  1. Islamic militants blamed as 35 Hindus are killed PRAKRIITI GUPTA IN JAMMU http://thescotsman.scotsman.com/international.cfm?id=653482006 SUSPECTED Islamic militants have killed at least 35 Hindus in separate incidents in Indian Kashmir. Twenty-two people were gunned down when a village was raided, and the bodies of 13 shepherds abducted over the weekend have been found. In the village raid, more than a dozen militants dressed in army fatigues stormed Panjdobi and Thava hamlets in Doda province, and asked the Hindu families to gather at the house of the local head- man. The villagers were then lined up and shot indiscriminately, a police spokesman said. Rakesh Sharma, an eyewitness whose brother was among the injured, said they were sleeping when armed gunmen dressed in army uniforms knocked and asked them to gather at the headman's house. "We were tied with ropes, beaten and then lined up and shot at. I escaped while many were dead. There was blood and cries all around," he said. "Since there was no security forces in proximity, the injured were shifted to hospital only at 8am in the morning." For centuries, Kashmir's Hindus - known as Pandits - lived peacefully alongside the area's Muslim majority. But the Pandits have been targeted relentlessly by Islamic insurgents who have been fighting since 1989 to wrest Kashmir from largely Hindu India. An estimated 2,000 have been killed. The latest killings come days before Kashmir's political separatists are due to meet Manmohan Singh, the Indian prime minister, who suggested the murders would not hamper efforts to find peace in the region, divided between India and Pakistan. "People of Kashmir have rejected and rebuffed terrorists repeatedly," he said. India has repeatedly accused Pakistan of backing the militants, even as the two rival nations have talked peace. Mr Singh, however, stopped short of blaming Islamabad for the new attacks.
  2. Iskcon Mandir did NOT protest only some students. Gaurav path? Officials barking up the wrong tree, say residents VALLABH VIDYANAGAR Wednesday, May 03, 2006: 30 trees have been axed to widen the road; they were obstacles on road, says Collector Palak Nandi Ahmedabad, May 2: IT is one of Gujarat’s few townships that can boast of its green cover. But that may soon be a thing of past for Vallabh Vidhyanagar — for seeking to develop a stretch of the road here as ‘gaurav path,’ the official axe is being wielded on trees. It was in August last year that the Gujarat Government decided to develop the road between Iskcon Mandir and University Circle as gaurav path. Since then, the axe has fallen on trees — by February, almost 30 full-grown trees were felled and the branches of another 60 trees ‘‘trimmed’’ — in order to widen the road. ‘‘When we approached Anand Collectorate officials, we were told that they would ensure that no trees were cut. But the promise has not been kept. Further, in the name of beautification, authorities have pruned branches on the side that falls on the road,’’ said Dhaval Patel of Vidyanagar Nature Club. He added that none of the trees were ‘‘in the middle of the road or causing traffic hurdles.’’ Patel alleges that the branches are being cut in such a way that ‘‘there’s minimal chance of them growing again.’’ Volunteers and supporters of the club — a large number of them students — also participated in a rally in December to protest against the axing of trees, but that failed to draw a response. Shishir Vaghela, a Second Year student at BVM Engineering College, said that in two months branches of more than 20 trees have been cut. ‘‘There are a number of colleges in this area and students have to walk in the heat. What’s worse is that the Government talks about increasing the green cover, but goes on a tree-cutting drive,’’ he added. It is estimated that this patch alone had more than 100 trees — most of them copper pod, neem and a few rare ones like red kaishya. The number of standing trees is now down to 70, of which 60 have been ‘‘ruthlessly trimmed.’’ Volunteers are worried that if this continues, Vidynagar will soon lose its title of ‘‘lungs of Anand district.’’ Maintaining that he was not quite aware of the issue, Anand Collector D G Jhalawadia said the decision to cut a few trees was taken as they were obstacles on the road. ‘‘But I am not quite aware about the issue as of date and will look into it,’’ he added.
