses were by Visvanatha Chakravati Takur and others from the Gopal Champu. He elaborated on the sacred place in which we found ourselves; a little further back was Ramaghat, a place dedicated to lord Balarama. And further ahead was Nandaghat, where Nanda Maharaj was arrested by Varuna for bathing at an improper time just so that Varuna could get the darshana of Krsna. Maharaj recollected how the previous year we had an unexpected detour to Tapovana, the forest of austerity, before reaching Chirghat. And austerity in devotion service became a theme that he latched onto. Chanting 16 rounds, following the 4 regulative principles and eating only Krsna prasadam was our austerity as followers of Srila Prabhupada.

He mentioned that the spiritual world is a place of worship, when the devotees saw each other they would offer arati. The relationships were not cheap. The Gopis didn’t see Radha as just “the best gopi” but as guru and worshipped her as such. That is culture of the spiritual world and our movement is meant to be transparent to the spiritual world.

It was the disappearance day of Srila Gaura Kishore Das Babaji Maharaj as well as ekadasi and a kind devotee prepared a light but sumptuous lunch for us. Back in the bus our driver eventually found Ramaghat (which was meant to be our first stop), yet it was still quite a hike away and Maharaj and Adi Kesava decided against it. As we neared Vrindavana our bus was stopped and prevented entry. After some conversations between the driver, the police and Maharaj, all of which was undecipherable to me, we were ordered off the bus. Maharaj got into manager mode, rallied some auto-rickshaws, stacked us into them. And what seemed like an impossible ten inches to squeeze into became possible. Because India is such a place where the easy becomes impossible and the impossible becomes easy.

Unchagaon

The final day of our parikrama was reserved for Unchagaon. The birthplace of Srimati Lalita devi has been one of Maharaj’s favourite places of pilgrimage. Year after year he chose to go back to this quaint village. He sometimes would watch Bhakti Caitanya Swami’s DVD on the ‘Hills of Varsana’ to remember this sacred place.

Unchagaon, or the “high village” lives up to its name and we climbed to the white domed temple that housed deities of Sri Sri Lalita Behari. Lalita devi is 27 days older than Srimati Radharani and is definitely the gopi in charge. She tries to protect Sri Radha from an unreliable Krsna. One should never enter a temple empty handed; we enter with the offering of the holy name. As the bhajans warmed up the local pujari and some children of vraja joined in the dancing with care-free flourish. A little girl ran to her home and returned with rotis, subji and a canister of butter-milk and offered then to Maharaj and the devotees. Maharaj summarised the different holy places we would visit that day and soon we were on our way.

Descending the high hill we veered to the right to find the Dauji Temple, housing unique deities of Balarama and Revati. This Lord Balarama is black in complexion, being fully absorbed in thought of Krsna. Lord Balarama is the giver of spiritual strength; definitely a place to pray.  There was also a deity of Laddu Gopal belonging to Narayana Bhatta Goswami, a disciple of Sri Gadadhara Pundit. Narayan Bhatta Goswami continued the work of Srila Rupa and Sanatana Goswami by escavating holy places in Vrindavana. it is said that Laddu Gopal would speak to him, directing him in his service.

On our way to Narayan Bhatta Goswami’s samadhi we stopped at the “Triveni Koop”, a well, said to be made by Krsna’s flute, containing the waters of three sacred rivers. And we got drenched with the mercy. At the samadhi Maharaj gave an indepth commentary on the Hansadutta. Approaching the Dham through the books of the goswamis was one of his aims in this parikrama. It was a multidimensional presentation. The Hansadutta is a discussion between Srimati Lalita devi and the swan that she choose to send an urgent message to Krsna about Srimati Radharani’s intense separation. Sri Lalita also represents guru tattva and the swan a neophyte disciple. Hidden in the verses of the Hansadutta is also the intricate dynamics of the guru disciple relationship. Lalita tries a variety of arguments to convince the swan to follow the path to Krsna. She gives him arguments both material and spiritual and tries to cajole him on, even though the swans own enthusiasm may be lacking or superficial. She encourages him that if he follows this path he will become a paramahamsa just by carring the message of the pure devotee. The swan not only has to be convinced but the swan has to embark on a process to become purified. In the end we never know if the swan goes or not. Maybe it is a question that each disciple has to answer for themselves. A brilliant presentation indeed.

