It maybe that one is a brahmacari or brahmacarini and then one feels, “I cannot do this anymore. It is time to get married.” Some people, when they get married,
On the edge
Transcribed by Kristin (Kadamba Kanana Swami, 24 July 2014, Prague, Czech Republic, Srimad Bhagavatam 1.13.20) Maya is not just waiting for us to fall down.

Is dishonour worse than death?
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, January 2012, Radhadesh, Belgium, Srimad Bhagavatam 5.9.4) It is said in the Bhagavad-gita that dishonour is worse than death!

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)