  3. According Vedic teachings the human form of life is meant to get out of the cycle of repeated birth and death - transmigrating from one material body to another and go back home, back to Godhead. Bhagavad-gita warns us, watch out, it easily happens that this world is not inhabited by human beings but by varna-sankara - living beings who adopt this human body but only pretend to be on the level of human consciousness, but in fact are not. Just like the monkeys in Vrindavan, they steal, estimate the value of their haul and by waving from above at Loi Bazar, trading it with that shopkeeper/fence who gives them the most bananas as reward. Is there a big difference how present world economy functions, how nature's resources like oil are being exploited? Bhagavad-gita says, when religion is destroyed and women are manipulated into lusty mentality and of course kick the already lusty men into even more lusty thinking, varnasankaras, so called human beings take birth and create hellish conditiones all over this planet. Now we find worldwide that the airpollution of the atmosphere is so intense that the sunlight is reduced by 10% causing a chain reaction in all our fragile ecosystems. "Why the Sun seems to be 'dimming' " http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4171591.stm Except two countries on earth, all the currencies belong to a handful of international bankers who charge huge amounts of interest which forces nations, countries, cities into indebtedness without end. International Nepal Solidarity Network http://insn.org/?p=1999 Since the international banking system is controlled from a headquarter, the world's media/newsoutlets seem to function exactly the same way when reporting about the daily news. "War on terror", "liberating" women from being good mothers into filthy thinking and brainwashing men to understand that materialistc values is the only thing that counts. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Sankirtan mission wants to spread the yuga-dharma, the chanting of the Holy Names of Hare Krishna and Hare Rama all over the world, but where are those human beings, with human consciousness to understand the process of chanting? Srila Prabhupada focused on philosophy, beginning with expelling our illusions, by using the tools described in sastra as the hallmarks of the uttama-adhikari -- logic and argument. Present world's elite seem to understand only one thing - stealing from nature and trading at the global world market. Nice kali-yuga hell and animal zoo out there!
  4. That's all really true! We can never know what Krishna's plan is for each one of us. Varahedeva surely will never forget the bliss of chanting Hare Krishna since that's the only way to wake up our sleeping souls and become free from identifying with this material body/false ego. His website is http://bindu.ufo.at/ . I think it would be nice if he gets some encouraging e-mails by the devotees.
  5. ....how to preach to our former TP, Varahadeva das, to again come back to the path of bhkati-yoga? Varahadeva das is something like a real intelligent scientist, presently working with other scientists associated with THE INSTITUTE FOR NEW ENERGY holding seminars and writing books about "Basics&Practice of Free Energy". Here just one example, the development of a magnet motor which moves without external energy supply. "The rotor has stacked magnets half way around the perimeter. The platform has graduated stacked magnets mounted halfway around it's perimeter. How it works: The motor is mounted vertically. The perimeter magnets pull the rotor up hill. When the first magnet on the rotor passes the last perimeter magnet, gravity and the perimeter magnets complete the cycle. In tests this motor would not turn continuously without an external force." "By adding a small coil, the gap can be overcome to make the rotor turn 360 degrees. When this motor was tested, the coil was not used for power collection. There is a good chance a coil in the center of the rotor for power collection might provide enough power to pulse the rotor. This design has been tested and proven but it leaves room for much more testing and magnet configurations. Cheap magnets were used in testing. I recommend low power magnets." In sum that's what Varahadeva das is presently interested in, alternative free energy. But what does sastra say, dont waste this valuable human form of life to improve our material situation. Srila Prabhupada would often quote Canakya Pandit that one moment of time, even if you have so much wealth, still you cannot buy that moment back. When it's gone, it's gone. With both the rising and setting of the sun, another day is lost. One is closer to death, except one who hears the glorification of the all-good Supreme Personality of Godhead. So time is so important. And noone knows how much time we have left. To use whatever time is available in this human form of life to pursue the goal is the real business of life. Sometimes we do not see how important and necessary it is to use every bit of time for Krsna consciousness. As devotees sometimes we take life for granted, yes, I am young. But who knows how much time you have left? But what to say to a former TP like Varahadeva das, who believes of performing important research for humanity and gave up the path of bhakti-yoga? When googling on his material name, Wolfgang Wiedergut, 13.000!!! entries show up!
