Lion Beats Cinematography’s 11 min. movie about Krishna Janamastmi 2016 @ ISKCON Hare Krishna Temple of Auckland, New Zealand.
Srila Prabhupada: Svalpam apy asya dharmasya trayate mahato bhayat: even a little devotional service can save one from the greatest danger. Devotional service, which begins with chanting of the holy name of the Lord, is so powerful that even if one falls down, he can be saved from all calamities if he somehow or other chants the holy name of the Lord. This is the extraordinary power of the Lord’s holy name. (Srimad-B...

Srila Prabhupada: The process of chanting the holy name of the Lord is always superbly effective, but it is especially effective in this age of Kali. All the great authorities of bhakti-yoga recommend the devotional process beginning with the chanting of the holy name of Krishna (tan-nama-grahanadibhih). (Srimad-Bhagavatam, 6.1.21 Purport)

Janmastami 2016 - Goloka Dhama Germany, Temple of Sri Sri Radha Madana Mohana (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: “My heart is always burning in the fire of material existence, and I have made no provisions for getting out of it. The only remedy is hari-nama-sankirtana, the chanting of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra, which is imported from the spiritual world, Goloka-Vrndavana. How unfortunate I am that I have no attraction for this. (Srimad-Bhagavatam, 5.1.22 Purport)

Srila Prabhupada: The Vedic scriptures say: “Even if one distributes ten million cows in charity during an eclipse of the sun, lives at the confluence of the Ganges and Yamuma for millions of years, or gives a mountain of gold in sacrifice to the brahmanas, he does not earn one hundredth part of the merit derived from chanting Hare Krishna.” (Sri-Caitanya-caritamrta, Adi-lila, 3.79 Purport)

Krsna Janmastami and Srila Prabhupada Vyasa Puja in Lagos, Nigeria (Album with photos)
Kavicandra Swami: It was very nice!
Surely not gigantic like in UK or New Dwaraka, but everything is relative. We had many local Nigerian and devotees and new guests. Many devotees stayed for the night and mangal arotika for Vyasa Puja was very crowded.
Kirtans in Africans are always high energy and this time was very sweet, altho often TOO loud for me.
Many devotees worked at decorating and cooking. Nigeria is in the midst of a serious economic crisis. ...

Krishna Janmashtami Special: ISKCON Hare Krishna Temple, Chennai.
My favourite part in the temple is the walls which are adorned with the mesmerising paintings of Lord Shree Krishna and all His adorable pastimes. Since we are celebrating His birthday, Krishna Janmashtami today, I thought of presenting those paintings with a few Quotes from The Bhagavad Geeta.
Life can seem tough or confusing sometimes and you don’t really understand the way, but through the vast treasure chest of knowledge and guidance He left us in the form of the sacred Bhag...

As Vasudeva-suta, Krsna performs pastimes that, for the most part, prominently review His power and opulence, while as Nanda-suta He performs only humanlike pastimes that prominently reveal His sweetness. Vasudeva-suta’s lila is clothed in opulence while decorated with sweetness, like an opulent mirror decorated with an attractive picture. By contrast, Nanda-suta’s lila is clothed in sweetness while decorated in opulence, like a beautifully painted stage curtain decorated at the bottom with a row of opulent mirrors. Both these forms of Krsna are...