During this final parikrama we were privleged to have to company of Medhavi prabhu, a disiciple of Srila prabhupada. Medhavi Prabhu is a thoughtful yet such a quite persona that he managed to pass unnoticed for almost half the parikrama. Maharaja recognised him and received him warmly.  We then journeyed down to Deha Kund, a lake at the base of two temples housing Sri Sri Deha Behari and Sri Sri Rasa Behari. Maharaja explained that Deha Kund is a place where we remember that our body, mind and words are all for Krsna. It is a lake of atmanivedanam or complete surrender; A place where the unsurrendered can hope and pray.

We then crossed over to the other side of the village to “Saki Parvat’. There the unthinkable happens; Krsna marries Lalita. We stayed only brief moments before climbing up the hill to the Chapan Katori. As always, Maharaj is the first up the hill. We settle down over the enlongated rock formation with 56 depressions resembling bowls or katories resembling an ” all- natural” dining table where Krsna and the cowherd boys would gather for lunch.

In the distance was the hills of Varsana enhanced by a gentle haze. Maharaj drew everyones attention to the hills as he spoke the final words of the parikrama. It had been a spiritual adventure; priceless, precious and profound. He had truly given all his energy, and then some more, determined to do it justice. On a physical level he had to detach himself from his body just to endure it. On a spiritual level our souls were dancing. And now it had reached its conclusion. We must take Vrindavana with us; it is more than just a place, it is a state of consciousness; a place for Krsna’s pleasure. He tasked us to come back, again and again, with others and to show them the holy places that he had kindly shown us. In this way the glory of Vrindavana will always reach fresh ears and penetrate deeper into our hearts.

30. Ask people working in shops if they would like a book.
31. Approach business owners (especially Indians) and ask if they would like to buy books in bulk to distribute to employees.
32. Start a book table at your University or College campus.

34. You can distribute books on e-bay, Amazon, or other websites like those.
35. Distribute through flyers: Create and distribute flyers that have the Krishna.com website (or your local temple book shop). Include pictures, excerpts, testimonials, your local number, website, and email.
36. Take people’s e-mails, and don’t “sell” the books, but inform and inspire them to take.
37. Next time you take a flight; just place a couple books in the magazine pockets of the seats. The next group of passengers will be in for a pleasant surprise.
38. Leave books on the magazine tables in reception areas of businesses, professional offices, and other establishments.
39. If you can’t distribute books yourself, help someone who already is for example, you can buy books for them to distribute.
40. Assist devotees who want to distribute books by covering their other temple services etc.
41. You can get a street address listing from some phone companies. You could choose any little town that may never have a chance to see devotees or you may want to take responsibility for a particular section of a larger city. Set aside a small portion of your monthly income and send out a few books each month until you’ve covered your chosen area.
42. Setup a cake sale or cookie sale at work or in the town, for every donation to the prasadam include the cost of the book as a “free” incentive.

Find your Jaladuta!
Driving past the San Francisco airport this morning, I saw a jet lift off the runway and then mystically disappear into the low hanging fog above.
For a second, in my mind’s eye, I imagined the jet’s passengers sitting together in neat rows, each with their own unique destinations and purposes. Each one bought a ticket, packed bags, thrashed about through security, and finally piled on the plane to go … Somewhere.
If we interviewed each passenger on that jet leaving SFO, we might discover some of their motives or obligations: “Earning a livelihood, going on vacation, seeing friends and family, performing some meritorious or nefarious work,” and so on.

Next, my mind turned to Srila Prabhupada and his coming to America on the Jaladuta. He begged the ticket only to endure a life-threatening trip across the ocean. But he too had a specific reason for his journey which he wrote about before his arrival at Boston Harbor, thus:

“Although my Guru Maharaja ordered me to accomplish this mission, I am unworthy to do it, being very fallen and incompetent. That being the case, O Lord Krsna, Your mercy is today arising in a befitting manner in order to make me become worthy, for You are most wise.

“In spite of my shortcomings, O Lord, You have somehow or other brought me to this country just to speak about You. Now it is up to You, my Lord, to do with me as You like.” (Prayer to the Lotus Feet of Lord Krsna & Markine Bhagavata-Dharma)

In the Gita, Krsna says: “Everyone is forced to act helplessly according to the qualities he has acquired from the modes of material nature; therefore no one can refrain from doing something, not even for a moment.” (Bg. 3.5)

But Srila Prabhupada’s travel on the Jaladuta was not impelled by the modes of nature. His hard labor in crossing the ocean was directed by his spiritual master who asked him to perform the service of preaching to Westerners. His voyage was transcendental and will forever stand out in history.

