≻ What TSA Fails to Detect We are Krishna's part and parcel, all living entities, but we do not see each other. You cannot see me, I do not see you. "No, I see you." What you see? You see my body. More
≻ Defeated by Fear Don't you think that the body is full of danger? Then, why are you going there, taking repeated birth? When you are flying in a plane, you are always fearful that there may be a crash. And what is this crashing? It is due to the body. The soul cannot be affected by crashes. But you are always afraid. More
≻ Antilia: tycoon's highrise home appointed with every comfort and pleasure Prahlada Maharaja says that everything about material pleasure is already fixed. The uncivilized men in the jungle are having the same sex pleasure as the so-called civilized men who boast, "Instead of living in that hut made of leaves, we are living in a skyscraper building. This is advancement." But Vedic civilization says, "No, this is not advancement. Real advancement is self-realization—how much you have realized your relationship with God." More

≻ Glass temple reflections
That a copy (though not exact) of ISKCON's Changing Bodies diorama is now decorating the high wall of a glass temple in Malaysia is testimony of the far-reaching influence of the teachings of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. More
≻ Dredging the Krishna A few months ago, I heard that that two former Hare Krishna ISKCON leaders affiliated with the GBC were going to great lengths, spending millions of dollars of investors' money to arrange for the dredging of the Krishna River. More
≻ In search of a spiritual experience I've often thought how lucky I was on my visit to India. Some Westerners wander around India for years—meeting various yogis and so-called gurus, shopping in bazaars, contracting diseases, and generally getting lost. More
≻ High Desert One day Srila Prabhupada asked two leaders in the field of book distribution, “What you will do when the cities are closed?” More

≻ Getting away from it all?
They have, somehow or other, they have come in contact with this material nature, and each and every one of these living entities, they are making, having a hard struggle for existence. But under the spell of the illusory energy, they are thinking we are happy. More
≻ What 70 million people look like This holy place is situated on the confluence of the rivers Ganges and Yamuna. Every year a fair takes place there known as Magha-mela, and every twelve years a Kumbha-mela is also held. In any case, many people come to bathe there every year. More
≻ What to Look for in Holy Places If we take simply the advantage of the pious river... but we don't care for the persons who are living there, very experienced, spiritually advanced persons, then we remain animals. "So we have gone to such holy place. I have taken bath in the Ganges and Yamuna. Bas [finished]. My business is finished." Then go to the shop, purchase some plate, toys, go back home. More
≻ The Point of Visiting the Holy Places It is not the journey but the method of its performance that really matters. Any journey that is performed under the lead of the sadhu is a spiritual function. No journey that is not so performed can have any spiritual value. More
