Spiritual Message Service




His Holiness Srila Bhaktivedanta Kusum Sraman Swami

Spiritual Message Service


December 11th 2002
1. Thank you very much for all the kind service you performed. Without it our campaign would have been very low. Gouranga!

2. When the pure holy name arises in the heart, all ignorance’s goes far away and love begins to rise. Please chant without offence.

December 13th 2002
3. Yesterday is now gone forever, let it go. Work to please Krsna now and do not let the past affect the present. Be KC now. Be positive. Krsna will be yours.

December 14th 2002
4. There are two types of devotees, I who serves Krsna in whatever way is wanted, and the other who serves in an advisory capacity. Which are you?

December 15th 2002
5. Krsna is not a fool He knows all things. He knows our motivations for what we do. We cannot trick Him at all. Act, think and speak to please Him.

December 16th 2002
6. Yesterday has gone forever. Today is the time for KC. Try very hard to be more KC today than ever before. Chant with great care, this is priceless.

7. The holy name is the greatest treasure we have, take great care of that wonderful sweet name, and nothing in existence can equal the name, prema from the name.

8. Serving Krsna means to offer or give Krsna what He wants, not what we want to give Him. What we want to give him maybe for ourselves not for Him.

December 17th 2002
9. Human life is meant for sacrifice, not for trying to be comfortable. So perform your work to please Krsna and that will be the supreme sacrifice.

10. Whatever you do is kept in the mind and will come back to you some time in the future. So whatever you think of or do will disturb you in future. Think Krsna.

December 18th 2002
11. Everything already belongs to Krsna, but He is so kind that when we offer Him something, which is already His, He is pleased with us. That’s real luv!

December 19th 2002
12. I am not the body! What is our true realization of that? Are we ready to fully face death now? If not, we should take to the KC process very seriously NOW!

December 20th 2002
13. We have all been delivered by the mercy of Lord Nityananda, we have no need to worry about anything. We just have to serve and we will go HOME!

December 21st 2002
14. Thinking, feelings, willing is the three qualities of the mind. But we should act according to guru, sastra, sadhu, not just how we feel or think. Chant it is the safest.

December 22nd 2002
15. We all belong to Krsna, we are His and life is ours. This is the only real truth everything else is illusion. Work to please Him only and you will be happy.

December 23rd 2002
16. See that all things are Krsna’s and that we have just to use everything to serve Him, Krsna is our mother, and Krsna is our father. Krsna is the treasure of our life.

December 24th 2002
17. Christmas is supposed to be a time of celebration and luv towards all. But we forget Krsna, guru, and then there can only be a hellish situation. Happy Krsnamas.

December 25th 2002
18. This material world is a place of suffering, so we must expect to suffer, but if we strictly follow the KC process we will go back to Krsna. THEN? NO MORE SUFFERING.

19. The missionary goal of a devotee is to convert one person into a pure devotee. Then his admission into the spiritual world is guaranteed. Preach, preach.

20. The way to successful preaching is by sincerely serving Lord Caitanya and following the instructions of the acaryas. Now let us all preach successfully.

21. The secret of success in spreading Krsna Consciousness is faith in the order of guru and Krsna. Take the order of guru and now preach to everyone.

22. By his work, thoughts and words, an intelligent man must perform actions, which will benefit all living entities in this life and in the next. PREACH!!!

December 26th 2002
23. Krsna is self-satisfied. He does not need us. We need him. Devotional service benefits the performer. Krsna has no real need for our service.

24. The service we offer Krsna, He does not need. He wants the Love with which the service is offered. Love is what attracts Krsna. Serve with Love!

December 27th 2002
25. We have to hold on tight to Krsna’s lotus feet and not let go. That means, Always chanting the holy names and following strictly guru’s orders.

26. Disciple means one who is disciplined by the instructions of guru and absolutely nothing else. A good disciple will follow whatever guru wants. NO ARGUMENT.

27. Some people think that they lead a truthful and honest life. But unless they are following Krsna’s orders, they’re in illusion. No truth without Absolute truth.

December 28th 2002
28. When the sun rises in the sky, all darkness is gone. So, also when the sun of Krsna Consciousness rises in the heart all darkness of ignorance will be gone.

December 29th 2002
29. This is the world of Maya (illusion). Do not think that Maya is not going to attack you because you have decided to be a devotee. No! You have to be determined.

30. Happiness and distress are coming and going all the time. Being a devotee means we continue with our KC no matter how the mind or modes act. Chant.

December 30th 2002
31. Performing devotional service should never depend on whether we are happy or not. Happiness and distress is a temporary duality, and therefore mental.

32. Devotional service must be done for the pleasure of guru and Krsna, and should never be dependent on whether we are happy or not. We are just servants. SERVE!

December 31st 2002
33. If the whole world is on your side and Krsna is your enemy, you are doomed, but if Krsna is your friend and the whole world is your enemy, you are saved.

34. When there are no fights between husband and wife, the goddess of fortune automatically comes to the home. The family that prays together stays together.

January 1st 2003
35. Lust is what separates us from Krsna. Lust is simply our selfishness and envy. We just think of what we want and how to use everything for ourselves.

36. Everything belongs to Krsna; therefore all things should be used in His service for His pleasure only. Otherwise it is lust and envy. Learn to serve that’s luv!

January 3rd 2003
37. We should never speculate, it is untruthful and at best very misleading. We are meant to lead the people to the Absolute truth. Speculation never does that.

38. If we feel that we have lost enthusiasm for service, then lust has arisen in the heart and is burning up the devotional creeper. Give up your desires and preach.

January 4th 2003
39. Two things are certain in this world. Suffering and death. Are you prepared to meet death? Are you learning to tolerate suffering? Keep chanting at all times.

40. Death can come at any moment. That is reality we should be prepared. Don’t think its not going to happen to me yet. That’s foolish. Chant and be ready.

January 5th 2003
41. Our relationship with Krsna can’t be broken or destroyed just forgotten for the time being and revived by the Lord’s grace when we follow his instructions.

42. We cannot expect that just because we engage ourselves in Krsna Consciousness we will see Krsna immediately. But we must have faith that we will see Him.

January 6th 2003
43. Krsna and His name are completely the same. So if we are chanting the pure name Krsna is there and all His associates, Gopis everyone. They are all with us.

January 7th 2003
44. The study of all scriptures is completed in all respects by one who studies the Bhagavad-Gita with devotion. Read some Gita everyday. Gouranga!

January 8th 2003
45. Pray for Lord Nityananda’s mercy. When we get His mercy all material desires will go far away, no more material attachment. Real life will begin.

January 9th 2003
46. We have to try to consciously develop devotion to the Lord. Do not just be mechanical in service; try to engage with the desire to please Krsna.

47. Everyday try to offer a little more service in a fully conscious way. Krsna wants the conscious love and devotion, He does not need anything. 

48. Thank you. Krsna is the property of the simple hearted devoted souls who are free from the propensity to find fault in others and who are dasadasanudas

January 10th 2003
49. The Holy Name and our relationship with guru and Krsna are the only things that are ours in this world. Everything else is temporary. Work on your KC.

50. Use all your energy both subtle and gross to cultivate devotional service and become absorbed in the holy names. Everything else is a useless waste of energy.

January 11th 2003
51. Are we expecting KC to bring us relief from material distress, or are we prepared to accept the distress and try to absorb in KC? Absorb that’s KC.

52. Will you read some Bhagavad-Gita today? Please do. Keep in contact with Krsna by hearing from him everyday. Hear what Krsna has to say, not the mind.

53. For the next seven days I will be travelling, so SMS may not come everyday. If you want to reply to me over the next seven days, reply to the number my SMS comes from.

54. Thank you. May the Lord stay with you and protect you always.

January 12th 2003
55. We have to learn to serve Krsna’s devotees with affection, because they are so dear to Krsna. It is easy to see faults in others, but vaisnava sees the good.

January 13th 2003
56. Devotional service should never be used as a way to get what we want, but as a process to please the Lord and thereby attain Love of Godhead.

January 14th 2003
57. Always remember that everything in this material world is temporary and we should always remain fixed in Krsna’s service no matter whatever happens.

January 17th 2003
58. As servants, we should be trying to serve this movement as much as possible not trying to get as much from the movement as possible.

January 18th 2003
59. Politics do not exist in KC. Krsna is the Supreme and everything is done for His pleasure and according to His desire. Everything else is MAYA!

January 21st 2003
60. Real love is only in connection with Krsna. Only when we are fully KC do we factually love anyone! If we are not KC, then there is still some amount of lust.

61. Thank you. Keep reading and may Srila Prabhupada and Krsna bless you with the full nectar that is truly Bhagavad-Gita.

January 22nd 2003
62. Real devotional service begins when the mind is brought under control. Chant attentively, control the mind, and desire to perform actual devotional service.

January 23rd 2003
63. One must perform ones duty whether it’s difficult or even distasteful to us. We should not act according to the direction of the mind that leads to hell.

January 24th 2003
64. Always remember, that we are no these bodies or minds. As soon as we forget this fact, our troubles start, because then we try to be the controllers, and that is not at all possible. We are at all times, the eternal servants, and as servants, by nature we must serve. Jiva cannot be the controller, Krsna is the Supreme Controller. So now serve and become happy. Trying to be the controller will only bring frustration and anxiety, SERVE, SERVE, and SERVE.

January 27th 2003
65. We must consciously practice loving Krsna. That means: doing just what He wants even if it is very difficult or it causes disturbances to us. Gouranga!

66. That which the fallen soul needs most and at all times, is guru. Without guru we will never get Krsna. We must serve guru in the way he directs not our way.

67. To have guru is the greatest blessing. Krsna has given His dear devotee to the fallen souls for their deliverance. Jiva must make gurus order dearer than life.

January 28th 2003
68. Do you truthfully think that the quality of our service and the standard of your japa are offerable to Krsna? Only the very best is offerable to Krsna.

