The beautiful arati ceremony at Radhakunda 2018 (Album of photos)
Srila Prabhupada: Horse is controlled by the mouth. Therefore you have seen the harnesses are fixed in the mouth, the driver controls the mouth, and the horse goes. So Krishna was a boy. How did He know that “This Kesi has come in the shape of a horse. If I have to control him, I will have to control his mouth.” So he pushed His hand within the mouth of the horse, and the horse felt it was just like a hot iron bar, so he died. Similarly, when Krishna fought with Aristasura, ...

Everyone’s not that happy about the lax Canada cannabis rules.
Bhaktimarga Swami: Long day. Long waits. Delhi. Amsterdam. Then Toronto Airport. New computers at customs. No paper. Just pressing some buttons. A long enough indoor walk to the outside. Time to think. What did I think? I remembered several brahmacharis coming to me on the last day at Kanpur. Those monks were saying, “We’ll miss you,” because we had the best times before the deities of Krishna. We were singing and we were swinging with new moves—for t...

Please distribute Srila Prabhupada’s nectar! (15 min video)
Srila Prabhupada: Vrindavan does not require to be modernized because Krishna’s Vrindavan is transcendental village. They completely depend on nature’s beauty and nature’s protection. The community in which Krishna preferred to belong was Vaisya community because Nanda Maharaja happened to be a Vaisya king, or landholder, and his main business was cow protection. It is understood that he had 900,000 cows and Krishna and Balarama used to take charge of them, along with ...

Music as Meditation-the kirtan experience.
Laksmi Nrsimha Das: I’m sure many musicians have had a meditative experience while playing in a band or orchestra or even playing one’s instrument alone. Long ago, in the early 70’s, I was a percussionist for a well-known NYC folksinger named Steve Baron. Steve and I had a music connection that ran deep. We never rehearsed, yet many of our concerts, small and large, would catapult us into an almost meditative trance, free of anxiety or loss of focus. Our audience would similarly get swept up...

The Anatomy of Bhakti - Garuda das (audio)
We will hear about the overall structure of Bhakti Yoga but we will also learn about little-understood aspects of the subtle nature of Bhakti’s dynamics. Yoga is not something static and Bhakti is not preoccupied with perfection; rather, especially, in this harvest season, they both strive to harvest greater and greater levels of loving service, and loving connections with the divine and all beings.

Bhakta Omkar gets his Srimad Bhagavatam set.
Shastrakrit Das: After reading 5 books by Srila Prabhupada Bhakta Omkar chants japa daily. Today on the occasion of his mother’s birthday he requested his parents to get him a set of Srimad Bhagavatam. His father was worried about Omkar’s grades in school if he buys him all these 18 volumes of books. I assured his father that his son will do a hundred times better in school and life in general if he reads these books and his pious father became pacified. Such wonderful supportive parents this luc...

Kartik in the capital of South Africa (Album of photos)
Bhakti Chaitanya Swami: After the Sunday program in Lenasia we went to our ISKCON Pretoria temple and took part in the program there. Pretoria is the capital of South Africa, and our center has been established there for many years. The congregation is diverse, and it’s nice to see that in South Africa, where previously there was a great divide between races, devotees from all different backgrounds are coming together to practice Krishna consciousness.
