An active agent in our spiritual life
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 25 January 2013, Radhadesh, Belgium, Caitanya Caritamrta Seminar Part 5) Lord Caitanya tends to accept even a little endeavour, even when it is a poor endeavour and He gives you credit for it. He gives you the full credit for it. So Krsnadas Kaviraj Goswami says in one verse, sri-krishna-caitanya-daya karaha vicara and
Hierarchy in nature
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 December 2012, Cape Town, South Africa, Srimad Bhagavatam 8.6.39) One living being is food for another. So that is a very brutal design, basically intense! And you may think, as a human being, you are not subjected to it in the same way as animals are, like a bird when it drinks water.
Building a castle for Krsna
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 January 2013, Radhadesh, Belgium, Radhadesh Mellows Class) One can just imagine the man who built this place here (Radhadesh) for his own enjoyment. My God, what kind of man was that!? What kind of mind did he have? What did he think he was going to do here, in this castle? And
“Let’s make it come true!”
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 24 January 2013, Radhadesh, Belgium, Srimad Bhagavatam 1.8.31-36) Prabhupada writes this in a letter to Jayapataka Maharaja, ‘The prediction of Lord Caitanya was that it (the sankirtan movement) would spread to every town and village but Bhakti Vinoda Thakura predicted that people from all over the world would come to Mayapur and chant the
Effective preaching
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 31 December 2012, Cape Town, South Africa, Srimad Bhagavatam 8.7.4) Srila Prabhupada was in Japan and he went to Dai Nippon which was a printing company and they had so many dealings. Prabhupada used to go with Tamal Krsna Maharaja. The Dai Nippon representatives would offer a price, then Tamal Krsna Maharaja would argue with
Never forget for a moment
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 January 2013, Radhadesh, Belgium, Radhadesh Mellows Class) In the Caitanya-candramrta (1.5), there is a description from Prabodhananda Sarasvati Thakura and he writes: durdāntendriya-kāla-sarpa-paṭalī, protkhāta-daṁṣṭrāyate. Then he says: viśvaṁ pūrṇa-sukhāyate. He says that the senses are like black snakes with poisonous fangs that are attacking us constantly. And these snakes will bite. The nature of a

1953 - 2023HH Kadamba Kanana Swami Departs
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)