  6. Madhu Pandit prabhu's successful Akshaya Patra in Bangalore badly needed in Maharashtra. http://www.akshayapatra.org/board.html Starved tribal kids and well-fed Marine Drive
  7. A devotee friend, Gosh Thakur das, just touring through India - Varanasi, Vrindavan, Kathmandu, Mayapur, Jagannatha Puri, e-mailed yesterday, everywhere you go you meet people from Israel. In search for the roots of their spirituality, more than 60.000 Israelis visit every year India, the land of the divine bliss. As Rabbi Daniel Lapin President, Toward Tradition, brings it clearly to the point - what is our worst enemy? Rabbi Daniel Lapin says, our worst enemy is within us, our anarthas , bad qualities that keep us bound up in materialism, not these so called enemies outside of us. Throughout India's history India had never started a war, although a superpower with more than 1 Million soldiers. Or as President Bush said on his last visit in India: India is a land of peace! Rabbi Daniel Lapin:
  8. Hindus who believe in karma and reincarnation surely wouldnt commit suicide. This is rather the Islamic religion which cant handle properly the dualities of the material energy and find solutions rather then kill oneself. MFI harassment: 60 suicide cases reported Ravi Reddy Monday, Apr 17, 2006 30 SHG members end life in Krishna district; real figure could be more than 200 Report says more cases are likely to occur More `unnatural deaths' in places where MFIs distributed more money Family members threatened against reporting death cases to police HYDERABAD: The alleged unethical practices and harassment by micro finance institutions (MFI) have taken a tragic turn with more than 60 Self-Help Group (SHG) members committing suicide. Krishna district alone accounted for more than 30 deaths. Flooded with cases of harassment by MFIs for repayments and after an open revolt by the women thrift group members, the Government officials had begun an in-depth enquiry. The officials were in for a shock when many cases of `unnatural deaths' relating to harassment by the MFI staff began to surface. Preliminary reports received by the Society for Elimination of Rural Poverty from Krishna, West and East Godavari, Guntur and Prakasam districts indicate that more than 60 members had committed suicide in the last few months. However, officials suspect that the number could be more than 200 as the MFIs had threatened the family members against reporting the matter to police saying they would be deprived of insurance. A report by the Chief Executive Officer, SERP, T Vijay Kumar submitted to the Government this month had cautioned the Government that on account of crushing debt burden, a number of suicides and `unnatural deaths' had already taken place. "There is an imminent danger of more suicides occurring," the report observed. Mr. Vijay Kumar told The Hindu over phone from Kolkata on Saturday, where he is deputed as election observer, that many 'unnatural deaths' had taken place where the MFIs had distributed more money. Teams constituted "A report from the Krishna Collector had documented 10 such deaths. Officials also found prima facie evidence in 11 other cases in the same district," he said and added that village-wise teams were being constituted to enquire into deaths. There was need to look into the functioning of these MFIs in all the 14 districts where they had extended loans. He said the Chief Minister, Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy had directed that helplines be opened in the Collectorates. The District Samakhyas of the thrift groups have been asked to counsel the hapless members against taking extreme steps.
  9. In this age of Kali almost any work except direct devotional service for Lord Caitanya's Samkirtan mission is somehow linked with sinful activity. There're many devotees who work as teachers at karmi schools and who have to educate their students to become fit for successfully perfoming fruitive activities (karma). These devotees argue, I'm using the salary in the service of Krishna therefore it is karma-yoga and doesnt create future material bondage. Yesterday a grhastha devotee (his guru fell down) phoned me that he got a well paid job at a betting-agency which sells sport bets, and in that gambling casino they of course also serve alcoholic drinks and people smoke. Till now my understanding was that such kind of work for an aspiring Vaishnava-devotee is not acceptable and tama-guna - too heavy future karmic bondage. Jayananda prabhu (ACBSP) was a taxi driver and Srila Prabhupada accepted Jayananda prabhu's chauffeuring the karmis to their different materialistic destinations and offer all his earnings to the temple. But where actually is the limit? Can a householder Vaishnava devotee argue, the salary is so big, therefore I'm working now in a butcher's shop, but use all that money in Krishna's service? What to tell that above mentioned devotee, any suggestions?
  10. Thats what Jadurani dd wrote when she was told by Srila Prabhupada to paint Lord Vishnu - Vishnu is standing in the Causal Ocean.
  11. Thanks so far, prabhus! Now I just found an old looking dipiction of Lord Sri Garbhodakasayi Vishnu even in more deep water. Prabhupada obviously didnt create something new but adopted from trustworthy source.
  12. What actually is the meaning that Lord Vishnu is standing in the water of the Garbhodaka ocean and not lying on Sesa?
