I’ve Made It Now Get Fat And Sit Back.

(Kadamba Kanana Swami, Lenasia , Radhastami 2010) Just when the Gopis thought in the Rasa dance, Krishna is under our control…whoosh He was gone. That is the nature of devotional service.

We can try it out for breakfast and see what happens, so like that it’s about: “Not wasting the opportunity.” … So it is not fanaticism that we

HH Kadamba Kanana Swami Departs

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)
