We will post your letter and it pushed us to read the Wikpedia site about ISIS.
We try to be sane in our own heart and then expand that to the world we meet!
How is your Japa??? Principles???
Radha-Madhava, Ki Jai.
========================================
Gauranga. Humbles and Glories. Please
forgive me asking you to post this essay because I am not
computer literate enough to find the blog.
At a book stand here in Mayapura I
bought a little book of quotes from Srila Prabhupada on
Islam and Krishna Consciousness. Prabhupada said that Islam
is Vaisnavism in as much as Mohammed taught that we should
love God. When I came into this internet cafe the owner was
looking at news of the Islamic State declaring war on India
because of the Hindus killing Muslims who eat beef. This was
horrible news to hear how the Islamic State will be doing
their terrorist attacks here in Bengal.
Mohammedan extremists interpret
cow protection to be a war against muslims. The Hindu groups
that beat cow slaughterers are not wanting to be violent,
they are just trying to save the cows who are being killed
in mass quantities by the Mohammedans. This kali yuga is
such a mess. We have a lot of work to do as Krishna's
devotees to try and deescalate the tension by bringing the
muslim villages prasadam and showing that we are all just
trying to love God in peace with one another. I am going on
a boat excursion tomorrow to do that.
Today at lunch prasadam we were
talking about Mayapura being the garden of Srimati
Radharani. In the Ananta Samhita Lord Shiva
told Parvati that in kali yuga Radha and Krishna will
combine to become Lord Gauranga, and to help the suffering
living entities in this age They will descend and spread the
sankirtan movement of Hare Krishna chanting, and bring
Radharanis garden so that people will have a place from the
spiritual world to take shelter.
Srimati Radharani had gathered her
sakhis together between the Ganges and Yamuna rivers. She
created there a beautiful place, decorated with creepers and
trees and filled with male and female bumble bees. Deer and
buck were happily enjoying as they wandered about, and the
whole area was filled with the fragrance of jasmine,
mallika, and malati flowers.
That
transcendental abode was adorned with tulasi forests and
decorated with various groves. On Radha's order, the
Ganges and Yamuna with their pleasant water and banks, acted
as a moat to protect the garden. Cupid himself along with
springtime, eternally reside here, and the birds constantly
sing the auspicious name of Krishna. Radha dressed in a
colorful cloth, then began to play a beautiful melody on a
flute in order to attract Krishna.
Attracted
by that melody, Krishna appeared in this enchanting place.
Radha the attractor of Krishna's mind, seeing that
Krishna had come, held his hand and experienced ecstatic
delight. Then Krishna understanding Radha's mood, spoke
in a voice choked with love, "Oh lovely faced Radha,
You are my very life. There is no one more dear to me than
you. Therefore I will never leave You. Just for me You have
created this wonderful place. The wise will call it
Mayapura. By My order, all the holy places will reside here.
Because You have created this place for My pleasure, I will
live here eternally."
I hope this meets you well.
Your Servant, Mishra Bhagavan
