"‎There is nothing in the world more fortunate than to taste the sweetness of the Divine and to be humbled by that mercy" 

 Jai Shree Krishna...Radhey Radhey
-Swetha Krihsnan (on Facebook)


Talk to your bestfriend...


 we chant we chant we chant and we chant...and the feeling of love and attachement to the holy name doesnt come...why ?maybe...we need to consulte the Supreme Person we want to feel love for...
i remember the saying :
                          "until and unless you are able to joke with your Lord as a
                                  friend, you haven't feel the love for Him yet"
He should be the one you talk to when you have problems..the first one you call out for help...the first one you share your good news with...the one who should be always in your mind no matter what you do...
only He deserve your full attention...
when you realize that He is not your illusion but your real friend
and that Him and His name is non different
and when you chant you are actually talking to Hm....the Person...
then you will feel that love...that attachement...for that beautful lotus feet of His :)
please read the aritcle on this link...it gives more detailed explanation on how to imporve chanting by loving Krishnas' holy name...it takes time but its worth it :)

Krishna is Everywhere

There is nowhere where Krishna is not present. He's in the sky. He's in the trees. He's in the flowers. He's in the breeze. If you want to feel amazingly alive, always electrified by His divine presence, you must call out His names with pure love accepting Him as your only shelter. If you do so, you will enter into your eternal identity situated billions and trillions of light years beyond this ...universe and all the universes of this material existence. If you continue faithfully, patiently with this process of awakening your love of Krishna, your vision will gradually become more and more clarified reaching that magnificently splendorous point where you will be able to clearly see Krishna everywhere.

THe best historian....Vaishnava historian :)

as i live in a place where devotees are rare to be found
i receive the mercy of the Lord to associate through this medium
and i found the best storyteller in the world
a vaishnava historian to be formal
one prabhu that inspires me
one who gives access to
the holiest of  books
of the Vaishnava Saints
in service of his Guru
Srila Prabhupada
i offer my respects to
prabhu Chaturatma Das
may he get the eternal shelter of the lotus feet
of  Lord Chaitanya and Lord Nityananda

you can see his videos in
where he tells in the form of stories the lives of the great Vaishnava Acharyas such as Narottam Das Thakur, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati, the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan, etc

The Divine Couple will capture your heart :)

KIRTANIYAH SADA HARI


 Constantly engage in chanting the names of Sri Hari


govinda jaya jaya, gopala jaya jaya
Radha-Ramana hari, govinda jaya jaya

"The process is how to think of Krsna. Man-mana bhava mad-bhaktah. This is meditation. So this... By kirtana it becomes very easy. If you chant Hare Krsna maha-mantra twenty-four hours like Haridasa Thakura... That is not possible. So as much as possible... Tirtha-yasasa. Kirtana, this is also kirtana. We are talking about Krsna, reading about Krsna, reading Krsna's instruction in the Bhagavad-gita or reading Krsna's glories in the Srimad-Bhagavatam. They are all kirtana. It is not that simply when we sing with musical instruments, that is kirtana. No. Anything you talk about Krsna, that is kirtan."
~ from Srila Prabhupada's lecture on Srimad Bhagavatam 3.28.18 on October 27, 1975 in Nairobi

Srila Prabhupada ~ " Simply our prayer should be, My dear Krishna, please remind me to always chant Your Holy Name, please do not put me into forgetfulness. You are sitting within me as Supersoul, so you can put me into forgetfulness or into remembering You. So please do not put me into forgetfulness. Please always remind me to chant, even You send me into the hell, it doesn't matter, just so long as I can always chant Hare Krishna..."
