Within the ocean of material existence, there is only one shelter: Aradhana

   Baba so nicely describes the dangers and how to get out.

It seems Baba will be giving classes on the Holy Name for the next year.

The Holy Name is the backdrop to all creation...as soon as we understand this foundation principle then our chanting can begin to take us to that true realm of eternal seva.

    True Spiritual Insurance Policy: Do Not Offend Krsna's Devotees

              Real knowledge is proportionate to real surrender.

The subject here is how to make our samskaras sattvic or on the platform of sattva-guna. In the Srimad Bhagavatam, 11th canto, 13th chapter, Lord Sri Krsna has told how it can be done. There are ten things that are sattvic or filled with sattva-guna. In the Gita, Lord Krsna has said that gradually a person can overcome these worldly desires. If somebody falls down from the spiritual platform, then we should not respond, “Oh how is it possible that he has fallen down in his spiritual life?” In reality, since time immemorial, we have been consumed by these material identifications. In the Ramayana, it is also mentioned what people will be like in the Kali-yuga. It is said that such degraded persons will manifest only in Kali-yuga, not in Dvapara, Satya, or Treta. In the Bhagavatam also, there is the description of such low class personalities.
