Each Sunday Talk highlights a specific area of spiritual life. Most are a part of a larger series, such as the Love Series and A Purposeful Life Series. In these audio files, Caru Das (a devotee of Lord Krishna for 52 years), clearly explains important aspects of the Bhakti Journey with relevance to modern life.
Below are some quotes from listeners:
“Fabulous speaker! I can’t get enough of Caru Das. Wise, funny, engaging, entertaining and you feel the truth and integrity of his message.
Forget religion and preconceptions about the Krishnas etc and just listen to be uplifted. You’ll feel like you’ve rediscovered the long lost human codex or manual to existence and satisfying living.”

Many times it’s uncomfortable to make the right decision. We have to suffer thru that period of not getting our way. When Krishna asks us to do something hard: walk away from a friend who is polluting us, be more disciplined in what we watch, control our temper. He’s never trying to take something from […]
Know I’m here to put you on notice today. There’s been a shift in gears. Krishna will give you breaks that you didn’t deserve. He’ll bring the right people across your path. You’ll see opportunity like you’ve never seen it before. He’ll take you further faster. Get those two words down in your spirit. It […]
We can choose FEAR or FAITH. All thru the day, we have the choice to believe Krishna is in control, taking care of us, & has good things in store OR we can go around worried, expecting the worst, wondering if we are going to make it. Fear and faith both ask us to believe […]
Get your command center sending out the right instructions. I’m not going to send out what I feel. I’m not going to send out what my circumstances are telling me. I’m not going to send out what other people are saying about me. I’m going to= to believe what KRISHNA says about me. I’m blessed, […]
Stop choosing to be upset. We were never promised our circumstances would be perfect in order for us to be happy. The things that are upsetting you right now – they don’t have to. The people who are aggravating you, even if they don’t change, they don’t have to. If YOU”LL make adjustments & change […]
Krishna sees if you have a heart after him. He sees your sincerity. He sees your integrity. He sees your spirit of excellence. He sees you honoring Him by daily chanting His Holy Names. What’s on the inside is more powerful than what’s on the outside. Hare Krishna. Keep being your best. Even when no […]
You may have a REASON for feeling sorry for yourself, but you do not have a RIGHT to feel sorry for yourself. I’ll tell you why. Krishna will never give you a TEST without also giving the ability to PASS it. Even when you are hurt, injured, and tempted to excuse yourself: “Well I wanted […]
We all have strengths. We all have weaknesses. That’s not our own doing, but GRACE OF GOD. Some are secure & confident cause they had a great family life. They had great parents. I can’t judge the actions of someone who was not blessed in that way. If the roles had been reversed, I don’t […]
KRISHNA saves the BEST FOR NEXT. You may feel like you’re coming to an end. Opportunities are drying up. Doors are closing. Favor is expiring. What used to work is not working. Resources are depleted. You’re having a hard time making ends meet. Maybe you’re running out of strength. You feel weary, drained. You don’t […]
But having faith doesn’t exempt us from difficulties. The storms of life come to every person. We get a bad medical report. A friend betrays us. Business takes a downturn. In the difficult times, it’s easy to think, “ Krishna, where are you? How could you let this happen to me”? No, the same God […]
