REMEMBERING HIS GRACE PANKAJANGHARI PRABHU

Whenever devotees in ISKCON go through any problems, they at once remember Narasimhadev. Remembering Narasimhadev invariably means remembering Ugra Narasimha of Mayapur. And when you think of Ugra Narasimha of Mayapur, how can you not think of the two glorious twin brothers, Jannanivas Prabhu and Pankajanghari Prabhu who are always standing at the side of Narasimhadev ready to offer prayers of protection to Him on behalf of the devotees?

Even though, the world is now bereft of the association of Pankajanghari Prabhu, we all know with great conviction that he will always be present next to his worshippable master, Narasimhadev praying for the welfare of all of us as our well-wisher.

All glories to Narasimhadev!!

All glories to His beloved servant, His Grace Pankajanghari Prabhu!!

THEORY OF IMPORTANCE

" When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor. " - Elon Musk Many times we look for solutions everywhere but overlook what is right below our nose. We expect that the solution to our complicated problems has to be equally complex. But many times, true solutions are counterintuitive that means complex problems could have simple and straight solutions. If we carefully observe our life, we will see that we have only those things that we consider important and those things missing in our life is because we feel they are not important. When I say important, it is not important in the general sense but the attitude that "it's important to ME." You see, once something is important to us, we will find every way to get it and overcome all the obstacles, just because "it's important to me." Another angle to see this is in when we have something in life, we are sending a signal to others saying - "so and so thin...

MANEUVERING THROUGH DISTRACTIONS

"Attraction to distraction causes serious inhibition in one's devotion." When someone practices spiritual life sincerely, he or she is given all facilities for comfort and enjoyment. Why? For the simple reason that God wants to award the best of the best facilities for His sincere devotee. But, it is the onus of the devotee to use these facilities carefully for rendering better and better service to the Lord and not get allured and strayed away from the path of unalloyed devotion to God because settling for anything other than service to God is settling for less than the best.
