Annually 40 or so students from Snow College motor up to the Sunday Feast at the Krishna Temple in Spanish Fork, as part of a course on Eastern Philosophy. These are some of the questions they had for Caru Das, and his answers.

The Higher Taste
Maybe you need to be more disciplined in choosing your friends, in choosing your thought life (less negative). Maybe you need to be more disciplined in choosing your words, in choosing how you spend your money, in how you spend your time. Any areas where we are not disciplined, we will not grow. Don’t let any […]
How To Make Great Choices
Without admitting that we can’t do it ourselves, we can’t make great decisions, because we don’t have the capacity, the intellect, the vision, like Krishna does. Krishna is the Alpha and Omega. He created everything. He’s past, present, and future. He’s within the heart of every living being. He’s within the atom. Until we admit […]
It’s Easy To Be Me
Successful people are so focused on their goals, they don’t have time to look around and see what everybody else is doing. Run your race, and when someone passes you by, don’t be intimidated. Be inspired. If Krishna did it for them, He can do it for you. If you can’t celebrate people who are […]
Wear Your Blessings Well
Don’t apologize for Krishna’s goodness. Don’t downplay what God has done in your life. Don’t make excuses cause a friend might be jealous. Don’t try to hide God’s blessings cause a co worker might judge you and think it unfair. The moment you start apologising for what Krishna has done, downplaying His goodness, is when […]
The Precision of God
You have the unlimited Lord breathing in your direction. Like with Prabhupada, you can step into promotion, step into favor, step into new levels of your destiny.

Krishna’s Underdog
Krishna loves it when people underestimate His devotees. When the odds are against you, when others are telling you how it’s not going to work out, KRISHNA will cause you to blossom, to bloom, and accomplish what seems impossible.
A Divine Perspective
Like with Arjuna, Krishna is going to put promises in your heart that don’t make sense. There’s no way you can defeats those enemies, no way you can turn the situation around, no way you can get out of debt. How can your miracle happen? It’s not going to be in your own strength, your […]
Disconnect From Discord
You have to be careful who you take advice from. You Have to be careful who you let influence you. Are they healthy, productive? Do they have good judgment, clear vision. Do they have your best interests at heart? OR are they discontent, bitter, living from a place of offense? Do they have unsavory motives. […]
Seasons of our Lives
We are eternal. Our nature is to find a permanent niche, lasting security. That is not to be found in this material world. Like looking for water in a desert. We are “sat’ (permanent beings) in an “asat” (impermanent) world. We get comfortable with family, co-workers, & even if it’s not ideal, fulfilling, at least […]
