1. Radharani thinks Herself the lowest!

    Radharani thinks always Herself as the lowest of the devotees. She thinks always. She sees always that the gopis, other gopis, they are better qualified to serve Krsna, and She is not qualified, so much qualified. Therefore in Vrndavana, you’ll find the devotees approach Radharani: “Jaya Radhe,” because if Radharani advocates for him to Krsna, it is […]
  2. Why is Radharani worshiped?

    Why Radharani is worshiped by the devotees? His (her) spirit is like that. If anyone, She finds a nice devotee of Krsna, She immediately recommends to Krsna, “How nice this devotee. He can render better service than Me. Please accept him.” This is spiritualism. This is spiritualism. Who can give better service than Radharani? She is so […]
  3. Where is the action?

    Unless you love Krsna, why you should be interested to make others Krsna conscious? Let them go to hell. Why you should be so much working hard to make them Krsna conscious, unless you love Krsna? This is the sign of love. “I love Krsna, but I do nothing for Krsna,” that is nonsense. That […]
  4. Establishing farms to show how to be happy

    In human society, therefore, the brahminical culture, ksatriya culture and vaisya culture must be maintained, and people must be taught how to be satisfied with only what they need. In modern civilization there is no such education; everyone tries to possess more and more, and everyone is dissatisfied and unhappy. The Krsna consciousness movement is […]
  5. No question of bhakti as long as…

    Our material disease lies in wanting to satisfy our senses. Advancement of civilization means advancement of sense gratification, but bhakti means just the opposite. As long as we are interested in sense gratification, there is no question of bhakti. We have to reduce our tendency for sense gratification and increase our devotional activities. (From Teachings of Lord […]
  6. Why we don’t say “maybe”

    Here we have to practice to become siddha, perfect. But there, in the Siddhaloka, they are so perfect that they can go from one planet to another. The yogis can go, but they are born yogis. This is described in the Srimad-Bhagavatam. We have seen in this Second Canto, there is Siddhaloka. So many planets are there, […]
  7. What is preaching?

    Preaching means that you have to turn the rascals and unfortunate to become intelligent and fortunate. That is preaching. Unless they are fortunate and intelligent, they cannot take to Krsna consciousness. From Srila Prabhupada’s lecture on Bhagavad-gita As It Is 16.6, South Africa, 18 October, 1975
  8. Self-sufficiency

    On the 19th January 1975, Srila Prabhupada wrote to Mahamsa: “Now we should have self-sufficiency. This means to make our own food grains grow and to weave our own cloth–like in Mayapur. If we have food grains, milk, and cloth, life becomes easy and we can save time for preaching and chanting.”