January 30th 2003
69. Everything belongs to Krsna. He is the Lord of the spiritual and material worlds. So why are we so foolish to become very attached to that which is not ours? This attachment is the very cause of our suffering. We come into the world with nothing; we will also leave this world with nothing. We are here to learn to serve Krsna and use all things in His service and not become envious of him and others. We are just so insignificant, but are really something when we serve Krsna, with love and devotion as we are meant for. Serve, serve, serve, that’s your real nature, stop trying to be something else. Gouranga.


February 1st 2003
70. We must learn to serve with an attitude of desiring to serve, desiring to please the vaisavas, Guru and Krsna, even if it is difficult for us. That’s service.

71. Krsna is our dear most friend. Who else would continue to fulfill our desires even though we are envious of them or act against their order or desire?

February 2nd 2003
72. When we chant Hare Krsna, that is Radhe Syama, we have Radhe Syama. But do we look after Them with great luv and care? Or do we ignore Them? Ohhhh!

73. Pride and false ego can be removed by serving the devotees with humility, and chanting with respect and affection. But we must make conscious efforts.

February 3rd 2003
74. The quality of a devotee is that he is always expecting Krsna’s mercy. Without His mercy, everything is worthless and useless. Pray for His mercy.

February 8th 2003
75. I am fine, I have been so busy with sankirtan festivals and meetings in London, that I have had no time and I am off in two minutes for an appointment this afternoon some four hundred and twenty kilometers away by car, then back this evening. From Monday I should be regular again. Gouranga, thank you for your concern. Hare Krsna.

February 9th 2003
76. When the pure sun of the holy name arises in the heart, then all darkness of ignorance will be gone. Chant with great attention and affection.

77. Because we are trying to be something we are not in this world that causes distress and anxiety. Just be a simple servant and accept any service given to you.

78. Ignorance is the cause of our suffering. Ignorance causes us to forget that we are the servants and lovers of Krsna. Chant, wake up from ignorance.

79. Please thank all those who wrote letters of support for the Hungarian issue. By their support and Krsna’s mercy, everything has worked out well for us. Thank you for all your work and service also. May the Lord shower His loving mercy upon you continually. Hare Krsna.

February 10th 2003
80. The mind is like a bird and flies here and there on two wings. One is the wing of the past, and the other the future. The mind is always thinking of the past or speculating about the future but very rarely is it fixed on the present. We must put the bird of the mind in a cage and train it to think only of Krsna and devotional service. Chant, Chant, Chant. Get the bird of the mind to stay in one place, the present, and chant Hare Krsna.

81. Always remember, that whatever we say or do, there is a reaction for that. So always be very careful what you say or do. Work and speak only for Krsna.

February 11th 2003
82. It is us who need to perform devotional service. Krsna does not need the service we offer. He is eternally self-satisfied. He is just merciful to us by accepting the service that we try to offer Him. So, perform your service with care and attention. Krsna does not have to accept it. We need our service to be accepted. Bhakti is what Krsna wants. Without bhakti the service is not attractive to Krsna. Learn to serve with real bhakti.

February 12th 2003
83. We must make KC the all-important part of our life, in fact KC is real life; all else is temporary and will be finished. KC is eternal, so that is your true life, accept this truth and work very hard to do everything for the pleasure of Krsna, and stop making arrangements for our own comforts or attempts at being recognized in this world. Love is service to Krsna offered by jiva without expecting anything in return. Serve, serve, serve, it is jivas eternal nature, accept this and no longer try to be the controller or master of material energy or other jivas. Chant and be happy.

February 13th 2003
84. Each new day is another great opportunity to be more KC. Take full advantage of this new day and try harder each day to be more KC. Don’t waste your life.

February 14th 2003
85. Whoever worships Lord Nityananda’s lotus feet and remembers them, breaks all obstacles into pieces. Jaya Nita! Jaya Goura the mater of Nitai.

February 15th 2003
86. Please take shelter of the merciful Sri Nityananda and very soon all material desires and affections will be gone. By Nitai’s mercy all obstacles can be overcome. So take him as your Lord and master. Make Him your dearest friend and take Him into your heart. By His sweet mercy the highest prema is very easily attained. Go get Nita, He wants you. Gouranga. Be a simple devotee, just serve and chant.

February 16th 2003
87. Spiritual advancement can only be made when we act, speak and think for the pleasure of Guru and Krsna and no other reason or purpose. Anything separate from these is like the separate energy of the Lord; it is the Maya prakrti, or the material energy, that which is separated from Krsna. MAYA!!!! All that you do, or offer or give away should be done as an offering to Krsna. Act for Krsna’s pleasure and free yourself from the bondage of the three modes of material nature. Gouranga 

February 17th 2003
88. Krsna Consciousness means: To be fully aware at all times of what is pleasing to Krsna, and doing that and nothing else and not just trying to do what we want to do for Krsna, and hoping that we will be KC by seeming to act for Krsna, but really just doing what we want. Tricky Maya tricky mind.

February 19th 2003
89. We should never be surprised by anything that happens in this material world, things are constantly changing, that is the nature of this temporary world. Chant

February 20th 2003
90. We have been given the greatest of all gifts, the sweet holy name of the Lord. There is nothing superior to this. Keep this wonderful treasure very safe and look after that greatest treasure with your entire life. It is all jiva has! But there is nothing greater to have; everything else is the servant of the Name. Chant with great care. Keep your priceless treasure locked away safely in your deep heart of heart.


February 21st 2003
91. Maya is everywhere at all times in thought, touch, sound, sight, smell, taste and everything associated with these. Be very careful every second of the day, and in every way you can. She is very precise and accurate in her work of covering the jivas. Chant and take shelter of the Lord at all times otherwise you are probably in Maya. Gouranga be happy.

February 22nd 2003
92. The holy name when chanted without offence will destroy all sins and the reaction to all sins. Just try to chant attentively and with an un-agitated fixed mind.

February 25th 2003
93. The true purpose of devotional service is to please Krsna and nothing else. It is not so that we can be happy or feel good. Learn to please our Lord.

94. We should always try our best to make sure that all our acts and words are authorized and are accepted by spiritual authority, otherwise it is material independence, and that leads to suffering in this world. Do not trust the mind and your feelings. Act according to spiritual authority if you want to get free from karma and go home to Krsna. Act according to guru, sastra, and sadhu, not Mind, I feel, I do!!! Gouranga chant and be bona fide.

February 26th 2003
95. One should never trust a woman, a dog, or a politician. Also, one should never trust one who is attached to these three. Niti sastra, Canakhya Pandit.

96. Never trust or put your faith in anything that is material. It is temporary, controlled by the three modes and subjected to duality at every second of time.


97. This Kali yuga, the age of quarrel and hypocrisy. So it is not a surprise that the biggest materialistic nation, USA, which is most affected by Kali, is prepared to go to war so easily. In this age virtue will become vice, good will become evil, and religion will become irreligion. So we can see that even USA and UK’s reasons for the war against Iraq are much influenced and actually a product of this age of quarrel and hypocrisy. This is just the beginning of Kali yuga. Let’s chant and get out of here fast. Gouranga.

February 27th 2003
98. We do not have to worry about making advancement. If we continue to chant the holy names and offer service, we automatically advance. Just try to learn to accept this simple truth, and chant nicely and willingly, serve with a willingness to please guru and Krsna. YOU WILL ADVANCE.

March 1st 2003
99. Mercy is with us all the time. We have to be willingly and determined to accept it. Mercy has effect when we accept it. We should not just want mercy for the sake of making life easy. When mercy comes we should be very willing to show our desire to accept it and work very hard in KC so that the mercy can and will fully affect us. But we have to endeavor to work hard in KC and not just expect the mercy to do everything for us and we just lie back and take it easy in life. No, that is Maya that is not accepting the mercy that is looking for sense-gratification in the name of KC and guru and Krsna’s mercy. Work hard, do what is wanted, and then you will be getting the mercy and more will come. Gouranga.

March 2nd 2003
100. In Kali yuga there is no good qualities. There is one good quality and that is the Lord’s holy name. Only one who chants the holy name has good qualities. Chant and all good qualities will develop. Don’t just be a product of Kali. Take the name and chant at all times, otherwise Kali will enter the heart and mind and all bad qualities will take over your life. Chant, chant, chant Gouranga save us.

101. A good businessman is attentive to his own business. So a devotee should also be attentive to their business, otherwise you may get caught up in someone else’s business and if they are in Maya so must you be. Get out of your own Maya that is difficult enough. Trying to get out of someone else’s Maya and your own may be impossible. So, keep your mind fixed in your own business and don’t get involved with others. Gouranga.

102. Thank you prabhu. Best wishes. May the Holy Name become dearer to you than your very own life. Hare Krsna.

March 3rd 2003
103. Our biggest problem in this world is desire. Material desire! If we can stop desiring material things and try to just desire to please guru and Krsna according to what they want and not what we want to offer Them, then we will be beginning real spiritual life! If we continue desiring materially, then we are automatically creating another birth in the material world. Stop desiring that which is material and learn to accept that which comes to you of its own accord, perform service with the desire to please guru and Krsna and do not keep thinking of other things or what you think are better situations when doing your service. Just do as you are directed by spiritual authority, and accept that you are the most fortunate person to be given some service to guru and Krsna. Serve to please guru and Krsna and not to please yourself. Gouranga. Always chant.

March 4th 2003
104. Be careful at all times, Maya, Kali and the three modes never sleep or are inattentive at anytime, they are all-pervasive, and are everywhere and in all things.

March 8th 2003
105. The KC temple is the hospital for the diseased soul. Everyone is diseased. Come to this hospital, and we shall take care of you and cure your material disease.

March 10th 2003
106. It is only when we take our eyes off the goal that we see problems. So, always keep focused on the goal, Krsna and service to Him. Then no problems.

March 12th 2003
107. Never be surprised by anything that happens in this material world. The nature of this world is that everything is always changing and it is temporary.


March 13th 2003
108. HELP, HELP, HELP!!! Money needed to build temple in Muslim country. Get the mercy from Gouranga now. Give as much as you can, and get others to give. Let us make a nice offering to Lord Caitanya by giving as much as we can to help build a temple in Kazakhstan. Please everyone give something. Nothing too small nothing too big!!! Thank you, yours the useless beggar.

