The lowest person from the lowest country

The lowest person from the lowest country

had this hatred to my country of birth Denmark,, I later realized it goes back to

the 1500th massacre in Stockholm .Called the Stockholm blood bath

orchestrated by then King Christian the second of Denmark ,trying to crush

the Protestants in Sweden on behalf of the Pope in ROME,,that would later make

people in Denmark PROTESTANTS also .I thought what a…

When politics becomes a blessing for a devotee

You all remember how Vidura was kicked out of Hastinapure by Duryodhana because he always

took the side of the Pandavas and Dharma ,,but Dhrtarastra was so blind with love for his demoniac son.

I went through something similar in 1984 because I refused to sell any more illegal paintings for the temple

I wanted to only distribute Srila Prabhupadas books,, and Srila Prabhupada told me in a dream tell these

Where Ekachakra got its name from !

When Krsna saw Arjuna was not going to kill Bhismadeva ,,Krsna broke His promise to protect Arjuna from Bhismadevs arrows and attacked Bhismadeva with the broken wheel from a chariot ,,Arjuna grapped Krsna to not kill Bhismadeva and brake His promise and Bhismadeva surrendered to Krsna,, my dear Krsna please kill me if you so please,, Krsna threw the Chakra from Kuruksetra and it landed in what is now known as Ekachakra, one wheel ,,this is how…

Email exhange with Brhgupati Prabhu over Visnutattva days fasting

You are a liar ,dementia or bad memory due to old age,? Or plain cheating propensity ,,I think it is the last one

Srila Prabhupada did not have to explain the harsh consequences because it was understood that we follow Ekadasi on Visnutattva days no grains this standard was followed in all of ISKCON from 1965 to around 1998

Many devotees I’ve spoken to dont remember that

but some fallen rascals like yourself… Continue

Narada Muni advises Kamsa from Garga Samhita

Narada Muni advises Kamsa from Garga Samhita

It is interesting that Kamsa seated Narada Muni on a thrown and had him worshipped and fanned ,,the painting is not accurate because Kamsa had a little Vedic culture to at least honor Narada Muni so this detail is given Garga Samhita
