Posted: 3 weeks 4 days agoTwo weeks ago I finally worked on a project I wanted to tackle for the last three years. Because there are far more men’s prisons than women’s prisons, for the last thirty-five years or so, the majority of books have been sent to men’s prisons and, consequently, most inmates who write us are male. I have been desiring to give more women the gift of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Having a skeleton crew, I never found the time or help necessary for this major undertaking.

Posted: 22 weeks 4 days agoHare Krishna! I offer my respectful obeisance unto the lotus feet of His Divine Grace A.C.

Posted: 1 year 4 weeks ago- When I got the Covid19 I felt physically terrible with severe joint pains, chest pain and uncontrollable shivering. Yet, I was so at peace, and not only did I manage to chant my twenty rounds every day but even during the worst I spent all my waking time chanting the maha mantra, grateful for such suffering and the focus it gives to what matters and all the mercy Krsna so kindly bestowed. I was thinking back to the “old” me years ago and how much I have progressed. Observing others around me...0 Comment(s)