March 14th 2003
109. Gouranga is coming very soon. He is here in His merciful name. Call for Gouranga. Worship Gouranga. Chant the name of Gouranga. Gouranga delivers!

March 16th 2003
110. There is no shortage of anything in this world. The only thing that there is a shortage of is Krsna Consciousness. Go give KC to everyone. We have it!

March 17th 2003
111. Pray for the mercy of Lord Gouranga. Then take the mercy! Chant, Chant, Chant!!! The chanting of the Holy Names is His mercy. Take the mercy!

March 18th 2003
112. Gouranga has come. We are all safe now. Give up all fears and just worship His two great big wonderful yellow lotus feet. Chant, Chant, Chant. Gouranga!

March 19th 2003
113. Gouranga came to give everyone pure love of Krsna. We now have to be sincere and accept that greatest of all gifts. Do not take Krishna Consciousness cheaply!

March 20th 2003
114. Gouranga. We have been given the greatest, the best gift we could ever receive, and the holy name of Krsna. Keep him safe look after Him by chanting with devotion.

March 23rd 2003
115. If we do not serve Krsna, then we must serve Maya. If we serve Maya, then that means we will automatically suffer. Serve Krsna or Maya it is your choice.

March 25th 2003
116. Before we act or speak we should always think is what I am going to do or say pleasing to guru or Krsna. If not then do not do it or say it.

March 26th 2003
117. Never forget that the Lord is in your heart. He knows everything we say, we do or we think. He also knows our motivation for what we say, do or think.

March 27th 2003
118. Never underestimate the power of Maya. To think that Maya does not affect you is MAYA!!! Protect yourself by chanting with a fixed mind.

119. Do not try to enjoy the material energy. There is reaction for all that we do. Is last years smiling today’s crying? Will today’s laughing be our future crying?

120. Never ever underestimate the potency of Maya. She is completely all-pervasive in this material creation. Take shelter of the Holy Name of Krsna.

March 28th 2003
121. When we wake in the morning we should be very happy that we have now another chance to increase our relationship with Krsna by service and chanting.

March 29th 2003
122. Krsna Consciousness is a change in heart, not a change in any material situation. We have to want that change of heart and not hold onto attachments.

March 30th 2003
123. Nothing in this world is ours! We will have to leave it all behind at death. The only thing jiva has which is its own, is its eternal relationship with Krsna.

March 31st 2003
124. Everyone is suffering due to ignorance of the real self. We must educate the people. We must distribute Prabhupada’s books. That is the real education.

April 2nd 2003
125. Try today to be more Krsna Conscious than ever before. Be very positive in controlling the mind. Don’t talk of useless things. Chant and pray more.

126. Lets pray very devotionally and sincerely to be real devotees with nothing but loving devotion to Krsna and his devotees as our eternal desire.

April 4th 2003
127. Never be surprised at what happens in this world. Always expect the unexpected. Chant Hare Krsna at all times and keep the mind steady.

April 5th 2003
128. Krsna has given us everything, we just have to offer it all back to Him with love and devotion. Everything is his. We also are His. Gouranga.

April 6th 2003
129. Love of Krsna is within us. We just have to re-awaken that love. So we have to put lust, selfishness, envy and greed to rest in order to awaken real love.

April 7th 2003
130. A pious person never forgets the good that another person has done for them and a demon never accepts advice. Gouranga be happy.

April 8th 2003
131. A devotee is one who is meek and humble. Therefore one should consider himself or herself a great fool; otherwise one will never learn spiritual science.

April 9th 2003
132. It is not possible to satisfy the senses; the senses always want more or something else. You can satisfy Krsna by service and become eternally happy.

133. Never let yourself be influenced by negative-ness. Always remember to chant the holy name of Krsna. Krsna’s name is eternally positive. Chant, stay positive!


April 11th 2003
134. Dear Bhaktin Cheron, Thank you for your kind thoughts. May the greatly merciful Lord Sri Rama, protect, direct and deliver you and your family.

135. May you all be blessed by the sweet soft-hearted mercy and love of Sri Rama, on this great day of His wonderful appearance. Jai Sita Rama.

April 12th 2003
136. We should not be thinking what we can get from ISKCON but we should be thinking what we could offer to ISKCON. We are servants. SERVE!!!

137. We should not serve the way we want, that is conditional service. But we should serve the way guru and Krsna want. That is real devotional service. GOURANGA!

138. Dog is fighting with cat. Dog is thinking he is dog and cat is thinking he is cat. Human is thinking, I am Englishman, I am American, I am Arab. So they are also thinking the same as the animal, animal consciousness. So there will be fighting. As long as we identify with the body there will be fighting. There must be spiritual consciousness for there to be peace.




April 14th 2003
139. One of our biggest problems in this world is that we are not sufficiently afraid of Maya. Be careful, Maya is very powerful and is everywhere. Chant.

April 15th 2003
140. Impossible! This is a word from a fool’s existence. Nothing is impossible where the Lord is involved. The Lord is unlimited so everything to do with the Lord is also unlimited. So never limit what can be done for Krsna at any time. The Lord can make anything and everything possible.

April 16th 2003
141. Krsna is our dear most friend, and He is the dearest friend of everyone else. Finding deep friendship in this world is very difficult. All are imperfect, so they do not really know how to reciprocate properly. Develop your real deep love and friendship with Krsna our true friend and lover.

April 20th 2003

148. How much do we have to pay for the taxi fare? One cent/pence of faith in the Holy Name and Lord Nityananda’s mercy. Gouranga. Go home jivas.

April 21st 2003
149. We have to get the mercy and favor of a vaisnava sadhu. The vaisnava saint is so dear to Krsna. By getting his mercy we automatically get our Lord.

150. Let us make sure we keep the devotion firmly fixed and increasing in our devotional service, and not let it become just service! DEVOTIONAL service ki jai!

April 23rd 2003
152. The real business is preaching Krsna’s glories, and if there is full attention to this only, all other businesses will automatically be successful. PREACH.

April 24th 2003
153. Everything we do is just a simple choice of Krsna or Maya! Nothing more, nothing less. Choose Krsna, everything has to be for Him, or it is Maya.

April 25th 2003
154. There is no excuse for not loving and serving Krsna. Loving Krsna means to serve Him with complete body mind and soul. Not serving Krsna is maya.

April 26th 2003
155. We should not think that one place or another is better in this world. All are places of suffering and all cause us to forget Krsna. That is true suffering.

April 27th 2003
156. In this material world we can expect suffering. We have to want to leave this world of maya and give up our affections for the world and all in it.


April 28th 2003
157. Do not make so many arrangements to try to be comfortable in this world. No, get out as soon as possible. This is a place of suffering. Chant and go to Krsna.

April 29th 2003
158. All the mercy we need is there in the Holy Name and the association of the devotees of the Lord. Take the Holy Name as your greatest treasure.

April 30th 2003
159. The bigger our false ego is, the further we appear to be away from Krsna. Shorten this distance by sincere devotional service and attentive chanting.

May 1st 2003
160. When you run away from Maya make sure you leave no contact or forwarding address. When we accept Krsna it has to be in heart not just in theory.

May 2nd 2003
161. Do not make plans to be Krsna conscious. Start practicing NOW! You never know when death will come. Start chanting with devotion and attention NOW!

May 3rd 2003
162. Krsna knows everything, but, him no one knows. But we can know how to perform devotional service by guru’s mercy and in that way get to know Krsna.

May 4th 2003
163. The separated energy of Krsna, this material world, is so very attractive to us. How wonderful must the eternal spiritual be? Let us go and find out.

May 5th 2003
164. Liberation comes in the form of death to a devotee. Either we go to Krsna or get another body to perform more devotional service. Both are good.

May 6th 2003
165. Krsna never leaves Vrndavan. If we want to attract Krsna, then our hearts and minds must be like Vrndavan, full of pure love and devotion. Chant with love.

May 7th 2003
166. We all, as eternal souls have the same spiritual qualities as Krsna. So we are very capable of reaching the spiritual world where we belong.

May 8th 2003
167. It is us who are holding on to Maya, not Maya who is holding on to us. We are the ones who are attached and have to let go of the material energy.

May 9th 2003
168. Never underestimate Maya. Be prepared at all times for the illusory energy trying to misdirect you from the path of KC. Watch for the small things, even tiny mosquito’s can cause great disease that kills. Maya is very subtle and will use little things to cover the tiny jiva soul. Chant.

May 10th 2003
169. Never think that you cannot go back to Godhead. That is BIG Maya. The devotee is always expecting Krsna’s mercy. Chant and go home to Krsna.

All glories to the Supreme Lord, who appeared as the half-man, half-lion incarnation. Jaya Nrsimhadeva!!!

May 16th 2003

May 17th 2003

May 18th 2003

May 19th 2003
179. We just have to chant daily, read Prabhupada’s books, perform regular devotional service, take prasadam and associate with devotees and we will be KC.

May 20th 2003
180. There was never any better time for chanting and being Krsna conscious than NOW! NOW is always the best time to chant and be KC. Try it!

But it is all in Prabhupada’s service. I will certainly try hard on my return to make a point of visiting you all. I hope this is agreeable with you. My best wishes to your husband and your daughters. Look after yourselves and may the Lord be your constant source of strength and spiritual inspiration so that your KC may never falter in any way or at any time. Hare Krsna! Your insignificant servant, the worthless bb puri goswami.

184. Learning about KC and practicing KC is actually real self-interest. We are all self-centred and self-interested in this world, but KC is true self-centeredness.

May 23rd 2003
185. Hare Krsna! Thank you for all your kindness and service. I wish you and your family the very best in KC. I will make a point of visiting your home on my next visit to SA. Till then Hare Krsna and keep the treasure of the Holy Name always in your heart and mind and on your tongue. Gouranga.

May 25th 2003
187. Krsna Consciousness means full cooperation with Krsna, and Krsna means with all His devotees, His qualities, His abode, His name, completely everything.

May 26th 2003
188. A devotee’s business is to appreciate the value of other devotees and not criticize anyone, because everyone is engaged in the service of the Lord according to one’s capacity. Krsna wants to see how much one is sincere in rendering Him service. He is looking for our love.

