What a vow!
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 February 2013, Vrndavan, India, Caitanya Caritamtra Seminar Part 2) Madhavacarya was extraordinary because he was worshiping Krsna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. We find Madhavacarya seated at the foot of Govardhan at Govinda Kunda and we find him there deeply absorbed in his chanting of the holy name so much so,
Purification is the program
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 13 January 2013, Amsterdam, Netherlands, Sunday Feast Lecture) There are three modes of nature in the material world: goodness, passion and ignorance. Places in goodness, passion and ignorance. Places in ignorance are covered in dirt and smell foul. Places in passion is where everybody is trying to squeeze out a few more drops of
The roots of our sankirtan movement
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 February 2013, Vrndavan, India, Caitanya Caritamrta Seminar 2) Everyday when we offer bhoga, we chant certain mantras. We chant a mantra glorifying Lord Caitanya who distributed krsna prema. Then we chant the mantra, namo brahmanya-devaya go-brahmana-hitaya ca jagad-dhitaya krishnaya govindaya namo namah But why that mantra? Is it because it is a
Quality chanting
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 13 March 2013, Mayapur, India, Srimad Bhagavatam 4.30.17) I was thinking yesterday evening, as I was sitting there in the kirtan and it was so transcendental.

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 26 February 2013, Vrndavan, India, Caitanya Caritamrta Seminar 1) We remember when Lord Caitanya visited Vrndavan. On the way, he became a thousand times more ecstatic, and when he reached Vrndavan, he became a million times more ecstatic. As soon as he entered, he started to embrace every tree as if he
Are we mad?
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 3 February 2013, Prague, Czech Republic, Caitanya-Caritamtra Adi-Lila 1.2) So here we are, in the material world trying to enjoy. Srimad Bhagavatam just doesn’t say ‘fools’, Bhagavatam also says, nūnaṁ pramattaḥ kurute vikarma yad indriya-prītaya āpṛṇoti, (5.5.4). To really translare pramattaḥ may cause a little problem but if I say it as it

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)
