Benefit of practicing tolerance and forgiveness. When someone pierces you with the arrow of sharp words,a wise person should tolerate them,even if he feels deeply wounded, knowing that, if he does so, then he will take away all of his tormentor’s merit.

How to know if one is making genuine spiritual advancement? https://www.dharmavira.com/how-to-know-if-one-is-making-genuine-spiritual-advancement/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-know-if-one-is-making-genuine-spiritual-advancement Sun, 20 Jun 2021 07:09:50 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=5978

How to know if one is making genuine spiritual advancement. It is not a rocket science. When one only has desire to serve Guru and Gauranga and has given up all attachment to family members including so called mother, father, sisters, brothers , and children etc. for the service of Sri Krishna then we are advancing spiritually otherwise we are just cheating ourselves. Why? We are eternal servants or Sri Krishna and not Maya the illusory energy. How to do this. Very simple always think of Lord Sri Krishna and pray to him in this way. O my Lord, there is no limit to the unwanted orders of lusty desires. Although I have rendered these desires so much service, they have not shown any mercy to me. I have not been ashamed to serve them, nor I desired to even give them up. O my Lord, O head of the yadu dynasty, recently, however, my intelligence has been awakened, and now I am giving them up. Due to transcendental intelligence I now refuse to obey the unwanted orders of these desires, and I have come to you to surrender myself at your fearless lotus feet. Kindly engage in your service and save me.

Don’t mistake a sādhaka as a devotee… https://www.dharmavira.com/dont-mistake-a-sadhaka-as-a-devotee/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=dont-mistake-a-sadhaka-as-a-devotee Thu, 20 May 2021 06:25:45 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=5983

Whenever we speak of devotee in our scriptures it refers to pure devotee, a self realized soul. A self realized soul is in constant contact with Sri Krishna every second. Don’t mistake a sādhaka for a devotee.

Mahāprabhu asked all sādhakas to chant always… https://www.dharmavira.com/mahaprabhu-asked-all-sadhakas-to-chant-always/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=mahaprabhu-asked-all-sadhakas-to-chant-always Sat, 20 Mar 2021 04:41:10 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=5988

Why Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu  asked all sādhakas to chant always the name of Sri Krishna?. He knew that it would not be possible to chant the holy names free of offenses. Therefore if we chant continuously, we wont have chance to make offences.

Ekādaśī fasting… https://www.dharmavira.com/ekadasi-fasting/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=ekadasi-fasting Sat, 20 Feb 2021 04:33:32 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=5985

When karmīs observe ekādaśī, those who follow the path of karma, it is to eradicate their sins but when a devotee observes ekādaśī , it is to strengthen their love for the divine couple. This is the difference.

One who chants the Holy names without avoiding the ten offences, is a fool who throws away his good fortune.

Please regularly chant Hare Krishna, read Srimad-Bhagavatam, Bhagavad-gita As It Is, Teachings of Lord Chaitanya, and always read and talk about Krishna between yourselves, and always remember that this life is but a flash only. We have to seek after our eternal life in Krishna Consciousness and be transferred to the spiritual world in the association of Krishna.

“Therefore we say that if people, not all, if some percentage of the whole population of the world become Kṛṣṇa conscious, then all the problems of the world will be solved. We don’t expect that cent percent people will be Kṛṣṇa conscious, but simply a few percent, say five per cent. If the people of the whole population, they become Kṛṣṇa conscious, then the face of the world will change…” – Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.2.20, Vṛndāvana, October 31, 1972

Be attentive while chanting… https://www.dharmavira.com/be-attentive-while-chanting/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=be-attentive-while-chanting Wed, 20 Jan 2021 03:05:39 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=5998

 When we chant Harinām we must be careful not to commit the ten offenses and be attentive while chanting. We should try not to miss hearing every holy name we chant. You will become perfect with practice. We must avoid all of them by constantly chant Harinām. We should not desire respect but ready to give everyone according to their positions respect. Humility and tolerance is the key to spiritual success.

They constantly forget how to get eternal happiness… https://www.dharmavira.com/they-constantly-forget-how-to-get-eternal-happiness/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=they-constantly-forget-how-to-get-eternal-happiness Thu, 31 Dec 2020 07:15:47 +0000 https://www.dharmavira.com/?p=4841

The biggest problem with all conditioned souls is that they constantly forget how to get eternal happiness due to the influence of the material energies. You can only get eternal happiness when you satisfy the senses of Sri Krishna. How do you do that? Only by chanting Harinama always. How to do that? You have to train yourself then chanting Harinama will happened constantly in the mind and tongue and your lips will constantly vibrate with the holy names. You should chant Harinama with great love then you will be the happiest person.
