By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 14, 2025   ~Featured~, Philosophy  

Service or Slavery—The Choice Is Yours

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 14, 2025   Devotees

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 13, 2025   Prabhupada  

The Dis-United Nations — Srila Prabhupada

Suppose I ask the United Nations to explain the purpose of this cosmic manifestation. I am created a man, another is created an elephant, and another is created an ant. Why? The sun is rising on time, the moon is rising on time, seasons are changing. What is the purpose behind this?

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 12, 2025   Prabhupada  

You may enjoy, but by enjoying you forget your real goal in life. Is that intelligent? You have been given the human body to improve your next life. Suppose you become a dog in your next life. Is that success? You must know the science of Krsna consciousness.

1972 Prabhupada Interview by New York Times

God is there. Anyone can go back to Him and live an eternal life full of bliss and knowledge simply by knowing about it. When God Himself comes, all great acaryas, stalwart men, accept Him: “Yes, He is God.” If we simply understand God, we make a solution to all our problems.

If the people of Paris would have installed the Deity of Krsna in these buildings, how nice that would have been! People chanting, dancing, and taking prasadam [food offered to Krsna] every day. Then there would have been no maya.

When Men Become Animals

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 12, 2025   Prabhupada, ~Featured~

How to See and Know God

By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada on May 10, 2025   ~Featured~, Preaching  

How to See and Know God

Krsna is explaining Himself. But suppose you say, “How can I believe that Krsna said these words? Somebody may have written them in the name of Krsna.” No. Because the Bhagavad-gita is accepted by saintly persons, we should also accept it.
