Tuning into our inner calling is where the real journey begins, otherwise we may well be careering down a no-through road.

One may ask why take any precaution at all since we are devotees and Krishna protects His devotees.

Many times, we commit sins because of ignorance. But that is not an excuse. The laws of nature are very cruel. Whether we do things knowingly or unknowingly we have to face the consequences.

"Can it be a good thing, this darkness? / A kind of light that shows me things / I like to hide from in broad daylight"

"I am no stranger to vaccines, or to put it bluntly: I am alive today because I got vaccinated."

While helping the deprived, we need to consider why they are deprived.

This is the quality of the Supreme Lord, our eternal father. He is magnanimous. He does not hate anyone. He is the well-wishing friend of all. 

Tradition in Gaudiya-vaisnavism is not a process of cutting-and-pasting external practices from the past. 

“You should remember that you may die today—or tomorrow, or before you turn 66, or in twenty years. / It matters not, if you live the life of the soul."
