Re: Global Hunger and Vegetarianism


Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna!
Dandavats and obeissances.

Organic food may not have more nutrients than conventionally grown food but it doesn't have the pesticides that come with conventionally grown food. These cancer causing pesticides are the main reason people buy organic foods.  I would suggest that one grow their own or find some locally grown produce at a farmers market. I get most of my produce free from people who have gardens.

Hari Bol!

(GERMAN) 10. Srila Prabhupada über Nityananda Gauranga Naam (12)


4. Ein Acharya mag etwas tun wollen, aber er �berl�sst es seinen Nachfolgern, es zu vollenden, wenn die Zeit dazu gekommen ist. So wie Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada wollte, dass der Name von Gauranga auf der ganzen Welt verbreitet wird, aber selbst nie ins Ausland gereist ist, und diese Aufgabe dann seinem Sch�ler Srila Prabhupada �berlassen hat. Genauso wollte Prabhupada, dass das Gauranga-Mantra sich auf der ganzen Welt verbreitet, wie ganz klar aus seinen wiederholten Anweisungen hervorgeht, und er hat dann diese Aufgabe seinen Nachfolgern �berlassen.

5. Prabhupada sagte: �Der fortgeschrittene Gottgeweihte kann neue Wege und Mittel entdecken, um Nicht-Gottgeweihte zu bekehren, je nach Zeit und Umst�nden. Hingebungsvoller Dienst ist eine dynamische T�tigkeit, und der fortgeschrittene Gottgeweihte kann n�tzliche Mittel finden, um ihn in die abgestumpften Hirne der materialistischen Bev�lkerung einzuimpfen. Solche transzendentale T�tigkeiten der Gottgeweihten im Dienste des Herrn k�nnen einen neuen Lebenssinn in die dumme Gesellschaft der Materialisten bringen.� (SB 1.5.16, Erl�uterung)

Srila Prabhupada im CC Adi-Lila 7.31-32, Erl�uterung: �Das ist ein wichtiger Punkt. Caitanya Mahaprabhu wollte einen Weg finden, um die Mayavadis und andere, welche nicht an der Bewegung f�r Krischna-Bewusstsein interessiert sind, einzufangen. Das ist das Merkmal eines Acharyas. Von einem Acharya, welcher kommt, um dem Herrn zu dienen, kann nicht erwartet werden, dass er in ein Schema passt, er muss die Wege und Mittel erst finden, durch welche das Krischna-Bewusstsein verbreitet werden kann.�

Bitte beachte, dass die Worte �neue Mittel und Wege entdecken� bedeuten, dass ein fortgeschrittener Gottgeweihter Krischna- und Gauranga-Bewusstsein durch Mittel (wie die Gauranga-Mantra-Diksha und Gayatri-Mantra-Diksha u.s.w.) predigen kann, welche von den vorangegangenen Acharyas wom�glich nicht praktisch angewendet wurden. Sebstverst�ndlich tut das der fortgeschrittene Gottgeweihte mit der Inspiration und gem�ss dem Wunsch der vorangegangenen Acharyas und Nityanandas, und niemand sollte eifers�chtig sein wegen der Einf�hrung dieses erhabenen Vorgangs der Nityananda Gauranga Mantra Diksha, um die zehn Vergehen nachhaltig zu zerst�ren.

6. Kommentar von Srila Saccidananda Bhaktivinoda Thakura zum Aphorismus 43 aus dem Tattva Sutra:
�Gottgeweihte des h�chsten Herrn werden nicht von den Schriften kontrolliert, da ihre T�tigkeiten  geistesverwandt mit g�ttlichen Weisheit sind. Wenn die fortgeschrittenen Gottgeweihten neue Anordnungen treffen, sollten sie als religi�se Richtlinie angenommen werden, selbst wenn sie nicht in den Schriften der vorangegangenen Weisen gefunden werden k�nnen. Die wird auch von Manu best�tigt.�

Re: 01 Introductory Glories of Shri Navadvipa Dhaama


I am grateful to Ananta Raama dasa prabhu for proof-reading this most important chapter in all Holy Books. I have also re-edited this whole chapter very thoroughly quite a few times and I think it is almost ready and finalized now to be included as the main portion in the upcoming booklet, The Secret of All Secrets. It can also be translated into other languages now to reveal the most hidden secret of this Kali Yuga to one and all. This one chapter completely summarizes the essence of Nityaananda Gauraanga Naama-Lilaa-Dhaama Tattva and NITAAI Yoga. Nityananda!! Gauranga!! Hare Krishna!! All Gllories to Shri Guru Parampara!

Daaso'smi, BR Sadhu Swami Gaurangapada.

Re: Global Hunger and Vegetarianism


What are devotees thoughts about this article?

LONDON (Reuters) - Organic food has no nutritional or health benefits over ordinary food, according to a major study published Wednesday.

Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine said consumers were paying higher prices for organic food because of its perceived health benefits, creating a global organic market worth an estimated $48 billion in 2007.

A systematic review of 162 scientific papers published in the scientific literature over the last 50 years, however, found there was no significant difference.

"A small number of differences in nutrient content were found to exist between organically and conventionally produced foodstuffs, but these are unlikely to be of any public health relevance," said Alan Dangour, one of the report's authors.

"Our review indicates that there is currently no evidence to support the selection of organically over conventionally produced foods on the basis of nutritional superiority."

The results of research, which was commissioned by the British government's Food Standards Agency, were published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Sales of organic food have fallen in some markets, including Britain, as recession has led consumers to cut back on purchases.

The Soil Association said in April that growth in sales of organic products in Britain slowed to just 1.7 percent in 2008, well below the average annual growth rate of 26 percent over the last decade, following a plunge in demand at the end of the year.

Re: What is really there in the Lord's heart


Dear devotees,

Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna! I apologise for not adding my greetings at the top, so I do so here. To continue with the realization:

And finally in the end,  pure devotional service is revealed as the goal of life.
 
The purpose of everything is LOVE

The impersonalists are so far away that they cannot approach the first verse of the chatuh sloki bhagavatam...Like licking the surface of the bottle containing honey. And they all declare themselves God only by trying to neutralise the real Lord by making him impersonal. So Lord Chaitanya never really shows his mercy to them.

Swami: Yes, krishna bhakti haya antardhana

me: That was about a summary of it...but it was amazing to actually experience what I only read about before
 
I was seeing it like live...the chatuh sloki bhagavatam -- the rest of all spiritual knowledge is revealed only from there..and our acharyas have revealed that

As a matter of fact, simply the truth that Lord Chaitanya is the Supreme Lord...Gaura lila is alone enough to destroy all mayavadism in the material world.

And lastly this
 
Bhagavad Gita
 
So many people interpret the Bhagavat Gita whimsically...But in the 12th chapter the Lord reveals His heart...When he says that His devotees are the most perfected souls. And he goes on to say that he who is a perfect devotee is very very dear to Him. Nowhere else in the Gita does He say it anywhere that anything else is dear.

That's where His heart is revealed -- He ultimately only wants the love of His devotees

me: He really does not support any other path in his heart
 
And you know when it comes ... one thing becomes obvious...These wonderful realizations are always going on all the time
 
me: I have to allow the Lord in my heart. He always knocks, but if we don't give Him room, we don't become part of that wonderful spiritual life

This was a wonderful piece of revelation which the Lord revealed. And I am eager to share it with you all. Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna!

Daaso'smi,
Srinath
