BIG DREAMS are on the inside of each one of you. One day you’re going to start a temple, own a business, come out of debt, raise wonderful children. Krishna always puts bigger things in our spirit than our mind can handle. Don’t talk yourself out of it.
1. Be still, my soul! the Lord is on your side; Bear patiently the cross of grief or pain; Leave to your God to order and provide; In ev’ry change he faithful will remain. Be still, my soul! your best, your heav’nly friend Thru’ thorny ways leads to a joyful end. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna […]
We have to believe that HE IS DIRECTING OUR STEPS and to go with the flow. If you are going to become a vessel of gold, you have to STAY ON THE POTTERS WHEEL and be willing to change. Nothing in your life happens by accident. The delays, the grouchy clerk, the slow waiter, and […]
Let the story unfold, About a swami from India, brave and bold. Seventy years young, with a mission in his soul, Prabhupada’s tale, let the rhythm take control. (Verse 1) Nineteen sixty-five, a voyage on the sea, Heart attacks strikin’, but his spirit runs free. Seven dollars in his pocket, that’s all he had, New […]
(Intro) Yo, check the mic, one two, this ain’t no ordinary tune It’s a hymn of the earth, under the sun and moon From the soil we spring, with a spiritual glow Let the rhythm flow, watch the seeds we sow! (Verse 1) Sunrise paints the sky, a brand new day begins On temple land […]
Our message today is that “if you can dream it, Krishna can do it.” Prabhupada was talking about the freedoms enjoyed by Narada Muni, “Every living being is anxious for full freedom because that is his transcendental nature. We, parts and parcels of God, are more than dull dead matter, we are created above time […]
anta-kāle cha mām eva smaran muktvā kalevaram yaḥ prayāti sa mad-bhāvaṁ yāti nāsty atra saṁśayaḥ At life’s final end, with body cast aside, Whoever remembers Me, will with Me abide. He attains My nature, eternal and pure, Of this, O Arjuna, be confident and sure. (Intro) Yo, this is the final lesson, the ultimate test, […]
Prabhupada. “Crows and swans are not birds of the same feather because of their different mental attitudes. The crows take pleasure in a place where garbage is thrown out, just as the passionate fruitive workers take pleasure in wine and woman and places for gross sense pleasure. The swans do not take pleasure in the […]
Here’s the key: you have to give yourself PERMISSION to be happy. Sometimes we buy into the lie that we’re not supposed to be happy. We’ve been through too much. We’ve made too many mistakes. If we’re happy, people may not understand. Can I tell you? You’re SUPPOSED to be happy! Krishna CREATED YOU to […]
(Verse 1) Yo, check it, fam, listen close to the start, Vai and I, with aspiration in heart. To Utah’s plains, our journey we brought, A radio station, the prize that we sought. A concrete vision, a mission defined, To spread a message, connect humankind. Yeah, a substantial task, a mountain to scale, A broadcast […]
This isn’t about simply achieving what you set out to do. This is about accomplishing goals that lie FAR BEYOND what you currently think or even dare to imagine. It’s about TAPPING INTO a source of support and grace that can elevate your aspirations and manifest results you couldn’t have conceived on your own. When […]
As souls on a spiritual journey, striving to deepen our connection with the Supreme Person, Krishna, we inevitably encounter periods that feel dry and unfulfilling. The Bhagavad Gita, in its profound wisdom, speaks of the cyclical nature of life, of happiness and distress arriving like the summer and winter seasons (BG 2.14). These “dry seasons” […]
Feeling trapped? Stuck in a career rut, a stagnant relationship, or watching your goals gather dust? It’s a heavy, draining sensation, a universal ache we all experience. We often wonder, “Is this all there is?” or even, “Is there some divine purpose in this discomfort?” That feeling of being rooted to one spot, unable to […]
Then came the initiation, a pivotal phase, Into Krishna’s divine names, dispelling all haze. The essential process, for this epoch, He said, A conduit to freedom, where enlightenment’s spread. With the sacred mantra, Nimai’s spirit took flight, Chanting with fervor, bathed in divine light. A sudden rapture, a transcendental delight, Swooning in bliss, beyond the […]
You couldn’t find any place in scripture where someone did something significant, they didn’t have messy places, times it wasn’t fair, times they didn’t mistakes, times they felt disqualified. But when it all came together IT MADE SENSE. They went from CONSTRUCTION TO COMPLETION. Here’s the key. You cannot properly judge the construction process without […]
David DeWitt: Look around you right now, wherever you are: desks, tables, electronics, electricity, light bulbs, appliances, glassware, furniture, knick-knacks, artwork, paint, carpeting, buildings. All of those things require science, engineering, mathematics, chemistry, physics, logistics, expertise. Experts. Smart people. Smart people gave us all of this. Intelligence gave us every amazing thing that we see […]
All striving is doing is WEARING you out, MAKING you feel overwhelmed; can’t sleep at night, have digestive problems. Take the pressure OFF. It’s not your job to FIX everything. You can’t MAKE people do what’s right, MAKE your co-worker like you, MAKE your business grow. Your job is to be your best each day, […]
Srila Prabhupada How Can We Repay O! Srila Prabhupada, You crossed the rough seas during your life’s twilight, To bring living entities out of their material plight. A spiritual formula you took to one and all, How can we repay this infinite debt, if at all ? O! Srila Prabhupada, You made the Jaladuta and […]
(Verse 1) Yo, a fire sacrifice, ghee flowing free, Agni consumed it all, for all eyes to see. But too much buttery offerings, an overload, Left the fire god aching, in a heavy, bloated mode. Indigestion fierce, his brilliance declined, Only one curative came to his mind. (Verse 2) The Khandava forest, with herbs potent […]
