Parsva Ekadasi

Sri Yudhishthira Maharaja asked of Lord Sri Krishna, "What is the name of that Ekadasi that occurs during the light fortnight (shukla paksha) of the month of Bhadrapada (August-September "Hrishikesha mase") ? Who is the worshipable Deity for this Ekadasi, and what merit does one attain in observing it? Kindly reveal all of this to me my Lord." The Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Sri Krishna addressed His devoted Yudhishthira as follows, "This Ekadasii, Oh Yudhishthira,…

Srila Prabhodananda Sarasvati Thakura has written in his Caitanya Candramrta:

13 May Lord Caitanya, whose shoulders are like a lion’s, whose smiling cheeks are the sweetest of all sweet things, whose body displays various wonderful symptoms of ecstatic love of Krsna, whose features are as splendid as the whorl of a blossoming golden lotus flower, and who is Sri Radha and Krsna joined in a single form, protect you all.

68 O Lord Krsna, Your golden form is the life of the…

How Lord Caitanya observed Janmastami and Radhastami

For the pleasure of the vaisnavas ,I am posting the pastimes Lord Caitanya performed to observe Janmastami and Radhastami as narrated by Narahari Charavati in his Bhakti Ratnakara:

Mahaprabhu’s dancing on Janmastami day in the house of Srivasa.

One day in the house of Srivasa, Prabhu announced, “Tomorrow is the birthday of Krsna.” Srivasa and others, knowing the mind of Prabhu, at once understood that tomorrow He would dance…

"The Sari disaster"

Krsna Bhavanamrta was a favorite of Srila Prabhupada because in Krsna book he writes we can read it and stay absorbed in Krsna consciousness,I once read it with Aindra Prabhu and the book is so full of transcendental humor, you just laugh and laugh and the pastimes of Radha Krsna are so sweet..Radha Krsna are doing Night time pastimes eternally as described by Srila Visvanath Chakravarti Thakura and Radha Krsna are resting in the Kunjas of Vraja and Vrinda devi send…

"If I am not following Srila Rupa Gosvami then I should die. There is no purpose to my life."

What is the meaning of Radha Madhava Kunja Bihari ?

Krsna enjoys pastimes with Sri Radha during Madhyana Lila at Radha Kunda and Shyma Kunda but at night Radha Krsna and the gopis have Rasa lila, then they bath in Yamuna and put new cloth have snacks and music and lie down in Nikunjas , the grows of Vrindavana ,that is the real meaning of Radha Madhava Kunja Bihari we should all visit Nidhuvana and Seva Kunja as many times we can in this body and pay obeisances there and place the dust…

Real Caturmasya was observed by Aindra Prabhu !

I have only seen one Sadhu in my life that really observed Caturmasya the way Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada used to observe it. It is our own Sripada Aindra Prabhu , since 1987 when I came back to Vrindavana he started to observe Caturmasya and he would fast the proper way, taking Havisana unspiced Kitri for 4 months,I do not recall what he then took on Ekadasi ,if he had some Ekadasi prasadam or he did Nirjala fasting because I have…

Pandavas pranams

Please accept the blessings of my Gurudeva and Srila Prabhupada

this sannyasi a disciple of my Gurudeva has written something very important:

With the help of Sri Balarama Swami BV Parivrajak

Balarama helps us to purify our hearts (Vrindavan) by killing two demons: Dhenuka and Pralamba. He killed many other demons such as Dvivida Gorilla, Balvala, the wrestlers in the arena of Kansa, and others, but Dhenuka and Pralamba…

Lord Balarama is eternal and so are His Gopis

My Godbrother Rupa stated that Lord Balarama does not have His Gopis in Goloka Vrindavana ,this is his opinion and is against what has been taught by Vrindavana das Thakura in Adi Lila Caitanya Bhagavata chapter 1 :
