The youth in Asia should chant Hare Krsna.

More sour grapes. Change your diet. It's just boring.

Sri Krsna, Lord Balarama, Lord Nrsimhadeva, Lord Kurma, Srila Vyasadeva, Srimati Radharani, so many expansions and incarnations who expand from the primal Lord Govinda comprise the one God, Sri Krsna. With Them are the unlimited internal and external energies of Krsna, the spiritual worlds and the most intimate Goloka. Further parts of God's unlimited nature are His clothes, His flute, helmets, earrings and so on. Such is the unfathomable nature of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, unlimited in pastimes and qualities, yet still one Supreme Entity. To say God is Krsna is of course true, but He is so much more - and that is all Him. I think that Srila Prabhupada may have adopted the expression "Supreme Personality of Godhead" to emphasize to outsiders that the Vedas are monotheistic, since most of the uneducated world still tells each other lies about the Hindus and their millions of Gods and sacred cows. http://vedabase.net/bs/5/1/en http://vedabase.net/sb/1/3/28/en .

Not that quantity is the all in all, but the BBC website showed that before the recent number of 655,000 other Iraqi sources gave numbers of 100,000 and 150,000. The horrendous number seems suspect. Hopefully.

Anon, You are talking about my step-father. They do however set a good negative example. There are many places I haven't been, fortunately, because of his fine negative example. That ain't for me, man, I said. I guess we have to try to be like the swan who separates the good from the bad. We can recognize the spirit soul, part and parcel of Krsna, and as such every creature is glorious. We can recognize the service they offer us in the thankless task of raising, feeding kids. We can understand that somehow this jiva has been given our association by Sri Krsna. There must be some good in there somewhere waiting to be ignited. A command performance, but I'm afraid I wasn't very good in a similar situation. I turned my back and never looked back. He died and I thought nothing of it - a non-event. Still, twenty years later, a non-event. gHari

http://vedabase.net/sb/6/1/40/en "The transcendental words of the Vedas emanated from the mouth of the Supreme Personality of Godhead." http://vedabase.net/nbs/30/en "Elsewhere it is stated that the Vedas are the "breathing of Narayana." The Vedic scriptures are sometimes manifest and sometimes not, but they exist eternally."

Why are we tested, if Krsna knows the result? Two thoughts come to mind about this. The first is this. We can consider the conditioning laws of karma to be like a grinder. We put a piece of rusty metal through the grinder, and it files the rough pieces of rust off. We put the metal through again, and it files some finer pieces of rust off. We continue doing this until the metal is absolutely smooth, and is no longer touched by the grinder as it passes through the mechanism. So when life tests (passing through the grinder) no longer generate karmic reactions (filing rust), the jiva is polished, finished. However, if it is not yet perfect, then the karmic grinding process of the modes of nature will again grind away the unwanted bits. The second idea is that when one reads a book, they will not read the last few pages first; otherwise that will spoil the enjoyment. Sri Krsna derives great pleasure from our love, so His purposely disregarding the future in order to enjoy our relationship in the present would not be inconceivable. In the Sri Caitanya-caritamrita it is written that Krsna knows deep inside that Srimati Radharani is really a part of Him, yet He is so fascinated by Her that He cannot break away to even consider the fact. Thus They remain separate forever, even though One.

The Audarya pundits pondered this question at length a few years back in this clickable thread.

They celebrate among others, the appearance day of Srimati Radharani and of Lord Krishna as They advented in the last yuga, usually at the end of August or early September.

Why would Srila Prabhupada mention that a disciple should not accept initiates when his master is still present on the planet? This is only one of many considerations that renders the ritvik conclusion meaningless, unintelligent, faulty logic - not to mention: brazenly offensive. Like the archaeologists who study a few bones from here and there, we assume that our few recorded conversations comprise the full glory that flowed from the lips of Prabhupada. In our arrogance we have become the Darwins of schism. It's over. Move on.

Krishna is attainable when ambition (lobha) gets so intense that it totally <B>eclipses</b> our hearts and minds; when we realize we can never know Him.

I remember the Centennial bathing of Srila Prabhupada's murti in Toronto. Many devotees had containers of water from 1008 Indian pilgrimage sites. At the end I found myself impelled to immerse my japa beads in the water that had poured over Prabhupada. The air was so thick that day, that I knew something wonderful was happening. After my first beads broke (after a chanting offense while driving - totalled the car at the same instant - chuckle), I have used plastic line instead which never breaks.

Yes, finding fault with fault-finding does itself seem a fault. Kettle - black, chicken and the egg, 'the purpose of life is to search for the purpose of life', yet another paradox in words, this time proving the rule.

But fault-finding is so great for building ego. In the karmi world, it is the chief activity of losers, their only way to feign superiority thus forgetting their own mediocrity.
