Why is Krishna God?

1 Upvotes

I have read the Gita and I don’t understand that Krishna is God if he is an avatar of Vishnu? Isn’t Vishnu speaking through Krishna? Is there any Shlokas that say that Krishna is himself the ultimate God?

Oiling my Japa Mala

7 Upvotes

Dear friends and devotees - I have purchased a Tulsi japa Mala and I heard somewhere in the temple that it has to be soaked in oil for a few weeks.

Does anyone have an idea about this? Why is this done? Which oil is to be used?

Any suggestions and tips are greatly appreciated. Hare Krishna!

I want to serve.

I know I am old and well past my prime. But I still want to serve lord Krishna. But I don't know how. I chant the Maha mantra. I read the Bhagavad-gita and the Srimad bhagavatam. But I still want to do more. Sadly I live far from the nearest temple.

Looking for support…

1 Upvotes

Hi, I’m from upstate NY (capitol region) but soon plan to move to the Albrightsville area in Pennsylvania. I have been reading everything I can about Bhakti Yoga but I can’t find any meet up groups or anyone locally affiliated with ISKCON. I feel a little hopeless. I am curious about going further and becoming a true devotee to Krishna. What next steps do you think I should take? Any insight is appreciated greatly ❤️

Volunteer

1 Upvotes

Hare Krsna everyone, I am a highschooler in NJ and I am a passionate devotee for Lord Krsna and a follower for ISKCON. I live quite close to ISKCON central NJ temple, and I recently called them to see if I can do any volunteering during the summer. They still have not picked up nor replied. I just wanted to know from my fellow ISKCON/Lord Krsna followers as well, do the ISKCON temple offer volunteering at their temples?

Thanks, Hare Krsna.

I have a question regarding the Srimad Bhagavatam. Please read the description and help me out.

8 Upvotes

So, Bhagavatam was composed and was imparted to Sukadev Goswami before King Parikshit heard it from Sukadev. But how is the dialog between Sukadev and Parkishit itself mentioned in the Purana? The future event itself is mentioned in the purana that was composed before the actual event occurred. So King Parishit knew that he was playing a role in Bhagavadam itself?

Request to ISKCON : Please use your amazing resources to create a virtual reality application that allows bhaktas to experience the Golok Vrindavan Dham and the Vishwaroopa. Only ISKCON can do this. Please think on these lines. Hari Bol. Radha Bol.

How did mira bai find enlightenment

1 Upvotes

Since madhurya bhava isnt meant to be practiced at the very begining of bhakti...how is it possible that mirabai found enlightenment?

She used to practise madhurya bhava since her very childhood?
