I was discharged from the hospital and returned home about a week ago.
It is so nice to come back to Mayapur and continue my service in TOVP.
I still haven't fully recovered, but luckily I'm able to take a short walks and also go to my office a few days a week to do my service.
Thanks everyone for your prayers for my recovering.

In March 2020 we published our first video in English. Back then we still had no idea what was coming up...To be honest, even to this day sometimes it feels unreal to see how big our channel has grown, how many people it has reached and inspired for positive changes. Filming, video editing, storytelling, online preaching were never our skills, we didn't study or knew much about it before, but I guess when Krishna wants you to be an instrument in His hands all these details don't matter that much. And now we have to admit: it's been an amazing journey, sometimes to...

In a lecture on March 8, 1966, Srila Prabhupada instructed that if we want to do something good for our families we should try to make them Krishna Conscious, then our lives will be successful. Communities are the sum of the individuals who make up those communities. If our family units are strong then the communities that we collectively represent will be strong as well.

The pandemic is heavily affecting ISKCON devotee communities around the world as there is lack of resources and access to medical equipment and facilities especially for those in rural devotee communities such as Mayapur and Bangladesh. Over 7000 devotee families in Mayapur and Bangladesh are struggling to feed and take care of their families because of the situation. It is heart-wrenching to see these devotees suffering, leaving their bodies, having no access to any basic items.

By Aditya Varna Devi DasiHow beautiful on the mountain are the feet of those who bring good news (Isaiah 5:27) Through her sharp camera lens and with the point of her pen HG Visakha Dasi takes us on a roller coaster ride through the near 6 years, of her life from 1971 to 1977. Something extraordinary happened to this self-confessed, proud atheist. A Darwinian, which was as she points out the intellectually held position of the day. She traveled to India, camera in tow to meet up with her boyfriend and very much in the mood of an Anthropologist, to capture a culture diametrically opposite to the American...

By the GBC SPTLord Nrsimha roars loudly and causes others to roar. With His multitudes of arms, He tears the demons asunder and kills them in this way. He is always seeking out and tormenting the demoniac descendants of Diti, both on this earth planet and in the higher planets, and He throws them down and scatters them. He cries with great anger as He destroys the demons in all directions, yet with His unlimited hands He sustains, protects, and nourishes the cosmic manifestation. I offer my respectful obeisances to the Lord, who has assumed the form of a transcendental lion.”

By Syamasundara dasaThe world population are looking for answers to the world’s problems. We read how by taking care of the cow and bulls one earns happiness. Surely we should be working to practically demonstrate this to ourselves first and then express that working model to the world. If we don’t talk about the oxen then the ox disappears from our society as we can see practically. Occasionally you may come across a working ox, but mostly they are kept as zoo animals and work by raising donations, but surely we are meant to be in close synchronization with the words of Lord Caitanya and be eating our ...

By Andrew HallumI was repeatedly asked, "What was Jim like in school?" Well, you know, that was quite a few years ago. I had even forgotten, or just not given a thought to the fact that Jim and I lived in the same cabin in summer camp. I forgot that until I came upon the 1951 camp photo. And the photo of Jim on the front of the chariot is unrecognizable because of the years, the Hare Krishna robes Jim is wearing, and because as they said, the photo is not a good one because it was not taken until Jim was very ill. I told them that Jim was very funny. They ...

By Vishoka dasFrom Jayananda's mother, taken from Radha-Damodara Vilasa by Vaiyasaki Dasa – Mrs. Kohr: At the age of four he was taken to a service in what we call the big church in Dayton, Ohio. He was very restless, standing up in the sanctuary and looking around. His grandmother inquired, “Jimmy, what's wrong? What are you doing? What are you looking for?” “Where is God?” he replied. Gaynelle Kohr Pietrangelo (Jayananda's sister) Jim was kind to animals, too. I know he was on a beach in California an...