  13. Murder trial - A woman who survived a 2003 Portland attack tells a jury what her husband said before he died Tuesday, April 11, 2006 ANNE SAKER The door slowly opened, and into the bedroom walked Satya Krishna Dasa, covered in blood. Staring at the quaking woman sitting on the bed, he put a finger to his lips for silence. He sat beside her. He put one hand on her shoulder. Then with the other hand, the woman testified Monday, Dasa pulled out a steak knife and slipped the blade between her ribs. Her 2-year-old son, still in pajamas, stood in a corner crying out, "No, Mama! No, Mama!" The woman on the bed, Rebeca Webster, survived that night to pour out her memories to a Multnomah County Circuit Court jury on the first day of Dasa's trial on charges of aggravated murder and attempted aggravated murder. She told a story of two couples bonded in Hare Krishna beliefs and destroyed by infidelity and jealousy. If the seven men and five women convict Dasa, 31, he could face the death penalty. The trial before Circuit Judge Michael McShane is expected to last at least a month. In her opening statement, Deputy District Attorney Stacy Heyworth said that on the night of Dec. 19, 2003, Dasa drove to the Portland home of Yuri Bukshin, 31, once his best friend. Heyworth said Dasa bludgeoned Bukshin with a socket wrench then picked up a chef's knife and stabbed him repeatedly. Mortally wounded, Bukshin crawled to his front door and unlocked it before he died; one photograph showed a bloody handprint on the door's exterior. Webster, 28, the star witness Monday, recounted under Heyworth's questioning that she had met and married Bukshin in 1999; they had a son in 2001. She testified that Bukshin and Dasa, whose given name was Josh Jerome, had long been friends; Dasa looked up to the Russian-born Bukshin. As part of the spiritual journey that is the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, Dasa traveled to India in 2003 to study with a guru. He left his wife, Janet Jerome, in Eugene to rear their four daughters until his return. Webster said that in February 2003, Janet Jerome called Bukshin and asked for help on a weekend project. He agreed. But on his return, Webster said she could tell that something had changed. By May, she knew that Bukshin and Jerome were having an affair, and Webster left Bukshin. She moved to a house in the 5400 block of Northeast 47th Avenue. They tried reconciling, but, "He was already decided that he didn't love me and was moving on," she testified. She moved again; Bukshin stayed in the house. Dasa was enraged to learn of the affair, and his parents sent him to Australia to cool off. He returned to Eugene in December 2003, apparently still angry. Webster testified that on the night of Dec. 19, Bukshin came home after a weeklong business trip. Webster, who had stayed at the Northeast 47th Avenue house to care for their son, decided to spend the night in a separate bedroom. She said Bukshin agreed that she could stay but she had to leave in the morning because Janet Jerome was due to visit. Shortly after midnight Dec. 20, Webster testified that she awakened to the sound of furniture moving. She rose, went into the living room and saw Dasa in the kitchen, standing beside her husband at the sink and holding a Pampered Chef knife high. Blood had soaked Bukshin's white T-shirt. "I said, 'What's going on here?' " Webster recalled. "Yuri was silent. Josh said, 'Get in your son's room now!' And he glared at me." She went into the room where her son slept on a mattress on the floor and found her cell phone. She called 9-1-1 and whispered to the dispatcher. Then she put the phone, still connected, under the bedcovers. Heyworth asked, "Could you hear anything from the kitchen?" "I heard Yuri say, 'No, no, please don't kill me!' " Webster replied. The house fell quiet, and Webster frantically planned an escape. Then Dasa opened the bedroom door and entered, "bloody and breathing heavy. His eyes were all big and glossy. He had sweat and blood on his face." As Dasa shushed her, Webster testified that she believes she told Dasa, "I was on the same side, so to speak. We were both cheated on." "Was that working?" Heyworth asked. "No." Webster testified that Dasa stabbed her under her left breast then at least three times in the chest. Just as he was about to plunge the knife into her heart, Webster said, she grabbed the blade. It snapped from the hilt. The tape of the 9-1-1 call picked up Webster's screams and her son's wails. Webster said Dasa grabbed a pillow and put it over her face. But help had arrived: "As he had the pillow on me, I heard the Portland police," Webster said. The trial resumes today.

