Airport Critic’s Friend Gets Reborn

By mahat • Nov 8th, 2008

As I was speaking to someone in the airport, a man came up to me who was so nasty — cussing and criticizing — that the person I was speaking to left. Then the nasty man got even worse. He was so loud that everyone in the airport lobby, whether at the ticket counter, the [...]



Pertaining To the Upcoming Presidential Elections in USA

By mahat • Oct 31st, 2008

A king or governmental official should be so well qualified that he acts as a father, maintainer and protector of the citizens because of affection and love.

You Must Read

By mahat • Oct 26th, 2008

Do you remember, any one of you, this verse from the Bhagavad-gita? Eh? But you don’t read. So I am writing all these books simply for selling, not for reading. This is not good. And if somebody asks you, ‘You are so much eager to sell your books. Do you read your books?’ Then what [...]

Srila Prabhupada’s Mercy On Mad Mick

By mahat • Oct 9th, 2008

A few years ago, in a small village in County Roscommon, one of the most rural parts of Ireland, there lived a man by the name of Michael Henmore. He never married and at an early life became a hermit. He had few possessions except a cow, a horse and cart, and a small house that time had forgot. He lived without running water or electricity. Every few days he would journey to the nearest village to draw water from the well there.



The Attitude of All Preachers

By mahat • Sep 16th, 2008

From the introduction to the Nectar of Devotion:
“The author of Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu, Srila Rupa Gosvami, very humbly submits that he is just trying to spread Krsna consciousness all over the world, although he humbly thinks himself unfit for this work. That should be the attitude of all preachers of the Krsna consciousness movement, following in the [...]



The Future of Food

By mahat • Sep 16th, 2008

This video showes just one drop out of the whole ocean of nastinesss that is going on in the world today and it gives us a good insight into the nature of materialism. Once people forget about God, their decadance has begun and it is just a matter of time for the degradation to become a standard and pain become unavoidable. We should all feel inspired to increase our endeavors to propagate the beautiful principles and lifestyle of Krishna consciousness. It would be for everyone’s eternalbenefit.
