Today as I write, it is on the 60th anniversary of Srila AC Bhaktivedanta's landing in America, getting off the cargo ship penniless, but with metal trunk of the treasure house of Vedic literature translated into English.

What is real happiness? Everyone is searching after happiness, but we do not know what real happiness is.

Real happiness depends on our consciousness. Like a stone cannot have developed consciousness to know what is real happiness. A stone (even a rolling stone) has undeveloped consciousness. It cannot enjoy the senses. Just like imagine how a tree is standing on the road, or on the path.

But suppose a human being is asked to stand for even 3 days on the road or on a path or in the forest? They are not able to tolerate that situation. The conclusion is that every living entity feels happiness or distress according to their development of consciousness. The tree may enjoy the happiness of the cold the wind the snow the rain the constant sun, but that sort of happiness a human with higher consciousness cannot enjoy. Animals have no developed sense of enjoyment. So one has to use their intelligence.

The example is there that one animal is being slaughtered, but the next animal has no sense that he is going to be slaughtered as well.

So humans are thinking they are happy, but the next moment they can be miserable. One has to be intelligent to enjoy nicely.

Take the example also of a dead man. The senses for enjoyment are all there; the hands, the nose, the legs, the eyes, and the ears, but the dead body cannot enjoy.

This requires intelligence to understand why the dead body does not enjoy. All the sense organs are there, but the human cannot enjoy. That requires higher intelligence. With intelligence we can understand that the soul has gone away, and therefore the senses of the body cannot enjoy. And if you use your intelligence further, you can understand that the body never did enjoy! It was always the spirit soul that was experiencing enjoyment.

The real enjoyer is that small spiritual spark. Again,

this requires a little intelligence. The dead body cannot enjoy anymore.

😅 people love their animals...! What's the difficulty? If you want to be a cute animal in your next life you are most welcome. But the rare opportunity of this human form is that we can elevate our consciousness. There is no being that can have higher consciousness except in this human body we have been fortunate to obtain after going through 8,400,000 species. 😊 Try to go deep into all the available enlightenment philosophy we have been gifted. Keep the main thing the main thing, it is so valuable. We are by nature full of bliss, full of knowledge and eternal. Haribol! Hare Krishna 24/7



You may want to watch the video a second or third time or take notes on it.

Oh my Govinda ...what an excellent expert extraordinary exultant class! Thank you for the video. It is astounding, it is beauty itself, it is the Supreme Personality of Godhead present in Srila Prabhupada's excellent explanations. The real truth is painted before our very eyes and ears.

Genuine swami is very rare in India

Why would you want to "allow your mind to wander away from God"....

Like a devotee needs a vacation from God or Krsna consciousness. This kind of reporter is wacked.

Mukunda das Goswami is one of the dearest disciples of Śrīla Prabhupada. He never compromised Krsna consciousness with George... always gave him Kṛṣṇa straight up.

George was so respectful. Even though he introduced the mantra to millions (maybe billions) from the very first early days when he heard it recorded by Śrīla Prabhupada in that New York studio and it was broadcast via an all night radio station for 6 hours straight. Because the airwaves at silent deep night are more clear, he heard it all the way in UK. Then he ordered 300 copies. George was quite merciful and generous. He didn't compromise his bhakti for all his fame and musical talent. It's wonderful to see all the original devotee friends that met him and encouraged him still surrounding him with affection and friendship. That loyalty he must have had warm feelings for. Shyamsundar was with him when he left his body, (and maybe Mukunda?)..

Thank you for sharing this video.

Great to see not only the upkeep but the improved quality.

THANKS.

HARIBOL!

"Unlike other holy men, Bhaktivedanta is not thinking of retiring".

What the world needed then, now and forever in the future was wrapped up, decorated, and gifted to America first, then every town & village.

Had Śrīla Prabhupada retired, where would we be? 🍂🍁🔥🍁🍂

The guy looking like a Western bandit says " yes".

This is the degraded accusation of a mudha....