May 27th 2003
189. Being KC is factually natural for the soul. Being in Maya is totally alien and completely unnatural for the soul. The soul is spiritual by nature. Maya is material.

May 28th 2003
190. Envy kills all devotional spirit and makes us seem like enemies of each other if we have envy. Please serve the devotees nicely, that pleases the Lord.

May 29th 2003

May 30th 2003

May 31st 2003
193. The material world is for getting out of as soon as possible. We should work in such a way as to prepare to leave this world as soon as we can.

June 1st 2003
194. Prabhupada has given us everything when he gave us the Holy name. Krsna is the Holy name and all things spiritual and material come from Him. So we have been given Krsna, so therefore we have been given everything. With Krsna are all His dear devotees. Radhe, the gopis, the cowherd boys, the cows, the entire spiritual existence and all its transcendental activities and qualities. We have been given absolutely everything by Srila Prabhupada. There is no need or reason to go or look anywhere else.

June 3rd 2003
196. Do not work so hard just to get relief from your suffering in life. Learn to tolerate the miseries and work hard to be KC, and then at the end of life go to Krsna.

June 5th 2003
197. Initiation into KC is not membership into some elite spiritual club where now I am a member and I get certain benefits and respect given to me. NO! Initiation means, now I have been accepted as the servant of guru, the vaisnavas and the Lord, I must make my only life’s business to serve them without reservation and not expect anything at all in return. Any other mood is completely material and will obstruct us in advancement on the path of bhakti.

June 7th 2003
198. Everyone is looking for luv. Luv personified has descended to us in the form of the Holy names. Now show your love and chant with great care and attention and reciprocate with the Lord. Love is a reciprocal thing, not at all selfish and one-way. Chant with love and your true lover, Krsna will soon appear directly before you. May the Holy name be your shelter, protector, deliverer and goal of life.

June 9th 2003
199. Krsna Consciousness is the only true reality. All other things are illusion. Follow the Krsna conscious authorities and remain in KC.

200. Raising His lotus hands in the air, Lord Nityananda exclaims: Come living entities! Give up the troubles of karma and jnana. Since you are endeavoring for happiness, I will give you happiness without asking anything in exchange. In this happiness there is no trouble loss or pain. Just chant the name of Gouranga and dance without anxiety. There is nothing equal to the happiness that I am giving. That happiness is pure, eternal ecstasy-beyond all illusion!
Gouranga!!!

June 11th 2003
201. Gouranga! Never speak badly of devotees at any time. Try to see the good in everyone and keep the mind under control. Everyone has faults.

202. Dear Cheron, Gouranga! Thank you for your text and kind concern. My regards to the family. It is very pleasing that you are all learning Gita. Please continue in this way and your lives will be a success. Looking forward to seeing you all on my return to SA. Look after each other; you are all dear to Krsna. Gouranga! 

June 12th 2003
203. If Lord Nityananda just sees tears in the eyes once when a person chants Gouranga, He will give that person all facility. Gouranga! Chant, chant, chant!

June 13th 2003
204. We should not at any time minimize the Lord, His holy name or His devotees. By doing this, we are actually minimizing ourselves and no one else.

June 14th 2003
205. We must practice Krsna consciousness for the purpose of becoming pure devotees of the Lord and not for trying to fulfill our material desires and aspirations. Happiness in KC does not mean our idea of happiness. NO! It means making Krsna pleased by our service and accepting whatever He wants to give us in return for that, and us being pleased by whatever Krsna gives us. Try to learn to serve God for God’s sake and no other. Gouranga!

June 15th 2003
206. The only reason we suffer, is because of past sins. So we should never think that we are suffering because of others. We must now be KC, then eventually as we become purer in our consciousness our sinful reaction will decrease and we will in the end return to our eternal home, the spiritual world, never to return to this world of suffering and death. We have all been sinful, now let us be brave enough to accept the reactions and not look at others as the cause of our suffering, otherwise we will suffer more. Be KC think of Krsna and perform devotional service.

June 16th 2003
207. We must learn to accept the reactions to our sinful activities and never blame others for our suffering. Krsna is absolute in His judgment. The law of karma is very exact, and gives reactions for our own sins, not the reactions to the sins of others. Whatever you do will come back to you! Krsna will never kick the cat for what the dog has done. To blame others for our suffering is also sinful activity. Gouranga!

June 17th 2003
208. We have to completely and fully accept that Krsna Consciousness is our original eternal consciousness. That is us, that is the you and me, and everything else is the cause of our sufferings. All else is Maya. If we do not fully accept this absolute truth, then we are in illusion and will suffer more. We have to work on re-awakening our true consciousness. Start now! Let’s now be us and accept nothing else.

June 18th 2003
209. We should never be surprised at anything that happens in this material world. Everything is endlessly changeable. We must be fixed in KC. That’s safety!

June 19th 2003
210. One who is KC is never negative. How is it possible to be negative when everything about KC is absolutely positive? Negativity means Maya. Be KC.

June 20th 2003
211. We need Krsna. He does not need us. What do we have that He needs or would want? Everything we have belongs to Him. WE NEED HIM!! Serve Him.

June 21st 2003
212. Krsna is Krsna. Maya is Maya. You cannot be partly KC. If you are thinking of Krsna, that is KC. If you are not thinking of Krsna, that is Maya (illusion).

June 22nd2003
213. What does the soul have which belongs to it?? NOTHING AT ALL!! Everything spiritual and material is Krsna. Why be attached to things which are never ours.

June 23rd 2003
214. Karma is our own. We get reaction for what we have done in the past. Never blame anyone else for what ever happens to you. Chant; become free.

June 24th 2003
215. Human life is meant for self-realization. Unless we are endeavoring for self-realization through the process of KC, are we human beings or animals. Be KC.

June 25th 2003
216. Krsna never leaves Vrndavan. So if we want Krsna to be with us, we have to make our heart and mind the same as Vrndavan, full of unmotivated pure love.

217. Full unmotivated pure love means loving service to Krsna without desire for any recognition, reward or anything in return. Just the desire to please Krsna!

June 26th 2003
218. We should not pray to Krsna for anything. We should pray to all His eternal devotee servants for their mercy to become one of their servants.

June 27th 2003
219. The ultimate and only true goal of life is to die!! Die, with the mind completely absorbed in Krsna ALONE!! And nothing else, all else will bring us back.

June 28th 2003
220. The best and most advantageous time to think of Krsna is right NOW!! Immediately if not sooner. We never know when the end will come. Gouranga!

June 29th 2003
221. When you run away from Maya, be careful not to leave a forwarding address. We can never defeat Maya. We can only take shelter of guru and Krsna.

June 30th 2003
222. No matter what happens in this world to you at any time, just always keep one thing with you in heart and mind; Krsna’s Holy Name is all that is needed.

July 1st 2003
223. The only things that the soul needs in this world is the holy name, devotional service, guru, and association of devotees. All else is disturbance.

July 3rd 2003
224. Krsna is looking for simple servants who will serve Him with pure love in the way that is pleasing to Him. By offering to serve Krsna in a way that we want, that is pleasing ourselves NOT Krsna, that is not pure devotional service. Serve to please Krsna and Him alone. Give up self-centeredness and material considerations. Simply serve in the way that is wanted.

225. Chant with the mood of trying to please Krsna. Not with any pre-planned idea of what we should get from our chanting.

July 4th 2003
226. Every individual must have his opinion; that is the significance of individuality, but all such differences must coincide in Krsna.

July 6th 2003
227. The spiritual science becomes revealed to the devotee from within the heart according to the degree of his surrender to Krsna. Chant and serve.

July 8th 2003
228. We come into this world with this body we leave without it. Nothing is ours everything is Krsna’s. Don’t be attached to that which is never yours.

July 9th 2003
229. Service to Krsna is the only and true reality. Everything else just creates further illusion, which is the cause of all suffering of the living entity. Live to serve Krsna and you will soon reach the eternal realm of bliss and love, and will be eternally satisfied there serving Krsna, your real eternal lover and dear most friend.

July 15th 2003
230. There is only one real business in this world, becoming Krsna Conscious. All else is completely useless and makes us all failures in life. Be KC and finish your business in this world now.

July 22nd 2003
231. Never be selective about service to Krsna. Always be happy and accept that you are one of the most fortunate souls to be offered the chance to serve.

July 23rd 2003
232. There is no greater gift, treasure or possession than the all-perfect holy name of the Lord. Chant that merciful name with reverence and affection.

July 24th 2003
233. We are all insignificant tiny entities but we hate being ignored by others. So never ignore Krsna when chanting, be attentive. He is the most important.

234. Don’t try to be something or anything in this world. Just perform devotional service properly and let your true self-shine through the material coverings.

July 27th 2003
235. The spiritual science becomes revealed to the devotee from within the heart according to the degree of his surrender to Krsna.

July 28th 2003
236. All the wealth in all the universes put together cannot purchase one Holy name of the Lord. We have got the greatest wealth ever, the Holy Names.

July 31st 2003
237. This material world is a harsh and anxious place to try to live. The spiritual world is the opposite, full of love and happiness. That is where we all belong.

238. To forget Krsna is the greatest gamble we can take. We do not know when we will die. So never forget Krsna or we will have to come back to this material world to suffer again. Chant and remember Krsna.

August 1st 2003
239. A devotee is not afraid of death, he knows that only the material body dies and the real self, the soul is eternal and never dies. Chant to realize this fully.

August 2nd 2003
240. A devotee is the servant of everyone. It is the very nature of the soul to serve. The soul will never be fully happy until it is serving completely. Serve jivas! Serve guru, Krsna and the devotees with all your body, mind and soul, and always tell the non-devotees about Krsna and devotional service. Then and only then will we be truly happy. Gouranga.

August 6th 2003
241. A devotee is one who wants to serve Krsna for Krsna’s pleasure. Not one who is asking Krsna for things. We serve Krsna, not He serves us.

