2017 - In Appreciation. Ananda Vrindavaneshwari Devi Dasi: As the new year just started I am appreciating many things gained in 2017, especially all the different devotees who brought joy and inspiration to my life.

Money and an Illusory Sense of Security.
Dhirasanta Das Goswami: Money gives us a sense of freedom and ownership. We feel that with money, we can own anything or put a price tag on anybody’s services.
Ownership of something means total control of its existence from beginning to end. When we pay for a piece of land, we feel that we own it, although the land continues to exist even after the owner is long gone. How can you own something that outlives you?
Money also gives the idea that you are powerful and independent, blinding you to the fa...

Sydney New Years Eve Harinama (Album of photos)
Ramai Swami: It’s been a tradition for me that when I’m in Sydney for New Year’s Eve I go on Harinama around the Opera House, Circular Quay and Rocks area.
We usually go down a little early around 5 or 6pm because as the night goes on, it’s standing room only and even if we wanted to take a Harinama through, it’s impossible to move because of the tremendous crowds.
Pratapana and Jayasri organize this particular kirtan party and the devotees are in a joyous mood, chant...
