Taste or no taste!
(HH Kadamba Kanana Swami, Radhadesh, Belguim, July 2012) One devotee told me: ‘I’m not chanting anymore because I don’t have the taste.’ So I said: ‘Taste or no taste, the point is about making spiritual advancement.’ I tried giving him many answers, but nothing seems to work, since he kept saying, ‘I have no taste.’
Ecstatic kirtan
(HH Kadamba Kanana Swami, 8th August 2012, Slovenia, The Balkans Lecture: SB 1.3.28) Devotee: What was the most ecstatic kirtan? Maharaja: Well, every kirtan is ecstatic. The kirtan that you are performing is the most ecstatic… It’s always ecstatic. Of course, when the mercy goes out, then I must say that is especially ecstatic. We
A Kirtana Mela in Spain
From the Janmastami marathon in the Balkans, Kadamba Kanana Maharaja accepted an invitation to a small Kirtana Mela festival that was held in New Vraja Mandala, a Hare Krsna farm project near Madrid, the capital of Spain.

It’s like learning how to walk
(HH Kadamba Kanana Swami, 8th August 2012, Slovenia, Lecture: SB 1.3.28) Srila Prabhupada wanted everyone to become a devotee of Krishna. Some were criticising by saying that this was dogmatic and very narrow: We must be a little open to other ideas and other religions. Why just Krishna? But Prabhupada would say: You know, they are dogmatic
A Christian parallel
(HH Kadamba Kanana Swami, Musko Sredice, 7th August 2012, Lecture: Free Talk) We see that in the early middle ages, the Christian Crusades, which were meant to secure Jerusalem, were somewhat successful. So at that time, many Christian seekers settled in Palestine on Mount Carmel. There were many devotees living in caves, in very simple conditions. They were

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)