August 7th 2003
242. Krsna Consciousness is the most important thing that exists; nothing else can equal it in any way. We must develop that KC and nothing else. Krsna Consciousness is the only true reality; all else is temporary, illusionary and the complete cause of the suffering of the living entities in this material world. BE KC!! It is the true reality and will fully satisfy the soul. Gouranga!

August 10th 2003
243. The Lord is in everyone’s heart as the Super soul, so He knows all our desires and motivations. We must act and speak truthfully and in a devotional way.

August 12th 2003
244. Thank you for your kind text. May Lord Balarama give you great strength and protection and award you entrance into the holy dham of Sri Vraja.

August 13th 2003
245. All souls are servants and will never be happy till they are serving Krsna and the devotees. So always step forward to offer service and never wait for service to come to you, otherwise are you still acting out of false ego, by thinking you are so important that you should be approached? No, a devotee is enthusiastic, wiling, always looking for service at all times and does not sit back waiting for someone to offer to engage him. A real devotee goes searching for service at every second. Serve jivas, serve!!! 

246. The only thing a jiva soul has which is its own is its relationship with Krsna through service. We must regain that which is our own as soon as we can.

August 15th 2003
247. A devotee never hates anything or anyone, because the devotee knows that everything and everyone is part and parcel of Krsna or His energy.

August 16th 2003
248. We are neither renouncer nor enjoyer; we are simply a servitor of Krsna. Please follow this principle and you will never be disturbed in any frightened condition offered by maya. Gouranga, chant and serve no matter what situation mentally or physically you find yourself in.

August 17th 2003
249. If we are thinking we know a lot or everything, we will never learn. The first thing in spiritual life, is to accept that we know nothing, then we can learn.

250. Krsna does not need anything we can do or offer Him. We are the ones who need to learn to offer everything to Him with love and devotion, free from lust.

August 19th 2003
251. Whether you are lusty or a thief or a murderer or whatever it may be, somehow or other you must develop this eagerness, this desire, ‘I must see Krsna’. Then Krsna will be seen.

August 20th 2003
252. Always think of the lotus feet of Sri Krsna and you will find no difficulties in executing the tasks allocated to you by Krsna.

August 21st 2003
253. A devotee knows how to engage himself and others in the service of Krsna completely, as well as all the wealth in the matter of propagating Krsna Consciousness. Rest assured.

August 23rd 2003
254. A spiritual master’s qualification is he’s trying his best to deliver the soul from these clutches of maya. That is a great service. Therefore he is very dear. One who is chanting or executing devotional service for his personal benefit and one who is trying to deliver others for other’s benefit, there is a difference.

August 26th 2003
255. Without the mercy of Balarama, nobody can appreciate Vrndavana life.

August 27th 2003
256. A madman, what does he not say, and a goat, what does he not eat?

August 28th 2003
257. One who is making false statements; he’ll suffer for that. So always be truthful, act always in the service of Krsna, the Absolute Truth!

August 30th 2003
258. As soon as you become God conscious the demons will create disturbance. Just like Lord Jesus Christ. He was crucified by the demons. The only fault was that he was god conscious. Just see, such an innocent person.

September 1st 2003
259. We have to work sincerely, and because Krsna is in everyone’s heart, there will be no difficulty to have the necessary facilities.

September 2nd 2003

September 4th 2003
261. Radharani is the source of spiritual liberation. Jaya Sri Radhe!

262. The animal propensity is to exploit others. And human propensity should be to do good to others. That is the difference between animal propensity and human propensity.

September 5th 2003
263. Guru and Krsna are two parallel lines on which the spiritual express runs very smoothly.

September 6th 2003
264. The best time to be Krsna Conscious is now! You never know what the future will bring. Start trying to be KC now and protect yourself.

September 7th 2003
265. For the soul that is the eternal servant of Krsna, by its very nature, there is no reason not to love and service Krsna accept that we are envious of Him.

September 8th 2003
266. To love Krsna is the true nature of the soul! So we will never be happy doing anything else. Establish the truth that will bring love and real happiness. Serve!

September 10th 2003
267. We should learn not to be false at any time. The Lord is in our hearts. He knows all our motivations and desires. At least we should be honest to ourselves.

September 11th 2003
268. The past now sleeps. Be fully awake and Krsna conscious to the present time and establish yourself in chanting and serving Krsna and devotees with love.

September 12th 2003
269. Always use intelligence. Never make uninformed statements based on hearsay or speculation and never agree with anyone just to be popular.

September 13th 2003
270. Truth is in direct relationship to Krsna and topics directly related to Him only. All else is quite simply illusion and not spiritually beneficial at all.

September 14th 2003
271. When you run away from Maya, be sure that you do not leave a forwarding address. Don’t hold onto illusion; take shelter of Krsna’s holy names.

September 16th 2003
272. Only that which is truthfully performed for the pleasure, glorification or service of Krsna, guru and their devotees is of any worth. All else is useless.

September 17th 2003

Eternal!

September 30th 2005
881. Prabhupada said:
Our problem is that we are not sufficiently afraid of Maya. The condition souls have affection for the material energy therefore won’t let go.

October 2nd 2005
882. You have the holy names of the Lord. Don’t just keep Him to yourself. Give Him to everyone. He is everyone’s Lord. Show your Lord to others, give them the Holy Names.


October 3rd 2005

December 5th 2005

Many of you may have already given a donation towards this, but this month we are making ‘a big push’ , so we are begging everyone to please, please, please send us a donation of £20, which will cover this for one MP. Hoping this meets you well. Yours, the beggar, BB Puri Goswami. Ps. or give what you can.

887. Send the donation to Karuna Bhavan, Bankhouse Road, Lesmuhagow, Lanarkshire, ML 11 0OES, UK. Address it to ‘The Secretary’. Thank you so much. Your servant, Kunti.

888. No matter where you go or where you may hide. The reactions to your past deeds will always find you. Chant and serve Krsna. No fear of the future or past. Gouranga!

December 8th 2005
889. Maharaja will be in SA soon, you can give him the money then, Gouranga!

890. Who can be complacent when snakes inhabit one’s house, when there is an incurable illness, and when death can strike at any moment? Take shelter of Krsna’s name.





December 9th 2005
891. Whatever we suffer, we should see it positively and think that it is less suffering to go before I can get out of this world; each time we suffer it is less suffering to go before we are finally free from past deeds. Be positive. Be as Krsna conscious as possible. Each name chanted is closer to freedom.

December 11th 2005
892. We have to pray to develop devotion and love when we are chanting and performing service. Krsna wants devotion and love, that’s what we look for in others also.

December 12th 2005
893. Pray very sincerely to develop real devotion with no material subtle desires. Pray to fully accept that devotion with sincerity when Bhakti devi gives it.

December 14th 2005

December 15th 2005
896. We have to fully realize that we are not this body if we want to properly associate with Krsna. Material consciousness can never enter into the transcendental realm.

December 19th 2005
897. It is said: ‘There is no place like home’. But where is our real home? Home is with our family. The real family is the spiritual family which we have in the spiritual world. We all have parents and relatives in the spiritual world and we all have a complete satisfying relationship with Krsna and our family. GO!

December 23rd 2005
898. We can definitively be Krsna conscious. We will be Krsna conscious. Continue trying more and more, and soon we will be Krsna Conscious. We are all on the road home!

December 26th 2005
902. We must learn to do only what is wanted by the Lord and do it the way He wants, when He wants and wherever He wants and be very pleased to do just that only.

December 29th 2005
903. We have to learn to serve Krsna with the complete mood of just wanting to please Him and nothing else. No motive of our own. Simply please Krsna. Do what He wants.

December 30th 2005
904. We are all materially conditioned, so we will make mistakes. We should not dwell on the mistakes, but we should not use being materially conditioned as an excuse for not doing things properly in our service. We have to try very hard and desire so much to overcome our conditioning through honest sincere service.

January 1st 2006
905. There can be no happiness without Krsna and service to Him. If there is happiness in this world, why is everyone desperately searching for it in temporary useless things that have been tried by so many others who are still searching? A happy New Year without Krsna is not possible. Rama the reservoir of pleasure!

January 3rd 2006
906. Are we desperately trying with all our thoughts, words and actions to re-establish our loving relationship with Krsna? If not, then we cultivating something else, some other relationship which will in due time cause pain, anxiety, and forgetfulness of Krsna. Our relationship with Krsna is all we have, serve!

January 4th 2006
907. Krsna consciousness is a way of life; it is the real way of life, eternal life. It is not a philosophy or ideology; it is the practical eternal natural function of the soul, the loving servant of Krsna. It is not just something to think about or preach to others, it is to be lived the way Krsna desires, not out way.

January 5th 2006
908. We can never be sure of anything or depend on anything in this world. So we must just learn to try our best at all times to take shelter of Krsna in all ways. Chant!

January 7th 2006
909. Always try to look for the attachments which are generally unseen by us, things which we just accept day to day and don’t think much about them. Pray for vision!

January 11th 2006
910. Prabhupada says:
We should not be surprised by anything that happens in this material world, just learn to tolerate whatever comes
The holy names of Krsna!

January 12th 2006
911. Because we have taken to KC we should not think we are not going to suffer. No! We must tolerate all things and be fixed in KC no matter what happens. Be strong!

January 13th 2006
912. We should think ourselves this most fortunate to be given KC and we should do our utmost to make best use of the great fortune we have been given. Chant nicely.

January 15th 2006
913. Krsna has said:
This material world is a place of suffering and death
So to expect happiness, peace of mind, security etc is foolish. Just tolerate, serve, go home.

914. There is only one kind of Krsna consciousness. That’s Krsna’s kind! There is only one way to be Krsna conscious. The way Krsna wants. KC means pleasing Krsna only.


January 16th 2006
915. What can we give Krsna that He has not got? What can we tell Krsna that He does not already know? Give Him your devotion and tell Him sincerely you too love Him.

January 17th 2006
916. We only see obstacles and difficulties on the devotional path when we take our mind off the goal. If we go forward very quickly soon the obstacles are left behind.

January 18th 2006
917. We need Krsna, He does not need us, He just loves us so much, that is His nature, but He does not want to force us to love Him, He gives choice. That’s love! Gouranga!

