What is Krishna trying to teach me? part 2
(H H Kadamba Kanana Swami, 9th February 2012, Leicester, England) Lecture: SB 1.2.19 I gave the example of pride – when suddenly someone loses everything and is humble: ‘Alright Krishna wants me to develop humility.’ Or someone may experience anger and how it is getting out of hand. I myself had an experience as a
What is Krishna trying to teach me? part 1
(H H Kadamba Kanana Swami, 9th February 2012, Leicester, England) Lecture: SB 1.2.19 The material world is sometimes presented as an educational model – a place where we have to learn a lesson. This life is meant for that purpose. Krishna is trying to teach us in this life. So it’s in that mode that
One must always be on guard

“I’m totally unaffected!”
(Kadamba Kanana Maharaja, 9 February 2012, Bhaktivedanta Manor) Only by constantly taking shelter are we protected. One should not underestimate the power of the illusory energy- it is very, very strong and very powerful. If we leave a gap then Maya will enter.

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)
