Transcendental consciousness
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 30 March 2014, Cape Town, South Africa, Sunday Lecture) When living beings face death, it is difficult but a person in transcendental knowledge can understand it. How long are we together? Now, we are a circle of people – there are some new ones – but many old friends come together regularly,
Dancing like Krsna’s puppet
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 08 April 2014, Cape Town, South Africa, Rama Naumi Initiation Lecture ) There are sacrifices to be made in service. When one is just having a comfortable niche in Krsna consciousness and one is not challenged in service then we begin to feel dry. We begin to feel, ‘I do not
Rain of mercy
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 29 April 2014, Radhadesh, Belgium, Srimad Bhagavatam 6.4.49-50) We must, somehow or other, connect to Krsna and that changes everything. We had this one kirtan, a Ratha Yatra actually in South Africa, in Newcastle and it was raining cats and dogs, as they say in English. When it rains cats and dogs, you
The story of Krsna Das
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 03 May 2014, Bhaktivedanta Manor, England, Caitanya Caritamrta Adi Lila 8.27) There is a story about a vaisnava, in the time of the goswamis when the Radha Govinda deities were still in Vrindavan, who was serving in that temple in a very humble position – he used to sweep the courtyard.

The answer to the depression of kaliyuga
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 April 2014, Radhadesh, Belgium, Caitanya Caritamrta Madhya Lila 22.142) I do not have the fix for material problems – I don’t. I also have material problems – many! So, I cannot fix anyone’s material problems permanently. Material life is a broken car. It is an old, old, broken car. Many screws
Devotee specialists
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 31 March 2014, Cape Town, South Africa, Srimad Bhagavatam 9.5.1) We have our natures and are naturally attracted to a particular type of service; that is fine! But we should not become specialists and say, “I can do only this and nothing else!” When required, we must be able to do anything

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)
