Standing the test of time
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 11 April 2014, Cape Town, South Africa, Lecture at House Program) The weight of time is the biggest weight of all. Over time to maintain the standards of purity requires a very great effort; in fact, it requires more and more effort. In the material world, in the beginning things are difficult and then
Creating friendships
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 11 April 2014, Cape Town, South Africa, Lecture at House Program) In a small temple, with predominately congregational devotees – that means devotees who are maintaining a life outside the temple and who have limited time and energy – I think we should appreciate the time spent together and maintain relationships. Because
No reason to feel alone!
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 10 May 2014, Bhaktivedanta Manor, England, Caitanya Caritamrta Adi-Lila 8.31) Our position is that we cannot see Krsna; we forget him all the time and don’t see him, and then we think, ‘Oh, Krsna, why have you left me alone?!’ Come on! The day you came to the material world, Krsna came

Sincerity and surrender
Transcribed by Kristin (Kadamba Kanana Swami, 09 May 2014, Bhaktivedanta Manor, England, Srimad Bhagavatam 8.23.3-6) I always used to think of myself as a bit more spiritual than other people. What to do! I had a little more spiritual interest than the average person, in fact I thought I was very spiritual. But when I
The value of a vaisnava
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, November 2011, Mayapur, India, Lecture: Caitanya Caritamrta Part 3) A puzzling topic is that vaisnavas consider themselves as most fallen. They spend time in presenting themselves as having no qualifications and so on. But Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur’s song Bhakti-kalpataru basically clarifies the matter, ‘I have received this wish-fulfilling desire tree from my

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)
