Wednesday, July 8th through Tuesday, July 15th, 2009 | | | | | | | From Srila Prabhupada: So you are always dependent on Krsna and His mercy. You are thinking that "We shall adjust these material things and become happy." That is foolishness. That is not possible... The prakrti is there. All the riches are there. Everything is there on the ground. Just like we are getting so many things from this ground. The trees, the plants, the foodstuffs, the minerals, so many things. There is everything, complete. You'll see in your garden there are different types of flowers, color, scent, flavor. But wherefrom it is coming? It is coming from the earth. Can you make any scent from the earth? But the scent is coming from the earth. The rose flavor, wherefrom it is coming? It is there. Anyone can understand. But you cannot extract that. Krsna requires His hand. -- "Faith Or No Faith--Fact Is Fact" Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.16.24, Los Angeles, July 14, 1974 | | | | | | UPCOMING Janmastami 2009: Thursday, August 13th Mark your calendars for the biggest festival of the year, Sri Krishna Janmastami, the Appearance of Lord Sri Krishna.