January 19th 2006
918. Well done, you have taken to Krsna consciousness. The best thing any soul can ever do. Now make a good job of being KC. Work hard at it at all times. Go to Krsna now!

January 20th 2006

January 22nd 2006

January 24th 2006
922. Have we really accepted and made Krsna Consciousness the goal and focus of our lives or are we using KC to try to get what we want from life? KC means for Krsna.

January 25th 2006
923. There is no place to run and hide in this world, whatever is for us we will get, we must learn to take shelter of Krsna and tolerate everything that comes, chant!
924. We must try very hard at all times to control the mind. If we let the mind just do what it wants then we will eventually have so much trouble with it. Try hard!

January 26th 2006
925. Life is so busy. But at least a few times in the day just stop, be calm, chant the holy name very peacefully and think of Krsna and remember the goal of life. Chant!

January 27th 2006
926. Only when we truly and completely give up all attraction for sense gratification and the desire for fame, distinction, adoration and gain, and, when we absorb ourselves in thoughts and glorification of Krsna, will we attain true affection for Krsna. But we should try our best to go in that direction from now.

January 28th 2006
927. Krsna loves us! Now we need to learn to love Him. We will never learn if we think we know, we have to accept we don’t know, otherwise love will never grow. Gouranga!

January 30th 2006
928. We can surrender all the fruits of our actions to Krsna, this is wonderful, but we must try and pray to develop a loving relationship with Him. Develop love, prema!

929. We must associate with Krsna when we chant His name. Are you really trying your best to be with Krsna by hearing very open heartedly when you chant? He and His name are the same. He is there waiting for you. Are you going to Him? Are you giving yourself to Krsna when you chant? Try gently and with affection.

January 31st 2006
930. We have to live in this world, but live in such a way as if you are ready to leave at any moment. Live to serve Krsna and don’t become attached to anything. Gouranga!

February 1st 2006
931. Just try to do everything that Krsna wants and in the way He wants it done, and try so hard to develop an attitude of devotion and willingness. Don’t do it our way, it has not worked in the past. We’ve been in this material world so long because of doing things, OUR WAY. So much suffering from OUR WAY. Chant!

February 2nd 2006
932. Srila Prabhupada said:
The problem is that we are not sufficiently afraid of Maya, we have affection for Maya, in this world there is danger at every step. Chant constantly!

February 4th 2006
933. We are all infinitesimal spirit sparks, insignificant and all equal, the eternal servants of the Lord by our very nature.

February 5th 2006
934. Can you completely leave everything you are doing, all your possessions, friends and family etc, at a moments notice? Death does not give any warning, PREPARE NOW!

February 6th 2006
935. If we realized and truly understood that absolutely nothing in this world, not even the body we are in is ours and none of it belongs to us in any way, then how important would anything in the world be? Why be so attached to that which is not ours and will never be ours and will soon be gone. Foolish we are!

February 7th 2006
936. Take a vacation from Maya, you deserve it, you have been serving her for millions of lives and still suffering. Go to Krsna, serve Him and worry no more about life.

February 8th 2006

February 9th 2006
939. Everything is Krsna’s. Why do we falsely accept that anything at all belongs to us? When will we stop trying to be the controllers and owners of what we want?

February 10th 2006
940. We have to be sp intensely greedy to get the Lord’s mercy. We must have that and that only as the complete goal and focus of our existence. Get the mercy. Nitai!

February 11th 2006
941. The only cure for our suffering condition of illusion, anxiety, pride, etc, is the medicine of the holy name, this medicine has to be taken according to the spiritual doctors direction and not according to the patients desire which is affected by the patients diseased condition, which needs to be treated by the chanting.

February 12th 2006
942. Each and every moment in life is very precious. Don’t waste one moment on that which is not precious. Krsna is the most precious.

February 13th 2006

February 14th 2006
944. Life is constantly changing, just accept it and try to be Krsna conscious. Don’t try to hold on to everything in life that causes pain and anxiety. Hold onto Krsna!

February 15th 2006
945. When we are chanting we must give full attention to the holy name, so we must be convinced that nothing else is important and that we must have faith that chanting the holy name is going to deliver us from misery and repeated birth and death, otherwise we will not accept that the holy name is all important.

February 16th 2006
946. Nothing can ever, will ever or does ever harm the eternal spirit soul. When will we be completely convinced and realized in this? The first step in spiritual life!

February 17th 2006
947. Consider your own self realization. Are you truly making as much effort as you can? Do you really try your very best to hear as you are chanting? Are you making every effort to fill every second of your day with real KC? Do you consciously try your best to think of Krsna and see all things in relation to Him? TRY!

February 18th 2006
948. We must pray to the previous acaryas (spiritual maters) for their mercy, guidance and protection in our efforts to become KC. Beg their great mercy. Hare Krsna!

February 19th 2006

February 23rd 2006
953. The mind has misled us and caused us so much misery by listening to it and believing what it says and it feels. When will we believe guru and Krsna and follow Them with the dedication, faith and submission that we have followed the mind for so many lifetimes? Don’t take the mind seriously. Chant the holy name.

February 25th 2006
954. We must accept that the holy name is the most valuable thing we have, even more valuable than our own lives. We must be more attached to the holy name than all other things combined. We must be anxious to hear and chant with complete attachment to the holy name. The holy name is the only thing that is our own.

February 27th 2006
955. We can be with Krsna all the time. Do we want to be with him all the time? Do we want to give up everything in this world? Do we truly want to chant perfectly? We must want to chant His name and be with Him only and not want or have attraction for anything else if we want to chant perfectly and be with Krsna.

956. How much mental and physical suffering will we have to go through and see others experience before we decide finally, we’ve had enough, and finally surrender to Krsna?

March 24th 2006
957. Without Krsna consciousness our lives would be empty, meaningless and without any real purpose. It would be a life of hard work, with a bitter end and future. Hare Krsna!

March 26th 2006

March 30th 2006
958. Our one and only business in this life is to reestablish our loving relationship with Krsna, everything else is a waste of life and is a danger to us. Gouranga!

April 2nd 2006

April 5th 2006

April 16th 2006

April 17th 2006

April 18th 2006

April 19th 2006

991. There has never been, and there will never be a better time to be Krsna conscious then right now. Chant! Pray, serve and learn about Krsna. Now is the best time.

June 13th 2006
992. Krsna is all we have that is our own and we gave Him up, ignored Him, rejected, offended and blasphemed Him. He still loves us. Go get Him, let nothing get in your way.

June 14th 2006
993. We have been given the greatest gift. Devotional service! How to realize that and feel deeply fortunate and feel so grateful that we absorb in service always.

June 15th 2006
994. No matter what happens in life, we must always hold onto the holy name. Never stop chanting no matter what hits you in life. Put faith in the holy name at all time.

June 16th 2006
995. We are the most fortunate to be given devotional service. Krsna is purchased by loving devotion so He does not give this opportunity of service very easily.

June 20th 2006
996. We should try our very best to do everything to please Krsna without any motive of our own. Being selfishly motivated in service causes us difficulty. Be KC!

June 21st 2006
997. Krsna consciousness is our eternal function; it is our true unconditioned, uncontaminated state of blissful reality. We have to truthfully accept that to be KC!

June 22nd 2006
998. Our only true and real relationship is with Krsna. We must re-establish that at all costs. All else is temporary and sure to cause suffering. Depend on Krsna now!

June 23rd 2006
999. We must somehow become absorbed in hearing and chanting the holy names accepting that is the all important way of life, total emergency in our present condition.

June 25th 2005
1000. Ignorance means we have ignored Krsna. We have to learn to get out of ignorance by thinking of Krsna and what He wants and doing that in the way that He wants only.

Are we living to please Krsna? A devotee exists just to serve and try in some way or another at all times to be pleasing to Krsna. Krsna is the life breath of a devotee.
26/06/06

The only thing that actually matters in life is Krsna, everything else is useless and will be finished very soon. Develop your relationship with Krsna urgently.
27/06/06

We suffer constantly in so many different ways in this world but still we remain attached. When will we become attached to Krsna and Krsna only, giving up maya.
28/06/06

Good association is a must to advance nicely in KC. One can also associate with the great souls through their writings and lectures. There are many talks between great souls in Bhagavatam, Gita, Caitanya Caritamrta, Teachings of Lord Kapiladeva and SP’s purports and lectures, Guru’s through their instructions, devotees in temples, nama hattas, festivals and wherever we can.
Should associate at all times with the Lord through His holy name.
29/06/06

No one can understand the suffering or anxiety of anyone else. Only Krsna does. Turn to Him, take shelter of Him and be loved by Him and love Him. He knows us.
30/06/06

Do we want Krsna’s mercy? Will we take it if He gives to us? He has given Himself in the form of holy name. Great mercy. Are we taking it? Wanting something else???
02/07/06

We have got Krsna in the mercy form of His holy name, how much are we caring for and loving the holy name, are we chanting and being with Krsna at every moment?
03/07/06

The distance between us and Krsna is the extent of our own false ego. We must give up trying to be anything except Krsna’s servant and be our real selves. Serve.
05/07/06

Everything is Krsna’s, nothing is ours. Just offer everything to Him with love and devotion. See everyone as His servants and don’t use them to serve our desires.
08/07/06

The soul, you, me, everyone else is eternal and nothing ever effects the soul, it is eternally the same. We must remember this at all times and act in that knowledge.
09/07/06

We must learn to live the philosophy of Gita etc not just read it and preach it to others. It is our way of life, the eternal way of life, loving and serving Krsna.
10/07/06

Are we sold out to Krsna completely? If not then we must still be prostituting ourselves to Maya, so we can be sure of more suffering and anxiety in the future.
16/07/06

Do we really want to love and serve Krsna the way He wants or the way we want? It really has to be the way He wants at all times eternally, nothing less. Gouranga.
17/07/06

Krsna says, ‘Always remember Me, become My devotee’ He does not say think of anything else. Forgetfulness of Krsna is the cause of all our suffering. Krsna Krsna .
20/07/06

We have to accept that getting out of this world is not going to be easy and if we are attached to having an easy comfortable life, then being KC is not likely. Chant.
21/07/06

