The topmost devotee
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 23 September 2012, Durban, South Africa, Radhastami Lecture) Krsna is the all attractive Supreme Personality of Godhead. Sri krsna-akarsani, devotional service can attract Krsna. Srimati Radharani is in the maha mantra, present in the word ‘Hare’. The word ‘Hare’ represents devotional service. Devotional service is of a very wonderful nature because as described in
Arrival in South Africa, September 2015
Written by Nicole Kadamba Kanana Swami arrived in Johannesburg on 08 September. After a day of rest, he joined the Krsna Balaram Youth Group in Randburg for their weekly bhajan night. It was a crisp Spring evening with an outdoor setup but Maharaj’s kirtan was sure to warm everyone up very quickly. Every now and
What about our scars?
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 26 April 2015, Radhadesh, Belgium, Vyasa Puja Morning Lecture, Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 24.124) Question: Are there any scars from one’s past sense gratification – drug, sex abuse or other previous impious activities – which cannot be changed in this life? It may be that certain drugs have burnt out the brain
Eyes anointed with transcendental love
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 22 September 2012, Durban, South Africa, Srimad Bhagavatam 11.31.24-28) It is said in the Bhagavatam that the pastimes of Krsna are covered by darkness and cannot be seen by the materialist.

We must increase our devotional life and that is really necessary. It is not so cheap, going back to Godhead. We get the chance but we still have to work for it. Why else
The highest state of love
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 June 2015, New York, USA, Bhagavad-gita 9.33) I remember in Vrindavan when we were listening to a lecture in our temple, sometimes there were a lot of ants in the temple and not small ones but those big ones with the tweezers on their nose. So when they would come for

Dear Devotees
On Thursday 9th March at 12.06pm, under the gaze of Śrī Giriraja, in the holy land of Śrī Vṛndāvana dhāma, in the loving company of his spiritual master and the vaisnavas, with a resounding kirtan party, His Holiness Kadamba Kanana Swami departed from this material realm.
"Intelligent persons who take shelter of beautiful Vrndavana's opulent vines melting with motherly love, and throw far away the idea that they are material, become supremely successful, both in this life and also after death." (Prabhodananda Saraswati, Vrindavana Mahimamrta)
