Reflection: What I felt really nice about is something that you spoke about—content. And I feel that I can put better content in myself, and therefore impact my consciousness better, by having better association. HG Vaisesika Dasa: You made my whole day, because that's the simple point. You may think that was too sim
We are fortunate to have the opportunity to discipline our minds—have this opportunity early in the morning to focus on one thing that's all-important, leaving beside everything else with no other consideration whatsoever. This is a luxury, because most people are harassed 24 hours a day by various desires, thoughts,

Our good friend Dr. Sloman points that out in his book, which is called The Knowledge Illusion. We think we're independent, but we are integrated into everybody else and everything he
Take japa as the mainstay of our practice of devotional service, and take time to settle into it. There is maybe a warm-up period where it takes some time to get momentum, to get the mind back on track after sleeping. Sometimes the mind is elsewhere, or we may have things that are troubling us. We have deadlines. We ha
Have you ever been invited over for dinner? Let's just say you go over to the house and they invite you, and it's a nice invitation. You're looking forward to the night; you actually get a little dressed up, and then they invite you to the sitting room, and they bring a few hors d'oeuvres. You hear somebody in the kitc
I wanted to read to you one verse that's appropriate for today, because it's from chapter four of the Ä€di-lÄ«lÄ, "The Confidential Reasons for Lord Caitanya's Appearance," and it's a verse that you know, but KavirÄja GosvÄmÄ« quotes it here in this, and you can remember because it's 4.34 of the Ä€di-lÄ«
