Enter the flowing rhythm of devotion: ISV Movie Night & Classes this week!

                            http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/

 

Dear Friends,

Hope this meets you all well. 

Vedic scriptures have stressed the importance of hearing and chanting, Sravanam and Kirtanam, as the primary precursors in the advancement of Bhakti. Our spiritual preceptors have said that when we hear the spiritual knowledge very very carefully and regularly from the right source and maintain proper devotional service, we become progressively realized, progressively enlightened, progressively connected to Krsna and consequently detached from matter. Prabhupada once told that Krsna consciousness is very simple. If one can simply chant the holy names and hear about the pastimes of Supreme Lord from the scriptures in the association of like-minded devotees, one can immediately get connected to Supreme source, Lord Krsna, just as a light bulb when it comes in contact with the electricity, immediately glows.

Here at the ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV), we strive to facilitate that by propagating the teachings of Lord Caitanya and the glorious Sankirtana movement for the benefit of all the people in Bay Area. Over the past years, we have built a wonderful community of devotees who come together every week to experience peace, love and bliss that all of us are seeking deep within our heart. We extend a warm welcome to you to join the ISV family and give us your valuable association.

Harinam Sankirtan & Children's Rath Yatra on Friday, July 26 @ Palo Alto


http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/

 

Dear Friends,

The Children's Rath Yatra is one of the most looked forward events at ISV. It is a very colorful event where both children and adults participate in the traditional Rath yatra (chariot) festival which takes place every year during the months of June and July in the eastern part of India, particularly in Puri, in the state of Orissa. A richly decorated chariot is drawn by the kids through the streets of Palo Alto, in which the Deities of Sri Jagannath, Baladev & Subadhra are seated and taken on a procession.

Please join us for the special Harinam Sankirtan and Children's Ratha Yatra on Friday, July 26 at Palo Alto. Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu introduced the public chanting of the holy names of God for the benefit of every living entity. This is an all-perfect, all-blissful activity that is specifically prescribed for this age as the cure for all anxieties and anomalies caused by the material conception of life. We extend a warm welcome to you, your friends and family to join us on this auspicious occasion.

       HARINAM SANKIRTANA & CHILDREN'S RATH YATRA

 

When: Friday, July 26th @ 6.59pm (Please come as early as possible)

 

Where: Palo Alto, University Avenue

(The cross street will be either Emerson or Bryant, depending on the best facility available. So if you don't see devotees at University and Emerson, go east toward Bryant and look there!)

In one of the purports in Bhagavad Gita, Srila Prabhupada says, "As stated in the Srimad-Bhagavatam, the incarnation in the Age of Kali is Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who spread the worship of Krsna by the Sankirtana movement (congregational chanting of the holy names) and spread Krsna consciousness throughout India. He predicted that this culture of Sankirtana would be broadcast all over the world, from town to town and village to village. Lord Caitanya as the incarnation of Krsna, the Personality of Godhead, is described secretly but not directly in the confidential parts of the revealed scriptures, such as the Upanisads, Mahabharata, Bhagavatam, etc. The devotees of Lord Krsna are much attracted by the Sankirtana movement of Lord Caitanya. This avatara of the Lord does not kill the miscreants, but delivers them by His causeless mercy." (BG 4.8 Purport)

We look forward to having your association!

Thank you

Yours in service

Team ISV

From complexity to perplexity!

        From complexity to perplexity!

We are all aware of the fact that globalization, social media, big data, etc have opened large 
window of opportunities for us & for the future young generations, however, overwhelming amount of indigestible information flow makes people perplexed. Stuart Alan Kauffman, an American theoretical
biologist and complex systems researcher who studies the origin of life on Earth, writes in his book... "the hope that as computers grow in power, so will science's ability to predict, control and understand nature. Others demurred. Roger N Shepard, a psychologist at Stanford University, worried that even if we can capture nature's intricacies on computers, whose models might themselves be so intricate that they elude human understanding. Francisco Antonio Doria, a Brazilian mathematician, smiled ruefully and murmured, ``We go from complexity to perplexity.'' Everyone nodded."


Srila Prabhupad explains this fact in simple terms,  " Anyone who is in this material world, he has got this disease,burning fire within the heart, anyone. That means severe anxiety, everyone. Even a small bird, he is also full of anxiety. You give him some grains. It will come. It will eat. At the same time, it will look this way, that way, this way, full of anxiety. Although there is food, he is eating, still, there is anxiety, "Somebody may come, kill me." So everyone is full of anxiety. That is the material nature. Nobody can say "I have no anxiety." That is not possible. If he says like that, he is a liar. That is not possible. Is anyone here who can say that he or she has no anxiety? ” (-Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.15.27 New York, March 6, 1975 )


In the same lecture Srila Prabhupad gives a permanent solutions to end all perplexities, "Whenever you are perplexed, you read Bhagavad-gita you will immediately get relief.That's a fact. Gandhi also said that. Gandhi was a politician. Although he could not understand Bhagavad-gita, neither could he understand Krishna, still, he said that "When I read, I get great relief." He was always very busy, so many political
problems always coming. …..Bhagavad-gita, even if you read without any actual knowledge of the Bhagavad-gita, still, you will feel relief. Still you will feel relief. Just like if you go to the fire, you will feel some warmth. That's a fact. Even you do not know how to enjoy fire; still, because you are near the fire, you will get some warmth. So Bhagavad-gita is like that."

As per the CHAD plan provided by HG Vaisesika Prabhu, we should recite verses 2.1 to 2.39 starting from today until 16 Aug 2013.

We thank you all very much for your sincere efforts to read a chapter a day.
Visit http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/chad-initiative/ for  more details.

You're Invited to the Events @ ISV this week!


      http://iskconsiliconvalley.com/

 

Dear Friends,

Hope this meets you all well.  It was an eventful week at ISV with our two special visiting guests. Thank you for joining us for these programs.

It is said in the Vedic scriptures that we take on the qualities of those with whom we associate. When one keeps the association with broadminded, highly refined and spiritually advanced people, one will soon see their superior qualities manifest in oneself. The Srimad Bhagavatam summarizes the result of such an association: "In the association of pure devotees, discussion of the pastimes and activities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is very pleasing and satisfying to the ear and heart. By cultivating such knowledge one gradually becomes advanced on the path of liberation, and therefore he is freed and his attraction becomes fixed. Then real devotion and devotional service begins."

We extend a warm welcome to you and your family to join us for the classes at the ISKCON of Silicon Valley (ISV) this week.

Module I : "Self Discovery"

Session 3 : Being Present : Gift Beyond Time

 

Living predominantly in the past is tragic because nothing can be changed about the past. Similarly, living in the future also has its problems, because the future only exists in the mind. In this meditation, we focus our conscious attention on the breathing and life energy, instead of life circumstances. Life circumstances are a collection of thoughts about the past and future which changes, however, life is timeless & changeless.
