≻ Violence at School When A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami (Srila Prabhupada) spoke these words in 1973, he was referring to the misdirection of modern education, which back then was churning out hippies, but now we see the literal truth of his words. More

≻ Shelter from the Storm The
wealth of the world actually belongs to Krishna, and every living
entity, man and animal, has the birthright to use God's property for
his maintenance. When one takes more than his maintenance requires—be
he a capitalist or a communist—he is a thief, and as such he is liable
to be punished by the laws of nature. More
≻ You Too Will Be Kicked Out Today you are a nationalist, you are a very great follower of your country, but tomorrow if you stay in your country you may be a cow being taken to the slaughterhouse. More
≻ Give Your Life to Krishna Why you are thinking that you can give in charity? Therefore God says, dadasi yat: "If you are thinking to make some charity, give it to Me." More
≻ Karma-free Welfare Work We may perform work which may be very altruistic or humanitarian in the opinion of the world and yet be bound to material activity. So it is not the action itself which is important but the consciousness in which the action is carried out. More
≻ Mud Eruption and Water Shortages: misuse of industry The more we go on increasing such troublesome industries to squeeze out the vital energy of the human being, the more there will be unrest and dissatisfaction of the people in general, although a few only can live lavishly by exploitation. More
≻ What is the Matter with the World? The more the people are turning to the atheistic, the more things of disturbing elements do appear before us. And that is the thing which matters at present. This is a wrong type of civilization. More
≻ You Always Get What's Coming to You "You always get what's coming to you. No one can avoid the laws of destiny. Therefore I regret nothing, and nothing astonishes me. What destiny gives me, no one can take away." More
≻ Utilize for Krishna Don't consider what will happen to this world. The nature will take care of it. You don't puzzle your brain with these thoughts. You utilize whatever time you have got in your possession and go back to home, back to Godhead. You cannot check it. Best thing is that you mold your life and go back to home, back to Godhead. "Oil in your own machine." More
≻ An Open Letter to Pope Paul VI from A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami I beg to introduce myself as an Indian monk, following the Vedic principles of religious life. At the present, I am in the renounced order of Sannyas, aged 72 years, and am preaching God consciousness all over the world. More
≻ Working like Asses He is loading so much, and what he is eating? Little grass. So the ass does not know, "The grass is available here. Why shall I work for him?" That is ass. He is working so hard for a few morsel of grass, and the grass is all over the world, but he will take the load. More
≻ Nothing Else Needs to be Done We are living in a society that is based on something that is so fundamentally erroneous, as a result we are working for nothing, working for things we don't need. More
≻ You Want to be Rockefeller? Shripada Shankaracharya is advising us that we should not unnecessarily endeavor to increase our wealth or waste time trying to improve our economic situation. That is the negative. The positive instruction is instead of trying to improve our economic standard, we should rather try to cultivate spiritual intelligence and improve our spiritual standing. More