Being Krsna conscious is the ONLY business for a human being, nothing else. All else degrades the consciousness and causes suffering and forgetfulness of Krsna.
22/07/06

Never consider anything in this world to you. That will cause attachment, hankering, lamentation, much pain and ultimately forgetfulness of Krsna. Chant!!!
25/07/06

Everything belongs to Krsna. So what can we offer Him? All we is our love and devotion and that is what pleases Him the most. He is purchased by that love.
27/07/06

Devotion> Abandoning everything. All thoughts, words, acts, emotions, attachments, attractions, opinions, I and mine, false identification, desire for recognition to serve Krsna, the way He wants, and no thought of any other way, and with complete enthusiasm and willingness. Like the idea? That’s real eternal life. Bliss.
28/07/06

Krsna only really wants one thing from us. That is us. He has everything else. Can we give Him what He wants? Not easy when we’re attached to trying to enjoy.
30/07/06

We must give up desiring material things and just desire to serve the Lord in the way He wants and no other way, then we will make rapid advancement in KC.
31/07/06

There is nothing certain in this temporary material world wit hall it’s temporary men, animals and situations. So we must not depend upon it. Take shelter of Krsna.
02/08/06

No matter what happens to us in life, either what we think to be good or bad, we must always chant the holy name, maha mantra and in time we will be successful.
03/08/06

When will we just want to think only of Krsna with absolutely no attraction or tinge of desire for anything else or any other thought at all. O Krsna Save us!
05/08/06

Not the body. Not the mind. Easy to say and tell to others. But how to live it in practice with full realisation and see others in the same way. Not so easy. Chant.
06/08/06

No matter what happens try always to take shelter of Krsna, you never know what will happen next in this world. Danger at every step. Always think of Krsna. Chant!
07/08/06

We should be living life only for the purpose of serving Krsna and getting out of material existence, not to be comfortable, secure, wanted, respected etc etc. Chant
08/08/06

Lord Balarama Ki Jai! He is the original Spiritual Master, so we pray to Him for all spiritual strength, knowledge, direction and shelter on His appearance day today.
09/08/06

Never give up hope at any time. Krsna is always there, we can always chant the holy name or read about Krsna. The only thing that is hopeless, is depending on Maya.
11/08/06

Are we purposefully and constantly endeavouring to develop a taste for chanting the holy name? If we are not, then we must be developing a taste for something else.
12/08/08

If we just keep chanting the best we can and desiring to please the Lord, we are going forward and will reach the goal in due course. Be positive always. Chant!
13/05/ 06

Real friendship is based on KC relationships, direct KC. Only in relationship to Krsna. Any other relationships are harmful as they take us away from Krsna. Chant.
14/08/06

We are always arrangement how to live nicely in this world, when we should really be making arrangements how to die properly and never come back. Chant!

Have a wonderful Janmastami. May the ever sweet and merciful Lord appear resplendent in your heart and mind and stay there always. Radhe Syam, take care.
16/08/06

On this most wonderful of wonderful days, Krsna’s appearance day, may your attachment for Him deepen greatly and bear fruit of divine love and stay that way. Krsna
16/08/06

All glories to Srila Prabhupada on his appearance day, the day that hope and mercy again into the world. Without him we would all be hell bound. Hare Krsna!
17/08/06

There is only one business in life. Becoming Krsna Conscious. Everything else is a harmful and dangerous diversion which causes us to forget our Lord. Hare Krsna.
18/08/06

We must learn to disregard the mind and all its pushings and screaming and always think of Krsna. Don’t take the mind seriously. Chant always.
20/08/06

We have to live to be Krsna conscious otherwise you can be certain that the future will bring anxiety and suffering. Servant can only serve, not be master. Krsna!
21/08/06

Time is very precious. You can never buy back 1 second, so be very careful not to waste it uselessly. Engage every second in glorifying and serving Krsna. Success!
22/08/06

All relationships, activities, possessions, bodies etc in this world are temporary and the cause of suffering when we are attached and think them ours in any way.
23/08/06

Living in material world means suffering. We must learn to tolerate suffering and not constantly be trying to alleviate it. Be KC no matter what and go home. Chant.
24/08/06

Are we trying to always think of Krsna and see all things in relation to Krsna? Everything is His. Nothing belongs to anyone else. Use everything to serve the Lord.
25/08/06

The all-auspicious holy name of the Lord can immediately burn to ashes countless millions of the most grievous sins. Chant. Have faith, patience and determination.
26/08/06

If we really want to be Krsna conscious we have to be very anxious about it, we cannot be casual. We have to want Krsna more than anything and all things. Chant.
27/08/06

This material world is no place for a gentleman! It is just like a wc. You do your business and get out as quick as possible. Don’t hang around. Hare Krsna.
28/08/06

We must pray to be eternally engaged in devotional service to Krsna. We should just want to be engaged in His service and absolutely nothing else then we go home.
30/08/06

Pray to Sri Radhe to be able to please Krsna by your service and chanting. She pleases Krsna more than everyone and is so very merciful. She will help, if you want.
31/08/06

May Sri Radhe be all-merciful to you all and may that sweet mercy enter your heart and stay there as your director and your proudest possession. Radhe.
01/09/06

If we do not know what our real eternal spiritual identity is, then we are in a suffering condition. We must serve and chant with complete devotion to reawaken us.
02/09/06

The king’s kingdom is like the dancer’s dance, in an instant it can be finished, in the same way Maya, the supreme controller acts. O mind, be always fearful of her.
04/09/06

Chant, chant, chant!!! Everything is in the Maha mantra, Radha, Krsna, the gopis, cowherd boys etc etc. The entire spiritual world. The only thing missing is US! Chant!
05/09/06

By chanting Krsna reaction to all sin is burnt up but we must pray to lose the attraction for enjoying independently from Krsna which causes us to act sinfully.
06/09/06

Krsna says ‘abandon everything and surrender unto Me’ the ultimate instruction! Our lives should be moulded around that instruction. Try, try, try a bit more daily.
07/09/06
Are we realizing we are spirit soul? Are we trying always to be conscious of this truth? Or are we going with the flow of our feelings and material energy. Chant
08/09/06

How can there be any real happiness in this world when at any second we know things are going to go wrong and misery is coming. Just anxiety in waiting. Chant now.
09/09/06

The only relief from material misery is to be completely Krsna conscious the way that Krsna wants. Anything else will cause anxiety therefore suffering. Chant!
11/09/06

Intelligent persons should control the mind restricting it from the illusion of seeing things separate from Krsna. See everything as Krsna’s or one is illusioned.
12/09/06

When will we willingly and with devotion want to just serve, remember and chant the glories of the Lord and His devotees? Pray with deep sincerity for that time.
13/09/06

One must chant and serve with the mood to please the Lord and with no other mood or desire in any way shape or form or one will not attain love for Krsna. Chant.
14/09/06

We can always go forward in life at every second. We must go forward. Advancement in KC is there at every second. Just think of Krsna and you advance. Hare Krsna.
15/09/06

Not the body, spirit soul. We’ve heard it so many times. But who is truly in that consciousness and living that at all times? We are the soul, and nothing else but.
16/09/06

How can we become the perfect servants? Just acting, thinking, speaking etc in the way that is always pleasing to Krsna. That will satisfy us nothing else. That’s luv.
17/09/06

Trust nothing in this temporary material world, not even your own judgement. Put full faith in the holy name, process of bhakti yoga and the Lord, they are Absolute.
18/09/06

When will we act, think, speak and be fully conscious at all times that we are not the body, spirit soul, the servant of Krsna and see all others in that way also?
19/09/06

Devotees should always be patiently waiting for the Lord’s mercy but not thinking themselves fit to attain that mercy, then the mercy will come. Humility wins.
20/09/06

Not the body, spirit soul. Have to become fixed in that realization or life will be a constant disturbance due to listening to the mind. Thinking. Feeling, willing.
22/09/06

As devotees, all we need is service of any sort. As long as we have service, then we are rightly situated. The servant only wants to serve at all times, eternally.
23/09/06

We should not perform devotional service expecting what we want as a result from our service and chanting. That is not DEVOTIONAL service. Serve to please Krsna!
24/09/06

The real purpose for chanting the holy name is to attain pure love of Krsna. We must chant with that purpose in heart and mind determined to re-awaken our love.
25/09/06
To understand everything on the basis of Krsna consciousness is the only true understanding. All else is misunderstanding and therefore useless and problematic.
26/09/06

Our only and only business is to re-awaken our dormant love of Godhead and absolutely nothing else. Everything else will cause us pain, distress and re-birth again.
27/09/06

Spirit Soul! When will we fully and completely accept that truth and act, think and fully function in that consciousness at all times and see all others that way.
28/09/06

Are we really taking our Krsna consciousness as seriously as we can or should? Are we making the only goal of our life? If not, then we will not be K.C.
29/09/06

We must make every effort to be KC in all ways possible and at all time with all thoughts and words and actions giving no time or thought to anything else. That’s KC.
30/09/06

We have to learn to tolerate whatever comes to us in this world and try at all times to fix the mind on Krsna remembering that nothing effects the eternal soul.
01/10/06

Determination and patience is required in performance of devotional service. Serve with determination not letting anything deter you. Krsna’s mercy will come.
02/10/06

Do we become affected by happiness, distress, heat, cold, honour, dishonour etc when they arise? If so, is our understanding of our true nature as eternal soul incomplete?
03/10/06

We have to see and fully accept everything in relation to Krsna and see and accept no other way. Anything else is false. Nothing is separate from Krsna. All is His.
04/10/06

No other force besides our own mental confusion makes the soul experience happiness and distress, heat and cold, friends and enemies etc. It is all ignorance. Krsna.
05/10/06

There is only one way to be KC. That’s the way that Krsna wants. Our own way is not being conscious of Krsna. Do what pleases Krsna. That’s the only way to be KC.
07/10/06

Human life, the best birth in the universe. The greatest chance to get free from repeated birth and death. We must take full advantage of out lives. Chant, serve now.
09/10/06

