Krishna can empower us if we simply have faith in his power and live in such a way that Krishna is pleased by our sincerity. When Krishna is pleased with us then only is our life successful.

Pleasing Krishna With Our Sincerity

Spoiled means ruined. When a child is accustomed to just getting so many things so easy and having so many conveniences and so many luxuries, and so many every things, the child becomes spoiled, because he becomes so attached and so addicted to having his way or her way, when the child grows up a little, the mother and father are not going to be there to give him everything he or she wants, and when he doesn’t get it, he is going to be completely miserable, frustrated and in anxiety and never be happy in life.

Goloknath - Shivaratri At Rajapur - 19.3.23

Srila Prabhupada explains, this is how important Krishna wants us to understand the gravity of vaishnava aparadha; that even, what to speak if you are a devotee.

Gravity of Vaishnava Aparath

Prabhupada says, “Every part that she saw of his body became as hard as steel became like iron. It was undefeatable, undeniable, invincible”

Sri Ramachandra Kripalu - Revati + Kairava Buchwald

Srila Prabhupada used to tell us that Bala means strength, spiritual strength, not physical strength and Rama means one who takes pleasure. So, we should pray to Lord Balarama to give us the strength to overcome the obstacles, the impediments on the spiritual path and to carry out our service to the Vaishnavas, to the guru and to Sri Sri Radha and Krishna.

New York Rathayatra 2019 - Hari Bhakti Dey

Radhanath Swami is a Vaishnava sanyassi (a monk in a Krishna-bhakti lineage) and teacher of the devotional path of Bhakti-yoga. He is author of The Journey Home, a memoir of his search for spiritual truth. His teachings draw from the sacred texts of India such as The Bhagavad-gita, Srimad Bhagavatam, and Ramayana, and aim to reveal the practical application of the sacred traditions, while focusing on the shared essence which unites apparently disparate religious or spiritual paths.
Born Richard Slavin, on December 7, 1950, in his teens he came to confront a deep sense of alienation from suburban Chicago life and the civil injustices of mid-century America. At the age of nineteen, while on a summer trip to Europe, his internal struggles culminated in a commitment to search for God wherever it might lead him. Meditating on the Isle of Crete, he felt a supernatural calling and the next morning set off alone to find spiritual India. The Journey Home documents his odyssey as a penniless hitch-hiker though Greece, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and finally India. There he lived as a wandering ascetic, first amongst the forest dwelling Himalayan yogis and later amongst a wide variety of gurus and spiritual practitioners throughout India and Nepal. Ultimately, he was led to the holy town of Vrindavan, where he found his path amongst the Bhakti-yogis.
In Vrindavan he found the teacher he was searching for in A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada (1896-1977) the founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), and representative of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, (the Krishna-bhakti tradition stemming from the 16th century mystic avatar Sri Chaitanya). In choosing Bhaktivedanta Swami, as his guru, Radhanath Swami felt compelled to shear his matted locks and reenter Western society with a mission to share the sacred wisdom he had received. This return exemplifies the form of devotional yoga which is at the heart of Radhanath Swami’s teachings, a spiritual practice expressed as tangible action meant to bring about personal fulfillment and benefit the world.
At the the age of 31 he took the monastic vows of a Vaishnava sanyassin and became known as Radhanath Swami.
Today Radhanath Swami travels regularly throughout India, Europe and North America, sharing the teachings of Bhakti-yoga. He resides much of the year at the Radha Gopinath Ashram in Chowpatty, Mumbai. For the past twenty-five years he has guided the community’s development and has directed a number of acclaimed social action projects including Midday Meals, which daily serves more than 260,000 plates of sanctified vegetarian food to the children of the slums of Mumbai. He has also worked to establish missionary hospitals and eye camps, eco-friendly farms, schools and ashrams, an orphanage, and a number of emergency relief programs throughout India.
