Prabhupāda: You have to die. Stop this death; then there is credit. If I become proprietor of the house, that is credit. And if I am living for four days, if they give concession, "All right, you can live two days more," is that very great benefit? I'll have to leave it. Similarly, you will have to die, today or tomorrow. It doesn't matter.
Indian man: But only [indistinct] can stop this death...

Prabhupāda: Nobody is... Rascals and fools will that = "I'll not die today. Tomorrow I shall die." [laughter] This is rascal. This is rascal. These things will be done by the rascals. "I'll not die today. I'll die tomorrow." This is rascaldom.

Real master is Krsna. We have to give up this imitation

"So in the material world the varieties are reflection of the spiritual world. Here is also father, but this is imitation father. But there is also father, but that is not father..... It is imitation father. A friend is imitation friend. Real friend is Krsna. Real father is Krsna. Here husband, imitation husband. Real husband is Krsna.

Master, imitation master. Real master is Krsna. We have to give up this imitation."

Srila Prabhupada Speaks out:

Yes. A spiritual master must have seen Kṛṣṇa.

Without seeing, he cannot be spiritual master.

Srila Prabhupada..."Yes. A spiritual master must have seen Kṛṣṇa. Without seeing, he cannot be spiritual master. But how Kṛṣṇa can be seen? Kṛṣṇa can be seen by love. Premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena [Bs. 5.38]. Premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena santaḥ sadaiva hṛdayeṣu vilokayanti. Just like if you are in love with somebody, you can see him constantly—he is always on your eyes, anyone you love—so similarly, Kṛṣṇa also can be seen by development of love. Otherwise how we can see Kṛṣṇa? He is so great, unlimited. Your eyes, your senses, are all limited. You cannot see the unlimited by your limited sense perception. But you can see... Not you can see, but svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ. When you are developed in the sense of love o

Advaita Discussion Group; If jivas in maya ie the expanded energies of the perfect origin, have a tendency to Name and Form, then the originating source must also. sarva karana karanam; I am the original cause, says Govinda. Govinda has a Form and talks, He is not an empty room. Why build a room even, if it is to be empty in its perfect state? Negation of the purposes of said room is a type of voidism and madness unnatural to spiritual Self, which is full of sat chit ananda, having blissful form and activities of perfection. Annihilating perception may stop material involvements, but there is no positive involvement on the eternal plane of blissful activity and exchange.

For conditioned souls to discuss maya is like people in handcuffs discussing freedom. One is obliged to approach a free unbound or higher perfect source of information, such as Bhagavada Gita As It Is, in order to get right knowledge upon which to make right decisions. A bound man cannot readily untie another. If one

Prabhupada: We Vaiṣṇavas do not say that there is no need of fighting. We never say.

Posted by Tamohara dasa ADMIN. on September 10, 2020 at 9:31

Prabhupada: We Vaiṣṇavas do not say that there is no need of fighting. We never say. When there is need of fighting we must fight. Rather, somebody in New York, some Goldsmith, he was that, 'Why Krishna is advising Arjuna to fight, to become violent?'
So somebody protests like that. But there is no meaning of protesting against the action of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. That is our view. So we Vaiṣṇavas, we are chanting.
It does not mean that when there is need of fighting with avaiṣṇava (non-vaishnava) we shall lack in strength. We can fight. One gentleman inquired from me that 'Vaiṣṇavism makes one dull. He cannot act.' And, 'No. You have not seen a Vaiṣṇava.' In the two fightings, great fighting, the Rāmāyaṇa and Mahābhārata, the hero was Hanuman and Arjuna, and they fought.
Guest: They fought.
Prabhupada: Yes. And who can be better Vaiṣṇava than them?
Guest: Nobody.
Prabhupada: So Vaiṣṇava does not mean he is dull. No.
Guest: No, that is well proved. If there is need...

Hanumān: Excuse me; I have a lot of questions. I would like to ask you why we are so fortunate to have such a nice, genuine spiritual master as you, and some other have bogus spiritual master. Is it something of karma, or is this the pure mercy of yourself?

Prabhupāda: No, that you can think—your spiritual master is nice, others bogus—but they do not think like that. (laughter) They will think their spiritual master is good, your spiritual master is bogus. But... there is standard who is spiritual master. Spiritual master means who is the best servant of God. One who does not agree the existence of spiritual ma..., ah God, he is bogus because he's not bona fide. Mūḍhā. One who does not accept the existence of God, he is mūḍhā. He's a rascal. He cannot... A rascal cannot become spiritual master.

Hanumān: How come we come to you?

Prabhupāda: That is another thing, but first of all we have to know who is spiritual master. The spiritual master is he, samit-pāṇiḥ śrotriyaṁ brahma-niṣṭham (M

''Those who are demoniac do not know what is to be done and what is not to be done. Neither cleanliness nor proper behavior nor truth is found in them.
They say that this world is unreal, that there is no foundation and that there is no God in control. It is produced of sex desire, and has no cause other than lust.
Following such conclusions, the demoniac, who are lost to themselves and who have no intelligence, engage in unbeneficial, horrible works meant to destroy the world.''