  14. Krishna surely wants that the devotees are getting more influence and spread the Hare Krishna Maha-mantra. What Dr. Henry Kissinger proposes below in his memorandum to the NSC that ‘depopulation should be the highest priority of U.S. foreign policy towards the Third World, sounds rather questionable. Depleted Uranium a tool to depopulate the world by Sepp Hasslberger Sunday, Apr. 09, 2006 at 1:32 PM War, Epidemics, Depopulation - Rough Times Ahead Having read this article of Justin Raimondo yesterday, I caught a glimpse of a vision of destruction. Something that might await us just around the bend, like starting in less than two-weeks' time, when Iran is scheduled to open their new oil bourse where black gold will be traded in Euro, not in Dollars. If you consider the dangers of man made pandemics, such as AIDS and the successor to last year's SARS, the Bird Flu, the scourge of depleted uranium or even just of the normal application of pharmaceutical medicine, which has become one of the major causes of death, it does not take a vivid imagination to see destruction awaiting a significant part of the planet's population... ... unless, of course, we should manage to wake up in time and take back control from those who would lead us to the brink of extinction to forward their policy objective of a marked reduction in population numbers. Think about it. Population Reduction NEWS BRIEF: "UC Regents lose control of nuclear weapons program: Five admirals, Carlyle Group and Rand takeover", SF Bay View, Part 6, by Leuren Moret, 11/10/2004 "Research on population control, preventing future births, is now being carried out secretly by biotech companies ... During a presentation about his case, Chapela revealed that a spermicidal corn developed by a U.S. company is now being tested in Mexico. Males who unknowingly eat the corn produce non-viable sperm and are unable to reproduce. Depopulation, also known as eugenics ... was proposed under the Nazis during World War II. It is the deliberate killing off of large segments of living populations and was proposed for Third World countries under President Carter’s administration by the National Security Council’s Ad Hoc Group on Population Policy..." While it is true that depopulation was proposed for Third World countries under Carter's administration, the original concept was proposed several years earlier, by Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State under President Gerald Ford. Let us return to this article, above: "National Security Memo 200, dated April 24, 1974, and titled “Implications of world wide population growth for U.S. security & overseas interests,” says: “Dr. Henry Kissinger proposed in his memorandum to the NSC that ‘depopulation should be the highest priority of U.S. foreign policy towards the Third World.’ He quoted reasons of national security, and because '(t)he U.S. economy will require large and increasing amounts of minerals from abroad, especially from less-developed countries ... Wherever a lessening of population can increase the prospects for such stability, population policy becomes relevant to resources, supplies and to the economic interests of U.S.' ..." "Depopulation policy became the top priority under the NSC agenda, Club of Rome and U.S. policymakers like Gen. Alexander Haig, Cyrus Vance, Ed Muskie and Kissinger ... the United States shared the view of former World Bank President Robert McNamara that the 'population crisis' is a greater threat to U.S. national security interests than 'nuclear annihilation'. In 1975, Henry Kissinger established a policy-planning group in the U.S. State Department’s Office of Population Affairs. The depopulation 'GLOBAL 2000' document for President Jimmy Carter was prepared. "It is no surprise that this policy was established under President Carter with help from Kissinger and Brzezinski – all with ties to David Rockefeller. The Bush family, the Harriman family - the Wall Street business partners of Bush in financing Hitler - and the Rockefeller family are the elite of the American eugenics movement. Even Prince Philip of Britain, a member of the Bilderberg Group, is in favor of depopulation ... "If I were reincarnated I would wish to be returned to earth as a killer virus to lower human population levels" "Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has been proposing, funding and building Bio-Weapons Level 3 and Level 4 labs at many places around the U.S. – even on university campuses and in densely populated urban locations. In a Bio-Weapons Level 4 facility, a single bacteria or virus is lethal. Bio-Weapons Level 4 is the highest level legally allowed in the continental U.S." Incredibly, this article reveals that an aggressive attack on the populations of Third World Countries originated through Henry Kissinger in April, 1974 (still Secretary of State under President Ford), through President Jimmy Carter, and ending at Defense Secretary Rumsfeld of the Bush Administration. Thus, you can say that depopulation of Third World Countries has been a major part of American foreign policy for the past 30 years and is continuing today; further, you can say that this policy is completely bi-partisan, as it was supported strongly by both Democrats and Republicans through numerous administrations. We have long stated that the Illuminati plans a 66% decrease in the population of the world. New Age author, Bill Cooper, writes about the severe depopulation plans in his book, "Behold A Pale Horse", and every former Satanist with whom I have worked since 1991 has stated that the Illuminati plans this degree of death. Once we discovered the Pentagon's New Map which is currently guiding our invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan, The Solomon Islands, and Indonesia's Aceh Province, we realized that Kissinger's depopulation plan probably is aimed at all "Non-Integrating" countries of the world, and is continuing today. This SF Bay View article finishes by speaking of one of the greatest depopulation weapons ever deployed -- Depleted Uranium munitions. "Two excellent examples of existing U.S. depopulation policy are, first, the long-term impact on the civilian population from Agent Orange in Vietnam ... The second is the permanent contamination of the Middle East and Central Asia with depleted uranium, which ... will destroy the genetic future of the populations living in those regions ... ." (http://www.sfbayview.com/110304/ucregents110304.shtml) As you read of our fierce battles in Iraq, remember that a very large percentage of the munitions we are exploding is Depleted Uranium. Thus, we are daily spreading more D.U. in Iraq, adding to the nearly 3,000 tons we have already expended. This SF Bay View article does not mention another major weapon being used to achieve depopulation -- the AIDS Virus. Let us quickly review this depopulation subject by turning to New Age author, Bill Cooper, in his monumentally important book, "Behold A Pale Horse": "To reduce population quickly ... you have to pull all males into the fighting and kill significant numbers of fertile, child-bearing age females." [Page 171] This revelation that the Illuminati is carrying out a deliberate campaign to reduce populations in Third World Countries brings to mind a terrifying British report last week, stating that over 100,000 Iraqi civilians have been killed so far, before we attacked Fallujah. Listen: NEWS BRIEF: "Where is the world's shame and rage?: Civilian casualties in Iraq", By Scott Ritter, senior UN weapons inspector in Iraq between 1991 and 1998, reported in Dawn International, 02 November 2004, http://www.dawn.com/2004/11/02/int14.htm "The full scale of the human cost already paid for the war on Iraq is only now becoming clear. Last week's estimate by (British Lancet Medical Journal) investigators, using credible methodology, that more than 100,000 Iraqi civilians - most of them women and children - have died since the US-led invasion, is a profound moral indictment of our countries ... Civilian deaths have always been a tragic reality of modern war. But the conflict in Iraq was supposed to be different - US and British forces were dispatched to liberate the Iraqi people ... Reading accounts of the US-led invasion, one is struck by the constant, almost casual, reference to civilian deaths ... The fact that most bombing missions in Iraq today are pre-planned, with targets allegedly carefully vetted, further indicts those who wage this war in the name of freedom. If these targets are so precise, then those selecting them cannot escape the fact that they are deliberately targeting innocent civilians at the same time as they seek to destroy their intended foe ... We invaded Iraq to free Iraqis from a dictator who, by some accounts, oversaw the killing of about 300,000 of his subjects - although no one has been able to verify more than a small fraction of the figure. If it is correct, it took Saddam decades to reach such a horrific statistic. The US and UK have, it seems, reached a third of that total in just 18 months." The bottom line of this revelation is that the Illuminati is using many weapons right now to decrease the population, from AIDS to Depleted Uranium, to biotech weapons, to massive conventional warfare against civilian populations EDGE NEWS blog.hasslberger.com/2006/03/war_epidemics_depopulation_rou.html
  15. University Professor Pianka leaves people speachless/defeated just by presenting numbers - numbers which "explain" mathematical how this planet is being systematically destroyed by human overpopulation. Guess he never heard the vedic explanation about the purpose of life..
  16. The drilling of teeth seems to be an ongoing madness since stone age. As soon a tooth is drilled, the tooth is destroyed, dentists know that very well. If everything developped rapidely in the past hundreds of years - like all the departements of modern technology, treatment of teeth didnt - not one inch. They might drill with laser and make all kind of fancy but unhealthy x-rays - still peoples teeth are destroyed like blown up buildings after a war. Now they clone sheeps and rats. Why this idiots cant find the switch which lets grow a new tooth as soon there's one finished? Sharks have that upgraded operating system, one tooth finished, the next is already waiting. Probably they have it already invented but pulled out their pocket calculators, a huge global business of drilling billions of teeth destroyed! Nice agents of kali!
  17. Three yogis are performing a meditative vigil in a cave high in the Himalayas. One day there is a sound outside of the cave. Six months later one of the yogis says, “that was a tiger.”The cave is silent once again. About a year later, another yogi says, “that wasn’t a tiger it was a lion.” Again the cave falls silent. About two years later the third yogi says, “If you two don’t stop arguing I’m leaving.”
  18. Sivananda prabhu went to Berlin and opened a temple, he went to Heidelberg and opened a temple - and wherever he went the temples immediately were filled up with devotees. Madan-mohan-mohini dasi became his wife and they both started to please Srila Prabhupada even more - by teaching everybody how to distribute Prabhupada's books. Always wondered where they went after having successfully started Srila Prabhupada's movement in the German speaking countries?

