Sun is reflecting whose light Goloka / Garbhodakaśāyī Vishnu

1 week, 1 day ago by harsh_horse in Special Category A

Hare Krsna Gurudeva, PAmHO, agtSP

We remember you saying that, SP said all this books are written to convince one of chanting of Hare Krsna.

We also know that you have realised the importance of Chanting.

Alas! we have not, hence we started reading Books, long way but still eternal progress.



hps//asa - yes, agtSP. yes, even if it is all completely stupid, it is still far and away the best illusion in the universe!!

nothing in our universe makes us doubt SP and his book KRSNA The SPOG!!!


https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/3/26/3/ says


Sunlight is also the reflection of the brahmajyoti. Similarly, brahmajyoti, the spiritual effulgence, is a reflection of the body of the Supreme Lord.


Although the supreme light is situated in His personal abode, Vaikuṇṭha or Vṛndāvana, His light is diffused not only in the spiritual world but beyond that. In the material world also, that light is reflected by the sun globe, and the sunlight is reflected by the moon globe. Thus although He is situated in His own abode, His light is distributed all over the spiritual and material worlds.


Now as we understood the from https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/3/26/52/ this multi layer universal egg. This brahmjyoti may not be able to cross these many layers.


May be scriptures are referring to bodily effulgence of Visnu from whose naval Brahma ji appears.


we are trying to understand difference between mundane sound, and Hari Naam which has descended to this world?


Trying to serve Hayagriva Avatar Das.


asa - the sunlight in my room is coming through the window glass. some falls directly on my keyboard. the window glass is probably opaque to ultra violet.

some is striking the keyboard after being reflected off, re-generated from, the brown colored walls.


the screen is powered by electricity that comes from solar energy from hydroelectric dams.


so it is all echos, reflections of the sun.

if i face the holy names directly. face srila prabhupada's lotus feet directly and chant that is one realation to the holy names. if i read his books that is ... different ... relation to the holy names.

if i hit my finger with a hammer while pounding a nail and say, "God dammit" that is different relation, incarnation, of the holy name.

But I did not say, "sex" or "excrement".


is this related to your enquirery????? 🐵 🔭

All glories to Goura Nitay


All glories to Srila Prabhupada


Dear Gurudev, this is a small glorification to the lotus feet of Srila Prabhupada and to you for following his instructions and inspiring me at every moment of my spiritual process.


Whenever I think of this moment, I am filled with emotion for what this day of Vyasapuja means, remembering my beginnings as a devotee and the instructions you have given me throughout these years.


Without the mercy of Srila Prabhupada and yours, this would not have been achieved. I have understood in these years that instructions are the most important thing to advance to Krishna.


Thank you very much for everything, dear Gurudev, for helping me advance every day and being an example for Krishna consciousness. May Srila Prabhupada be happy with my service.


HpS - This is nice prayer for anyone, me. Thank you.

Also, so many people have helped you, us, in ISKCON, no???

Even those who just come to the Temple, festivals, and exchange smiles with us.

Maybe we don't even know their names, but we recognize them as regular community members!!


Living in a world of lovers.

Whilst it is impossible for a disciple to repay the debt to The Guru, however, like a father is pleased when his babies offer a sweet to him, bought from the money they recieved from thier Dad

We (Tungavidya Mataji, Vrajajanaranjan Prabhu, Gaura Gadadhara Devi Dasi and this lowly servant) are only capable of offering a few broken words in celebration of your Divine appearance.


Also Guru Maharaj this is my first ever attempt at using a Video Editing software, so please forgive the amateurish presentation.



The Video for your pleaure and for all our God siblings , hopefully can be found by copying the Link below into the browser.

hen pecked husband

1 month ago by harsh_horse in Special Category A

Hare Krsna, Gurudeva, agtSP, PAmHO

Krsna went to Indra lok, to please his wife Satyabhama.

From Ramayana we learned that wife's demand (deer one) can lead to problem for both (husb and wife).


SP says in Krsna book, Krsna acted as henpecked husband.


In other places ,too much attachment to wife is condemned.


Your views please? what is the principal/ role in earthly sphere.


I know its kaliyuga it might not work, but whats the direction it should work


Das of monkey mind to Hayagriva


HpS - We don't, agtSP, understand the question? 

Should men accept being conquered by men in the Kali yuga?

I don't think Rama was hen pecked, but He wanted to satisfy Sita. Arjuna wanted to Satisfy Draupadi... This is described in 5th canto as an example for common people about what havoc too much material attachment for wife can happen for everyone.


Smart wife can understand this also and not let her husband become too attached to her.


In Kali Yuga, parasara says that women conquer men, unmarried girls become mothers and rogues conquer kings.

so we should expect this but.... by the mercy of Gauranga Nitia, Ninth Canto, we can live as if in the Satya yuga and see relations between men and woman on a superior level to that of Kali yuga.

Of course, we have to take shelter of Rama, Prabhupada, Hanuman.

O.K.?

Hare Krishna, Guru Maharaj.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Please accept my obeisances.


The name "Spiritual Revolution" comes from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.5.11, when Nārada Muni tells Vyāsadeva: “transcendental words directed toward bringing about a revolution.”

"Spiritual Revolution" is actually a video production center focused on presenting the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam in an audiovisual format. Here I share a short 1-minute excerpt:


https://youtu.be/EcXuoqwiY_w


All the images were created using artificial intelligence. Initially, I wanted the logo of the Congregational Preaching Ministry to appear, but now I think it’s better to be independent.

The YouTube channel was created in 2021 and has had over 100,000 views. Many devotees in Latin America thank me for the work and also ask me to continue this service. I also feel happy, and thanks to this service, I can stay spiritually alive.


I presented my project to HG Rukmini Krishna das when he visited Peru, and he liked it a lot. I can also present it to P. Maturesh and another senior devotee when they visit Lima.


Thank you very much Guru Maharaj for giving me your instructions, and please continue to guide me.

HpS - AgtSP. I think Tapan misra Das, Ministry of Education also uses that title a lot. Viplavah?

Thank you so much.

I think as you engage in Sankirtan, that will automatically give you impetus on how to improve it. Advice, inspiration, accidents!!

Do it.