What do we have to offer Krsna? Everything is His! All we can try to do is learn to respect, appreciate and ultimately love Him. We have only devotion to offer. Try!
10/10/06

If we are not being KC then everything we say and do is insane and acting against our own eternal self interest and true nature, so will only end in misery. Chant.
11/10/06

Do not expect the material nature to be kind and loving to us. It is not meant to be enjoyed, we do not belong in the material world, so we will feel unrest always.
12/10/06

All we really need is the maha mantra, association of advanced devotees, service and prasadam. And we should pray for Krsna’s mercy, Chant, read, associate be happy.
13/10/06

We are the most fortunate to have connection with KC but we have to somehow or another stay in KC and in due course that unlimited fortune will be ours. Chant.
14/10/06

Every endeavour is covered by some sort of fault, Krsna says. But we must always do our best to offer service of the most devotional quality we possibly can.
15/10/06

No gift greater than the sweet holy name no love higher than pure Krsna prema is yours for the taking but do you really and truly want that real love. Chant.
17/10/06

There is no real pleasure to be gotten in this material world, it is all temporary and therefore a source of anxiety and lamentation. It is all illusion. Chant.
21/10/06

There is no satisfaction in anything material, it only brings pain. Eternal life with eternal service and eternal love is the only thing that will satisfy anyone.
23/10/06

We have to want to serve and love Krsna otherwise we will not get Him. Attaining KC is not an automatic thing, we have to have intense desire to be KC. Hare Krsna.
24/10/06

We may feel or think that there are many priorities in life, but the only priority is to learn to love Krsna and everything should lead to that or it is wasted.
25/10/06

Prabhupada has given everything. But, how much will we take? Will we take in proper mood? We pray that we will and others will also. Jaya Prabhupada! Hare Krsna!
26/10/06

I bow down to the feet of Lord Krsna, whose jewelled anklets tinkle and whose footprints decorate the paths of Vraj. (Vrndavana) Those feet are our shelter.
27/10/06

How wonderful are Krsna’s lotus feet! How wondrous are His lotus eyes. How wondrous His lotus face! O, how wondrous is His body! Wonderful Krsna! Our dear Lord.
28/10/06

We have chanted Hare Krsna and had prasadam, the end of our material existence will soon be over. Keep chanting, reading Gita etc.,. taking Prasad, the end will come soon.
29/10/06

NOW is always the very best time to remember Krsna and since there is no other time but NOW, then remember Krsna always, become His devotee, worship Him, go to Him.
30/10/06

To be KC we have to remember Krsna otherwise it is not KC. We have to remember to do everything the way Krsna wants at all times. That’s being conscious of Krsna.
31/10/06

Are you going back home to Godhead at the end of this life, Prabhupada wanted us to. We have to want to go more than everything else. Give all energy to that. GO!
04/11/06

We have to hear the holy name only when we chant, not the holy name and what the mind says. We have to pray with deep desire to hear the holy name ONLY, not mind.
08/11/06


Who knows us? Who do we know? Do we know ourselves? What is our eternal spiritual identity? Who is our eternal family etc? We don’t know. We must find out quickly.
09/11/06

If we truly wish to take full advantage of the great fortune that KC can give, we have to give up the so called fortunes that we hold onto, that are misfortunes.
10/11/06

We must work harder at being KC, lovers of Krsna, otherwise whatever we put the most energy into, that is what we will be most conscious of and ultimately attain .
12/11/06

When we know that we are going to leave this body and never return to all we are attached to. People, places, relationships, everything we relate to, won’t be easy.
13/11/06

When will we be urgent about making constant efforts to leave this material world and go home instead of making arrangements how to stay here comfortably. Chant.
14/11/06

Do we really and truly want Krsna? Or do we just actually want what we want and hope that by being KC we will get what we want. Are we still being self centred?
15/11/06

Are we really making arrangements to give up this temporary mortal world and go home back to Godhead, or are we making a future in this world? GO!
22/11/06

We need Krsna’s mercy. We must pray, beg, cry or do whatever we have to in order to get that mercy. Without it we will never go home or attain love of Krsna. Chant!
23/11/06

We never know what will happen in life, but we should at all times practice depending on Krsna by chanting, remembering, serving and hearing of Him. Be determined.
24/11/06

Maya is really there. She does definitely exist, we should never forget that fact. We have to be afraid of Maya so much so, that we run to take shelter of Krsna now.
29/11/06

What you are doing NOW is what matters. Are you hearing the holy name NOW? Are you thinking of Krsna NOW? Is what you are doing KC NOW? We can only deal with NOW!
04/12/06

Everything is Krsna’s! What do we have to offer Him? Nothing except our love and devotion. That’s the only thing He does not have. Are we going to give Him that?
05/12/06

We must be very careful about envy. We are envious when we think we are the controller or that things belong to us. Everything is for Krsna’s pleasure not ours.
06/12/06

Everything in this world is temporary, our bodies, our relationships with others, our belongings, the universe. Only our relationship with our Lord is eternal. Chant.
08/12/06

Srila Prabhupada has given us everything. He gave us the holy name of Krsna which is Krsna Himself. What more can we ask for than the Supreme Lord. He is all things.
10/12/06

Do we really believe and accept that we are spirit soul? Are we acting, speaking and thinking like we are the soul? Are we seeing all other living beings as soul?
11/12/06
Loving and serving Krsna and His devotees is our eternal natural way of life. We must get back to that way or we will always suffer. Bhakti is our eternal mood.
12/12/06

Our one and only business is to spend all our time and energy becoming true lovers of Krsna, anything else will just be a cause of suffering and anxiety. Krsna he.
13/12/06

To be KC we have to want to be absolutely KC and nothing else, otherwise it is not being conscious of Krsna if we want or think of something else. Krsna alone.
14/12/06

We are in the material worlds due to our envy and lust. Nothing is ours, everything is Krsna’s. Use everything to serve Krsna and become free from this envy and lust.
15/12/06

The material world is a place of suffering and death, so we should not expect anything else or be surprised that we are suffering. Just go on with our KC anyway.
16/12/06

The holy name of Krsna can burn up the reactions to more sins than one can commit, but we have to give up the desire for sinful material enjoyment. Chant
19/12/06

We must have patience and faith in KC and continue chanting and following to our best ability no matter what happens. We will go home to Krsna at some point. Try.
20/12/06

Lord Caitanya is so special. He gave pure love of Krsna which had never been given before. We just have to chant and accept that love. Keep chanting, it will come!
21/12/06

We must become addicted to chanting the holy name and that is possible when there is taste for chanting. That comes by hearing with rapt attention. Try and see.
21/12/06

Happiness is like a butterfly, you run after it, it keeps flying away, but if you stand still, it comes and sits on our shoulder. Wish you lots of butterflies, Gouranga! Shanti
22/12/06

There is always dualities in this material world. Happiness, distress, heat, cold, love, hate etc etc. But we have to learn to tolerate them by being fixed in KC. Try.
23/12/06

Always go forward in KC, be absorbed and conscious of what you are doing at the present moment, in that way you can be KC at this very second. Be KC now. Hear, chant.
27/12/06

Devotee has compassion for all no matter what the situation, otherwise it will be envy, disrespect, revenge, indifference etc., pray for compassion for all.
28/12/06

Since KC cannot be purchased in any shopping mall, we have nothing to offer the All-Transcendent-Lord but our bhakti, loving service in reciprocation for His love.
29/12/06

We, who are such slaves to time, to knowing it, to saving it, to managing it, to chasing it, to not having enough of it. But are we using all our time for Krsna? Serve.
31/12/06

What’s new about 1st January 2007, just another day. But another chance to come closer to our Lord, take advantage of every moment, life is fast disappearing.
04/01/07
We are all actually alone in this world. No one knows us when we are born and who really knows us now. Krsna knows us, go to Him, He is our dearmost friend. Get Him.
04/01/07

Somehow or other we have to attain full faith in the chanting of the Holy Name. Beg, borrow or steal the nectar of the name. Pray for that full faith in the Name.
04/01/07

We must always remember that Krsna knows the truth at all times. He is the Absolute Truth. You can’t bluff Krsna. Do everything to actually please Krsna. Hare Krsna.
05/01/07

All the actions one performs are only so much useless labour if they do not provoke attraction for the Supreme Lord. Therefore work to satisfy the Lord. Chant.
06/01/07

Trying to enjoy in this material world is the cause of our suffering. Human life is meant for getting out of this world not for trying to enjoy it. Serve Krsna!
07/01/07

Do we really want Krsna? Will we do anything and everything to get Krsna? Will we chant all the time attentively? Then we will have Krsna. He is His name, It’s Him!
08/01/07

Servant we are by constitution, so it is our very nature to serve, we will never be actually happy until we are fully absorbed in serving our Lord with love. Serve.
09/01/07

We must live only to serve the Lord and nothing else. Anything else will keep us in this world, suffering. It is our nature to serve, so serve we must. SERVE
10/01/07

The only thing that obstructs us in Krsna consciousness is our own attachments, desires, lust and laziness. We can chant and think of Krsna at any and all times.
11/01/07

Without Krsna there would not be anything. Without Krsna, nothing has meaning. If we want anything to have meaning we must see it in relation to Krsna. True reality.
14/01/07

Krsna is pure love, pure knowledge, pure everything. What could we need more than Krsna? What could be better than Krsna? To want anything else is surely insanity.
15/01/07

We can only truly say we know something in this world when we know and remember Krsna always. Because you never know what is going to happen next in this world!
16/01/07

The spiritual world is our eternal home where we truly belong. But we will not go there if we keep making arrangements to be comfortable and happy in this world.
18/01/07

We have to develop compassion otherwise love will not grow in our hearts. Only envy, hatred, revenge and self-centredness will grow. Chant, preach, serve constantly.
22/01/07

Are we really accepting Krsna or are we trying to get Krsna to accept us. Only when we truly accept Krsna will we be accepted by Him and into the spiritual sky.
23/01/07

If we are trying to be happy, it means we are not happy! It also means we are not acting as soul. Soul is eternally full of bliss. Hare Krsna.
26/01/07