Officials are questioning the parish's right to use the land, while the church's registration application has been denied. </TD></TR><TR><TD> </TD></TR><TR><TD>Jailed Hare Krishna devotee Cheper Annaniyazova was finally transferred from the women's prison in the capital Ashgabad [Ashgabat] to the women's labour camp in Dashoguz [Dashhowuz] on 23 January, Forum 18 News Service has learned. The transfer – which had long been expected - occurred within days of her failed bid to have her seven-year prison sentence overturned at an appeal hearing at the Ashgabad city court in mid-January. Her state of health and conditions in the labour camp remain unknown. The labour camp in Dashoguz in northern Turkmenistan close to the border with Uzbekistan is the only one for women in the country. Its address is: Dashoguz, ulica Ilyalinskaya, Zhenskaya Koloniya DZ-K/8. The exile Turkmenistan Helsinki Foundation reported last December that the camp has six barracks housing prisoners (though many have to sleep in the open air), as well as a work area with a brick factory, sewing and wool workshops and a bakery. It noted that bribery is rampant as a way for prisoners to escape the harshest work. "Those that don't pay have to carry out the heaviest work in the industrial zone," the group reported. It said the most hazardous work is cleaning wool. Even acquiring a decent place to sleep requires bribes. The group said the camp also has a closed section with about 400 high-profile prisoners, including former top officials who have fallen from favour. It remains unknown in which part of the camp Annaniyazova is housed. Annaniyazova, who was born in 1968 and was one of the first people in Turkmenistan to become a Hare Krishna devotee, was accused under three charges, two of which related to illegally crossing the border three years ago when she went to Kazakhstan to live at the Hare Krishna temple in Almaty. The third accusation was, sources told Forum 18, not made public at the trial in November 2005 and the extra sentence imposed in the wake of the accusation was likewise not made public, though the sentence she received exceeds the maximum penalty possible under the known accusations. It is thought within Turkmenistan that the heavy sentence was imposed at the behest of the MSS (Ministry of State Security) secret police, in order to intimidate the Hare Krishna community. Despite a reluctance by the court to give out its verdict in writing as it is supposed to do (courts in Turkmenistan rarely give out written verdicts, especially in sensitive cases), Annaniyazova was able to challenge the verdict on appeal, but this was unsuccessful (see F18News 10 February 2006 http://www.forum18.org/Archive.php?article_id=725). After former chief mufti Nasrullah ibn Ibadullah was sentenced to 22 years' imprisonment in March 2004 at a closed trial in Ashgabad, the Turkmen government refused repeated international requests to make the verdict public (see F18News 8 March 2004 http://www.forum18.org/Archive.php?article_id=271). Meanwhile, the exile Turkmen Initiative for Human Rights reported in March that the Russian Orthodox Church has been unable to complete its new church under construction in Dashoguz. The group said the foundation and walls are only partly built and work has been stopped for more than a year. The group added that the parish previously had registration with the Adalat (Fairness or Justice) Ministry, but this was revoked in the wake of the 2003 new religion law and the parish has been unable to regain it. The authorities question the parish's right to use the land, but have not obstructed worship in a portakabin, the only Orthodox place of worship in northern Turkmenistan. The second Russian Orthodox church in the town of Turkmenabad (formerly Charjou) finally gained state registration in early January, six years after it reopened for worship and applied for registration (see F18News 10 February 2006 http://www.forum18.org/Archive.php?article_id=725).

  20. Hindus actually dont convert others to become members of the Hindu community. Hindus generally argue, you're only a Hindu when you're born into a Hindu family. So in sum Hindus consider Hinduism as a bodily designation and not as spiritual quality of the soul. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was in fact the only One who successfully converted Muslims away from their believe. However, He didnt convert the Muslims to become Hindus, but He converted the Muslims to become servants of Lord Sri Krishna. Since serving the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna is the eternal function of our souls it is above bodily designations like - Christian, Moslem, American, Buddhist, Hindu or Judaism. But unfortunately Hindus arent interested to understand who is Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu and they arent interested to adopt Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's special method to successfully convert Muslims to become Krishna bhaktas. Devotees of Lord Krishna are totally above the platform of bodily designations and actually benefitting society by distributing pure konwledge about our eternal relationship of Lord Sri Krishna, and when all the people become situated in pure ever-increasing love and spiritual happiness all the problems in society will be solved. As long we remain on the platform of bodily designation the fighting among members of different groups will go on. Since Vaishnavism is part of India's cultural tradition Hindus are well advised to become situated in the teachings of the great Vaishnava acarayas and activate the soul to become fixed in the original position of serving Sri Krishna in total transcendental happiness and just by associating with such pure devotees of Lord Krishna, Muslim will automatically give up this Islam which keeps one's soul cut off from actual spiritual bliss. This is the secret, people always go there where they find actual joy. Doesnt matter what they were before. Therefore Srila Prabhupada attracted thousands and thousands of Westerners to bhakti-yoga. Not because of the teachings, not because of presenting something new. All the people who met Srila Prabhupada felt that he is situated in the original happiness of the soul and they also wanted to attain that state. Prabhupada converted many Muslims, Africans, Europeans, Chinese, Australians, all those people started to follow the path of bhakti because they wanted to attain what Prabhupada showed them by his own example, real spiritual joy within the soul. Therefore, whenever it is reported that Muslims are proliferating, like it was recently reported in France, like rats, the preaching of pure devotional service to Lord Sri Krishna isnt realy in a healthy condition. More Hindus should get qualified as strong preachers of sanatana-dharma. Just like the Indian military, India has the biggest military in the world, over 1 Million soldiers. So, if India could qualify to actually train up 1 Million pure Vaishnavas of Lord Sri Krishna, Millions of Muslims immediately would give up Islam forever, like Sanatana Goswami or Rupa Goswami, very easily. First they were high appointees of the Muslim government, King, but when they met Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu they immediately gave up their Muslim identity.