In the Gita, Krsna imparts to us one of the great secrets of life by teaching us how to distinguish between action and inaction:

“One who sees inaction in action, and action in inaction, is intelligent among men, and he is in the transcendental position, although engaged in all sorts of activities.” (Bg. 4.18)

A person who moves for Krsna – by following the order of the spiritual master – is in the transcendental position. His or her movements are different from the movements of those going somewhere on their own, to fulfill a selfish agenda.

All the trouble the devotee undergoes to realize the plan of the spiritual master is purifying and liberating. On the other hand, the difficulties I undergo for myself are simply troublesome; moreover, they implicate me in a multitude of karmic reactions.

A fortunate person takes to heart the directive of the spiritual master and then works to fulfill it, however demanding it may seem.

Even Srila Prabhupada said that he could not at once fulfill the order of his guru. But, he took it to heart and engaged in a lifetime of preparation to execute it.

One may not immediately or easily renounce obligatory work. But, one who finds his or her own Jaladuta – and braves the voyage – is the best traveler of all, for he or she will sail back to Godhead.

BOB HOPE and American ex-president Gerald Ford meet the devotees.
Drumila das: I met Bob Hope twice. The 1rst time was in the mid 80’s. I personally went to the Bob Hope Golf Classic as I was in Palm springs at the time, and decided it would be a good place to go and give stars books. I was walking around with a paper shopping bag full of books that day so as not to be discovered by security and be kicked out (seems pretty silly in retrospect….a paper shopping bag!!).
That day I gave books to a few sport legends like Bobby Or, Willie Mays and Barry Bonds to name a few. I ran into Robert Stack from the TV series ‘The Untouchables’ and tried to give him a 'Coming Back’ but he wouldn’t take it cause he thought it was from a cult, and his own son had been in one so he had a bad taste. I preached to him for about five minutes explaining to him that we were not a cult, and all the reasons why, at which time he said he would take the book home with him and read it.
Just remembered, I gave a 'Higher Taste’ to Dinah Shore that day, and she was thrilled cause she had just put out her own cookbook.
Anyway back to Bob. I saw him about to tee off on one hole. So I watched him with about 50 other people, by a roped off area.
When he was done, I said “Bob!” to catch his attention. He looked over at me, and said, “Yes!”(his head perking up and looking gleefully in my direction) and I said “ I have a gift for you!” I handed him a 'Coming Back’ and a 'Higher Taste’ upon which time I looked at him and said enthusiastically, “Bob… You’re really going to love these books!!” With a coy grin he looked and me and said enthusiastically, “Am I!? Am I!?” Of course I must have said something like 'Yes!’ or 'Definitely!’
The crowd dispersed and I started thinking how I could directly gave a book to ex President Ford who happened to be there that day. About a month before I had given a 'Bhagavad-Gita’ hardbound to ex President Ford via his security team( he was standing about 25 feet away and they would not let me give it to him directly but said they would give it to him).
Anyway President Ford was at the golf tournament that day, and I was thinking how I could approach him and give him a book directly. So the idea came to me. “Wait a minute I thought, "Bob Hope is friends with all the presidents! He was very friendly with me. Perhaps he could help me with President Ford.”
So I went to the next hole where he was and I approached him again. I said, “Bob, could you do me a favor…( what was I thinking). He immediately retreated, or withdrew as it were from my presence, turning his face away from me in the other direction. I realized I had made a big mistake, and had presumed to much, as I walked away feeling foolish and dejected.
Then a funny thing happened. As I was walking, moping along with my shopping bag in hand, I noticed a golf cart in my peripheral vision, going about the same speed as I was walking. It was Bob Hope driving the cart with the women’s champ from the year before, Julie Inkster. He looked at me and yelled out jokingly, "Hey, what do got in the bag? A bunch of divets!?( clumps of grass made after hitting the golf ball. People collect them for keep sakes.) After saying this they both sped away briskly laughing all the way. To this day I took it that Bob let me off the hook, by speaking to me again, thus, letting me know everything was alright.
Later that day I put down my paper bag(I had that much common sense), and made a bee line right for President Ford just after he tee’d off. His security were momentarily covered over and no one stopped me. I handed him an Origins magazine(our Krsna Conscious rebuttal to the atheistic magazine Omni.) I explained how he cared about the people in the world, and how this magazine could help him in his endeavors to help the people of the world. But he seemed rather put off as he trembled(his arm literally shaking with the magazine in it), as he turned around with a look of disgust and hurled it into his golf cart. He was probably wondering how I got through his security, or maybe he was just adverse to Krsna in the form of the magazine!
The next time I met him Bob Hope was in New Orleans. I overheard someone say Bob Hope was in 'Pat O'Brian’s’(a famous restaurant/bar).
I went in, and there was Bob, a hundred years old. He was sitting at the table alone(his eyes were drooping and showing the red around the borders) His wife was standing up with 3 or four friends nearby the table. They seemed pretty oblivious to Bob, so I took my cue, and went right up to him and said, "Bob, I don’t know if you remember me, but, I met you at your Classic in the 80’s and gave you a couple of books, and you were joking with me.”
He looked up at me and acknowledged what I had just said. Then I said, “I have gift for you also today. I sat right down next to him at the table, Then I said, "It’s a book called 'A Second Chance’( it was hardbound). Then I flipped through the pictures, with the Yamadutas and Visnudutas, and Ajamila laying on his deathbed, all the while explaining to Bob the story of Ajamila and how he was saved at the time of death by uttering God’s Holy Name.
As I left him I marveled at the special mercy he was receiving from Krishna in his final days( he died shortly after that) and how kind Krishna was to come to him near the end of his life, and how kind Krsna was to let me be his instrument to give him that mercy.
Srila Prabhupada’s Transcendental Book Distribution ki Jaya!

