ISKCON Ujjain Global Spiritual Retreat 2014 with His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami

25-Dec-14 to 31-Dec-14
Dear Devotees,Please accept my best wishes. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

I hope by Krishna’s mercy that you are happily situated in Krishna consciousness.
I invite you to the second Global Spiritual Retreat at ISKCON Ujjain from 25th to 31st December 2014.
For the last few years we have been holding regional retreats, and last December we held the inaugural annual global retreat in Ujjain for devotees from all over the world. I encourage you all to attend this year too.
ISKCON UjjainThe theme for this Retreat will be: Srila Prabhupada – The Founder-Acharya of ISKCON. Why have we chosen this theme? Because we need to constantly emphasise and remind ourselves of Srila Prabhupada’s unique position in our movement. There are many founders and many acharyas, but only one Founder-Acharya of ISKCON. We will cover in detail the GBC statement that Srila Prabhupada is the preeminent siksha-guru for everyone in ISKCON. We will also cover the prayers of Queen Kunti, relish in Gaura-katha and enjoy kirtan everyday!
ISKCON Ujjain has grown to become an outstanding and vibrant temple with a spiritual atmosphere that is admired by everyone who visits. Ujjain is a very important spiritual place of Krishna’s pastimes. It is here that Krishna came to study in Sandipani Muni’s ashram. He also came here to claim the hand of Mitravinda, one of the eight principal queens of Lord Krishna. Ujjain is one of the four holy cities where Kumbha Mela takes place and it is also the place of one of the 12 jyotir lingas where Lord Shiva eternally resides. It was for King Indradyumna, the King of Avanti (Ujjain), that Lord Jagannath appeared. Actually the spiritual potency of Ujjain is undoubtedly unique and that becomes revealed when you visit here. Many devotees have said that being in this place does not feel like being in modern India.
It is by Srila Prabhupada’s mercy that we have this wonderful opportunity to get together. The temples of ISKCON are actually the places of pilgrimage where devotees can meet. They are also educational institutions where sincere devotees get the opportunity to study the science of Krishna consciousness. At the same time, the temples of ISKCON are the hospitals where the living entities, suffering from the terribly contagious disease of materialism, get an opportunity to get cured.
As a representative of Srila Prabhupada, it is my duty to guide you to his divine lotus feet. Attending such retreats will undoubtedly give us an opportunity to take full advantage of what Srila Prabhupada has given us to make rapid spiritual advancement.
I very much look forward to seeing you at the retreat.
Yours in the service of Srila Prabhupada,
Bhakti Charu Swami

Few predictions for the modern time kali age from the Vedic scripture Bhagavatam

In the last canto of the Bhagavata Purana there is a list of predictions and prophecies about the dark times for the present age of Kali Yuga. The following 15 predictions, written 5,000 years ago by sage Vedavyasa, are amazing because they appear so accurate. Despite the negative tone of these prophecies, there is still one bright spot for all of us, which is mentioned at the end. Prediction 1: Religion, truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, mercy, duration of life, physical strength and memory will all diminish day by day becaus of the powerful influence of the age of Kali. Source: Srimad Bhagavatam 12.2.1 sri-suka uvaca tatas canu-dinam dharmah satyam saucam ksama daya kalena balina rajan nanksyaty ayur balam smrtih Prediction 2: In Kali Yuga, wealth alone will be considered the sign of a man's good birth, proper behaviour and fine qualities. And law and justice will be applied only on the basis of one's power. Source: Srimad Bhagavatam 12.2.2 vittam ev...

Manav Dharma of Satpalji Maharaj will be better only IF they follow Krishna Consciousness also

OPINION By elevating yourself to Krishna Consciousness your goal of having a human form of life will be attained easily and quickly as you would qualify to get into the kingdom of God. On the earth too, you will live  in peace of mind.There is not other authentic quick and easy way. Every one needs peace and thus the human races has been in search of peace and happiness all the time. They are looking for the methods that would hopefully enable them attain peace mentally and physically. In the process some look out for the ascending order of methods, some the descendeing order. Both deserve equall respect although one method would be more beneficial and easy than the other depending on the individual themselves. The perfect wisdom to accept for peace or liberation is the descending process of wisdom. This means the proces of attaining peace and happiness by accepting the wisdom that is given by the absolute creator, Lord Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This wisdom ...

Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu and His Mission- The Sankirtan

Vedic wisdom has begun to unfold to undertstand in its right way only after Lord Krishna appeared on earth as Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, manifesting in Him the display of true love of  a pure devotee.   His Holiness Bhakti caru Swami Maharaj  explaines to the hundreds of exalted devotees, the mission of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, excerpt in short . Listen audio here   What is the difference between Krishna and Vishnu? How many of you know the difference between Krishna and Vishnu. Who is Vishnu? Vishnu is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Who is Narayana? Narayana also is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But who is Krishna? Krishna is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead from whom all the incarnations have become manifest. So Vishnu, Narayana, Narsimha, Varaha, Kurma - they all are expansions of Krishna. But the thing is there is no difference between Krishna and His expansions. This expansion takes place like one to two, to four, to five, six, seven, eig...
