Sri Sri Radha Londonisvara

I would like you to tell all the current devotees and volunteers that I
personally heard Prabhupada say in the Bury Place temple, that "Radha London Iswara are so merciful that even if one serves them unknowingly or accidentally, Krishna will see them as his pure devotee, and their life will be perfect- What to speak if one willingly engages in their service."

Amita dasa (Srila Prabhupada disciple)

Relationships

A small realisation...

If you have no relationships with devotees then you cannot influence their lives.

If they respond to you it is out of duty only and certainly not love.

Food for the soul

Ended my detox on Sunday.

Lasted 2 weeks and started to go stir crazy !

Managed to lose 1 stone and 4 Ibs so not bad I guess.

Am on 2 days of orange juice now and then salad and fruit tomorrow before being allowed to eat normally. I have never looked forward to eating salad in all my life !

Feeling quite energetic actually - less going in makes you feel less sluggish and more alert.

Not so with spiritual food mind you.

By spiritual food I mean reading, chanting, seva- our daily sadhana.

The less that goes in for that means the more sluggish you feel mentally - in the mind and intellegence.

Whatever happens we gotta feed the soul spiritual food.

Afterall we are pure spirit so we won't be happy with anything less.

As Srila Prabhupada said just like a fish is not happy being out of water.