The history of FATE- Iskcon Museum Project (video)
Adi Deva das: Devotees named Srimati dd and Prabhas das were already working with Milan. Murti d, Bibhavati devi dasi, Madhavendra Puri das, Baradraj das, Rukmini devi dasi, Saptaratha das, and myself joined the team learning how to make clay tools from pieces of bamboo- how to find and dig up sticky clay and sandy clay. We learned how to mix clay with cow dung juice and other mysteries. We began sculpting fruits, vegetables, animals, birds, noses, eyes, ears, lips, fingers, toes, armatures, straw tying, clay application. We created small dolls, large dolls, sanding, painting, wigging, clothing and jeweling. Milan was expert and showed us everything.
On Gaura Purnima 1974 we put on a humble exhibition for Srila Prabhupada’s approval. He told us that we were" not yet expert" and should hire another teacher and continue learning. We hired another older artist who was very generous in helping us develop our skills.
Our group shrunk and the few of us left went to Vrndavana where for several months we created 8 Gopi dolls and presented them to Srila Prabhupada.
Bharadraj das and Rukmini Dasi were asked by Srila Prabhupada to travel to India and lead the project of bringing this dying Art of Putul (Clay Dolls) to the West and create museums explaining our philosophy thru this medium.
My friend Murti das received an inheritance shortly after we were invited to travel to India; so we got the initial paperwork and shots and off we went. Our plane (Air India) had problems; we stopped in NYC, then Kuwait, then Bombay and finally landed in the long cow pasture which was the Calcutta airport. Bhavananda Maharaj picked us up in an old Jeep and drove us the two hour bumpy drive to Sridham Mayapura. Mayapura sits upon the banks of the Ganges River and is a holy place of pilgrimage for saintly devotees from all over West Bengal and beyond.
Upon our arrival, we were greeted by a small group of devotees from Europe, Australia, and North and South America. I soon realized my new home was the vortex of a construction site. A half built, three story temple/guest house sat one- fifth of a mile from a little used main road. Other temples on that road looked tired and sleepy. Across the road were a series of fields, then the Ganges river, and the town of Navadvip on the other side.
To get from the main road (Bhaktisiddhanta Marg) to our temple in progress we had to walk through rice fields on a mud path about two feet wide; one slip and you were knee deep in mud.
The temple was covered in a web of bamboo scaffolding with many Bengali workers scurrying all over it, as they brought their bricks and buckets of cement. Encamped on one side of the temple in low huts and tents, they were a loud and jolly bunch. We slept in unfinished rooms on the first and second floor; Srila Prabhupada’s quarters and guest quarters on the third floor with sanyasis’ quarters on the roof.
All water came from one hand pump–for our bathing, cooking, pot washing, cement mixing, workers’ bathing–ONE HAND PUMP!
In this video I talk about the letter I received from Srila Prabhupada outlining his vision for the project.

The Lord advised Arjuna to regulate the senses from the very beginning so that he could curb the greatest sinful enemy, lust, which destroys the urge for self-realization and specific knowledge of the self. Jnana refers to knowledge of self as distinguished from non-self, or in other words, knowledge that the spirit soul is not the body. Vijnana refers to specific knowledge of the spirit soul’s constitutional position and his relationship to the Supreme Soul. Continue reading "From Lust to Love–With Krsna’s Mercy