  22. http://www.mexica-movement.org/granmarcha.htm The Great Los Angeles March Against Racism: An Indigenous Perspective Whose land? Whose labels? Almost all media reporting on The Great March of Los Angeles chose to focus on economic-centric rhetoric and sound bites that reflected the Marchers as The Outsiders of this land. The media repeated slogans and shibboeleths like "America was built on immigration" and "Immigrants deserve repsect." However, a visual scan of the marchers clearly revealed that Mexicans and Central Americans are not a people who came via Ellis Island, nor through the The Port of San Francisco. These marchers looked very much like the "Indians" one sees in a history book on pre-European peoples of this continent. Srila Prabhupada has the answer, the land belongs to Krishna! http://www.prabhupadavani.org/Gita/web/text/040.html Prabhupada: So when we become very serious in a dangerous position, as if we are lost, but Krsna smiles. You see? Sometimes we think... This is called illusion. The same example, just a man in dreaming, crying, "There is tiger, there is tiger. It is eating me," and the man who is awakened, he smiles, "Where is the tiger?" (chuckles) "Where is the tiger?" And this man is crying, "Tiger, tiger, tiger." Similarly, when we are very much perplexed... Just like the politicians, they are sometimes perplexed in political situation and claiming, "This is my land, my country," and other party also claiming, "It is my land, my country," and they are fighting very gravely. Krsna smiles. "What these nonsense are claiming ‘my country, my land'? It is My land, and they are claiming ‘my land' and fighting." Actually, the land belongs to Krsna, but these people, under illusion, claiming, "It is my land, it is my country," forgetting how long he shall belong to this country or this nation. That is called illusion.
  23. Iskcon Bangalore=Iskcon? ARUN IYER TIMES NEWS NETWORK WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 2006 12:42:55 AM http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1468257.cms BANGALORE: Having successfully pioneered the organic farming movement in Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala, the Eco-Agri Research Foundation of ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness) is looking at moving up the value chain. It has initiated work on setting up a food-processing facility at Mahadevpura near Srirangapatna where its model ’organic farming’ farm is located. “The cost of setting up and operating the facility could be around Rs 5 crore to Rs 6 crore. Besides our own contribution, we are looking at the possibility of raising resources from financial institutions/banks,” sources told ET. The foundation was able to attract about 50-100 farmers every month to grow the organic way, sources added. Besides running the farm, the foundation has around 500 farmer members, who practice organic farming. The total annual output produced by these members is believed to be around 100 tonne, with spices accounting for about 55% to 60% of the produce. These 500 farmers are spread through out Karnataka and neighbouring Kerala and produce a wide range of agri-products like spices and foodgrains. Organic chilli is grown in places like Raichur and Chitradurga while farmers in northern Kerala grow spices like ginger and pineapple. Once the agri-processing facility is operational, the foundation believes that it can secure a higher price for the produce. Typically, organic farm products cost five or six times more compared to the inorganic products. The foundation was also looking at the possibility of using the internet for promoting organic farming in India. “There has to be a process of educating and providing information. With access to quick and easy logistics, it would not be difficult to use the net for selling organic produce,” sources added. The foundation, which played a major role in promoting Indian vanilla in the global markets, continues to actively promote this crop although international prices have declined. It is reported to have handled over 300 tonne of green beans.
  24. Wherever big thinking is required, Indians seem to have the better brains - why not also for establishing Lord Krishna's instructions worldwide?
