Title: Uddhava Gita
ISBN: 0-912776-60-9
Author: Krishna-dwaipayana Vyasa, commentaries and purports by Vishvanatha Chakravarti Thakura
and Shrila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura, translated by Bhumipati Dasa
Synopsis: Similar to the Bhagavad-gita, this book focuses on the instructions given by Lord Krishna to His friend Uddhava, just prior to the Lord’s returning to the spiritual world. Part of the Shrimad Bhagavatam, the teachings in this book are very similar to those found in the Bhagavad-gita, yet at the same time it delves into other topics not found in any other Vedic literature. Spoken directly by God, this book is a great read.

Vishnu Worship
by Krishnas Mercy on 02/23/2011 3:00AM
 “Whenever a devotee wants something from Lord Vishnu, Lord Vishnu first of all considers whether such a benediction will ultimately be good for the devotee. Lord Vishnu never bestows any benediction which will ultimately prove disastrous to the devotee, He is, by His transcendental nature, always merciful; therefore, before giving any benediction, He considers whether it will prove beneficial for the devotee.” (Shrila Prabhupada, Krishna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vol 2, Ch 33)

 Gaura Purnima is the celebration of the appearance day anniversary of Lord Shri Krishna Chaitanya. The Vedic calendar is based on the lunar cycle, and purnima is the period of the cycle when the moon is full. It is considered a very auspicious time and Lord Chaitanya was born during this cycle of the moon in Mayapur, India in 1486. The Lord’s complexion was golden, so hence the date is celebrated as Gaura Purnima.

 “Do you now without delay convey the news of my arrival to that one of immortal exploits, Rama, who is at once my father, brother and friend, and whose beloved servant I am. The eldest brother of one that is noble and cognizant of morality becomes his father. I shall take hold of his feet. He is now my refuge.” (Bharata speaking to Kaikeyi, Valmiki Ramayana, Ayodhya Kand, Sec 72)

A Regulated Mind
by Krishnas Mercy on 03/03/2010 3:36AM
 “Whatever is achieved by meditation in Satya-yuga, by the performance of yajna in Treta-yuga or by the worship of Krishna's lotus feet in Dvapara-yuga is also obtained in the Age of Kali simply by chanting and glorifying Lord Keshava.” (Padma Purana)
