Want to go BTG?
Dhruva Maharaja’s life is an ideal for one who wishes to go back home, back to Godhead. Which qualities, when cultivated, can make our journey BTG easier?
Worshipping the Holy Name
Chanting is a sacred service of worshipping Krishna, just as we worship Deities. Chanting is Krishna’s super-special mercy incarnation that has descended for our greatest benefit in Kali Yuga.
Try, Cry or Die
Every day, sitting down to focus on 16 rounds of the Hare Krishna Maha-Mantra is a great challenge. Though chanting is the most accessible way to connect with Krishna in this age of Kali, at times, we may not feel His presence. Should we really expect purification of heart with a lower level of chanting? Can we easily attain Krishna’s grace by putting no or little efforts? How can we ensure that our chanting becomes a deeply fulfilling experience every single day?