Krishna smiled and started explaining to the Pandavas. “Arjuna, what you saw is how the relation between priests and devotees will be in Kaliyuga. The priests will have very sweet voice and great knowledge but they will exploit devotees.

The poor will live among the rich. The rich people will have massive amount of wealth which will keep increasing and overflowing but they will not offer a single penny to the poor ones. They will waste the money for themselves as they have more than what they need but they won’t be sharing it with those who are needy and suffering.

In Kaliyuga, the parents will love their children so much that their love itself will destroy the lives, dreams and the future of the children.

People will fall in the terms of character. They keep crushing and destroying everything on their way to success. Just like the boulder. They won’t listen to anyone. They will be unstoppable. They won’t follow the path of Dharma.

Asuras have infiltrated Srila Prabhupada's society and are working to change his teachings from within.

Here is just one example of the changes being made to his books (Chaitanya Charitamrita, Madhya Lila 19.157, purport):

Original paragraph:

"If one thinks that there are many pseudo devotees or nondevotees in the Krsna Consciousness Society, one can keep direct company with the spiritual master, and if there is any doubt, one should consult the spiritual master."

New corrupted version:

"Even if one thinks that there are many pseudo devotees or nondevotees in the Krsna Consciousness Society, still one should stick to the Society; if one thinks the Society's members are not pure devotees, one can keep direct company with the spiritual master, and if there is any doubt, one should consult the spiritual master."

Palaka Dasa, it was my assumption only that Rupanuga was a BBT trustee. I do not know whether he was or not. So if I am wrong my hearty apology. That is one thing!

Next it was in 1972 yes it was 1972 when Bali Mardan picked me up at Tiffany Place ISKCON Press, in his car, and told me to get in and sit in the back as he was going to pick up Sankirtan devottees. He knew I was austere and so he wanted to know my opinion on Srila Prabhupada's decision that all GBC members take sannyas and thus retain their post.

My not much appreciated, forthcoming and immediate answer was, "I think it is a very good idea - the GBC they should be the most austere." So if Karandhara was GBC maybe he did not take sannyas, although awarded by the asking. I saw him in white in May 1973. Again as I had stated it may have been a revised book that contained this 8th canto purport as I had mentioned - as in ISKCON Press in Los Angeles every time their was a second press run - all big books had

Cyavana Swami; The initiation means to begin on the path of Bhakti, each one must figure out how to take that first step. Srila Prabhupada made it perfectly clear to me that we are not his only disciples. His instruction was," I have given you everything, don't change anything ... I will have millions of disciples". Say whatever you like, it is as simple as that, you decide. Hare Krishna.

we have no seperate selfish interests in our realized status, Tamohara dasa

Posted by Tamohara dasa ADMIN. on August 8, 2017 at 14:05

One thing, the Father serves the sons. Krsna Godhead does not overly relish bowing and scraping and pleading etc. as overly reverential needy sons might do. Rather, He wishes to play as our equal friend etc. The Vaisnavas teach this path, it is most pleasing to Godhead, and that is our eternal nature, pure service in pursuit of Krsna's pleasure, His happiness, which in ultimate is our own true happiness. We are part and parcel, we have no seperate selfish interests in our realized status. That is full liberation and unity.

Prabhupāda: That is real business. These astrologer are karmīs. We have nothing to do with the karmī.

Prabhupāda: Don't waste money for this astrology.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah. In London when we were going to get the astrologer to do, when I heard it was expensive, then we cancelled. How much money he is asking here?
Hari-śauri: He didn't say a price. He said it would take two or three days to do a detailed chart.
Prabhupāda: It is useless. Better arrange as many hours as possible to chant kīrtana. That is...
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Śrīla Prabhupāda? Today we did kīrtana starting in the afternoon till the evening. So do you want more than that?
Prabhupāda: I can hear day and night.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: So should we arrange...? Maybe we should arrange starting in the morning going till night.
Prabhupāda: That is according to your convenience. But kīrtana is very sweet.
Hari-śauri: Last June we were doing twenty-four hours.

Hare Krishna!

Many arguments are made in this respect, that as long as we don't cut the animal we do not incur sin.

In the Mahabharata, there is a verse which states that one who sells the animal, one who buys the animal, one cuts the animal,one who cooks the animal, one who serves the animal and one who eats the animal, all are bound equally by the chain of Karma.

But leaving the spiritual aspect of it, anatomically, the human body is not structured to eat animal flesh. Studies have shown the length of the intestine of a tiger is 4 times the length of it's torso so when it eats flesh the toxins in the flesh are not kept for long in the intestine and are expelled at the earliest. Also the concentration of acid secreted in the stomach is so strong that it burns the bacteria in the flesh. While in the cow, the length of the intestine is 12 times it's torso and so the food takes longer time to be expelled from the body. We have seen that the incidence of the Mad Cow disease (bovine spongi
