An Offering for you

2 months, 3 weeks ago by AKD in Sankirtana / Temple Activity Reports

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

All glories to you on this day of your appearance

om ajñāna-timirāndhasya

jñānāñjana-śalākayā

cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena

tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ


“I offer my respectful obeisances unto my spiritual master, who with the torchlight of knowledge has opened my eyes, which were blinded by the darkness of ignorance.”

      yad yad ācarati śreṣṭhas

      tat tad evetaro janaḥ

      sa yat pramāṇaṁ kurute

      lokas tad anuvartate

'Whatever action a great man performs, common men follow. And whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues.'

Every time I remember your activities, always aimed at continuing Srila Prabhupada's wishes to spread Krsna's consciousness.

Thanks to your great effort to share your life through videos and publications, which introduce us to the method that Srila Prabhupad brought to us in a practical way.

You have turned your life into a great offering to SP

Just as srila prabhupad says in the light of the bhagavata(12): Because a person who is spiritually advanced accepts any adverse condition of life as the mercy of the Lord, he is completely eligible to enter into the spiritual kingdom. Even though a person takes to the devotional service of the Supreme Lord, he may sometimes become diseased, impoverished, or disappointed by life's events. A true devotee of the Lord always considers these sufferings to be due to past sinful activities, and thus without becoming disturbed he patiently awaits the mercy of the Supreme Lord. 

All the time adversities put us to the test, and your exemplary life motivates us to continue on the way to Krishna.

We can't thank you enough for all that you share with us, simply thank you very much.

praying that my life will be useful to your service: AniruddhaKrsna Das.


HpS - You are an inspiration to us.

You give life to so many people.

Srila Prabhupada is working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working, working to make us transcendental servants, again!!!

Thank you.

Illusory energy and Vibhuti of Krsna

2 months, 3 weeks ago by harsh_horse in Special Category A

Hare Krsna, Gurudeva, pamhO, agtSP

we were seeing the usage of word "GLARE" by Srila Prabhupada. There were things like GLARES of Brahamjyoti/ illusory energy/ Sun.


which made us ask question --

"How are dazzlement of Vibhuti of Krsna (which in node 15326 are referred as nice to see vibhutis and then realize how we are seeing an echo of KRSNA.) and dazzlement of illusory energy different. ?

we try to find Krsna in happiness in this wolrd, may be at hear we are still averse to his personal form.

SB 8.14.10 - There are many varieties of philosophers trying to search for the ultimate cause under different names and forms, but they are unable to find the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, who explains in Bhagavad-gītā that He is the origin of everything and the cause of all causes (ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ). This inability is due to the illusory energy of the Supreme Lord. Devotees, therefore, accept the Supreme Personality of Godhead as He is and remain happy simply by chanting the glories of the Lord.


HpS - A pure devotee sees that KRSNA, shyamasundara is the source of the Lion, Ocean, Sun, like a mother sees a painting done by her grown up son become a respected artist for a church as representing her son.

It can be more intense than the physical form of her son.

On the other hand, as you say, maybe we are willing to appreciate the energetic incarnation of Krsna but not surrender more to the personal form of Krsna.


The glare of the material energy stimulates our lust for sex, food, taste, honor, rational form. The vibhutimat manifestations stimulate, glare, about Krsna's form which we can serve. not exploit. OK?.

Reverencias Gurudeva!!!

Deity worship

2 months, 3 weeks ago by jagat pavitram in Personal Sadhana Reports

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaj

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Please accept my obeisances


In the year 2021, the feet of my deities (Nityananda) were broken while I was on a trip through the mountains, I spoke with some devotees and they gave me these answers:


1• Repair the deities by putting glue and worship them again

2• Do a fire ceremony to avoid paying Karma and use the broken deities as a base to make other deities


I am not sure if some of these recommendations are correct and I would like to hear your words


Thank you very much Guru Maharaj

Hare Krishna,

HpS - ASA -- I don't know, agtSP, what our Gaudiya Vaisnava Acharya's say. I don't think Srila Prabhupada mentions this too much or even at all in his books, so it can't be too much of an important point.

I would say that if you can make some nice repair, then you might want to go on worshiping Them. On the other hand if you feel that They want to leave Their present bodies and get new bodies, the that is nice also.

Then the old forms should be allowed to disappear, merge back into the external elements.. dissolve in the river or ocean. or maybe kept nicely in some part of your ashrama as retired form.
