Rama Navami Abhiseka in Iskcon Slovenia (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: The devotees who have developed love of Godhead are certainly in an exalted position. Of all these devotees, the gopis are recognized as superior because they do not know anything other than satisfying Krsna. Nor do the gopis expect any return from Krsna. Indeed, sometimes Krsna puts them into extreme suffering by separating Himself from them. Nonetheless, they cannot forget Krsna. When Krsna left Vrndavana for Mathura, the gopis became most dejected and spent the rest of the...

Preaching in Nuremberg (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: So you have to constantly poke them, these rascals. Just like one man is sleeping. You have to call him constantly, “Mr. Such, Mr. Such, wake up, rascal. You are sleeping. Why?” This is our business. Uttisthata jagrata prapya varan nibodhata. That is sung by Bhaktivinoda Thakura. Kota nidra jao maya-pisacira kole: “How long you will sleep? You have got this opportunity, human form of life. Now get up.” Jiv jago, jiv jago, gauracanda bole. This is our mantra: “You ...

ISKCON Delhi celebrates 20th anniversary & Kirtan Mela (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: The bhaktivedantas are impartial in distributing the transcendental knowledge of devotional service. To them no one is enemy or friend; no one is educated or uneducated. No one is especially favorable, and no one is unfavorable. The bhakti-vedantas see that the people in general are wasting time in false sensuous things. Their business is to get the ignorant mass of people to reestablish their lost relationship with the Personality of Godhead. By such endeav...

Words: Jessica Bondaruk. Photos: Karuna Avatar das.
In the Krishna Book Srila Prabhupada writes that the “devotees of the Lord, are not selfish. Whatever benefits they derive from the Supreme Personality of Godhead as benedictions they want to distribute to all other persons. That is the greatest of all humanitarian activities.” (Krishna Book, Ch.43.)
When we think of humanitarian activities, we might think that it is about doing “good activities” -...

Boat cruise and Vrindavan Kirtana in Auckland, New Zealand (Album of photos)
Govinda dasi: Srila Prabhupada? So, our relationship with you as spiritual master has existed eternally in the past, or will exist eternally? Prabhupada: That don’t bother with it. Go on, do with minimum. Past and present, you are present, the commentary is just carry out the orders, that’s all. When you have accepted spiritual master, carry out, that’s all. cakhu-dan dilo jei, janme janme prabhu sei. Past means that, then you admit to your disciple, that i...

Giriraj Swami: This verse is quoted in Srila Rupa Gosvami’s Sri Padyavali: [Mother Yasoda is telling Sri Krishna a story:]
“There was once a king named Rama.”
“Yes.”
“His wife was Sita.”
“Yes.”
“On the order of His father, Rama lived in the Pancavati Forest. There Ravana kidnapped Sita.”
Hearing His mother narrate His own activities performed in ancient times, Sri Krishna suddenly called out, “Laksmana! Where is My bow? Where is My bow? Where is My bow?”

Iskcon New Govardhana - Harinama at Broadbeach - 18 March 2018 (Album of photos)
Srila Prabhupada: This is the mission of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, that you go and preach and make propaganda about krsna-upadesa. This is Krsna consciousness movement. We are teaching all our men how to spread krsna-upadesa, how to spread Krsna consciousness. Then anartha upasamam saksat. Then all the unwanted things he has contaminated will be finished. Then pure consciousness… Pure consciousness is Krsna consciousness. Pure consciousness means to understand that &...

ISKCON Zagreb — Sunday Feast: 18 March 2018 (Album with photos)
Srila Prabhupada: Sri Krsna, in His Paramatma feature, lives in the hearts of all living beings in both the transcendental and mundane creations. As the Paramatma, He witnesses all actions the living beings perform in all phases of time, namely past, present and future. Sri Krsna knows what the living beings have done for hundreds and thousands of past births, and He sees what they are doing now; therefore He knows the results of their present actions that will fructify in the future....

ISKCON Newcastle center in South Africa (Album of photos)
Bhakti Chaitanya Swami: We have been staying near our ISKCON Newcastle center in South Africa. Last night we had a pre-Ramnavami program with the devotees there. It’s a nice yatra, and they have a nice property which they’re developing. They already have a large hall, which they built, and a house behind it which they use as a temple, but they’re going to build a proper, purpose-built temple shortly.
