"My dear Lord, my consciousness is thoroughly mundane. Though I mouth the names of the Lord, I am too unfortunate to experience their transcendental touchstone qualities. O Lord! I beg You to please appear as the holy name and dance on my tongue. I fall at Your lotus feet and pray: if You like, You can keep me in this material world or place me in the spiritual sky. Whatever desire is Yours, You are free to fulfill, but please let me taste the divine nectar of Krsna's holy name. You have descended amongst the conditioned souls to distribute the holy name, so kindly also consider me, an insignificant jiva. I am a fallen soul and You are the savior of the fallen. Let this be our eternal relationship. O Savior! On the strength of this relationship, I am begging from You the nectar of the holy name."

Image: dipatch.com Occupy Wall Street demonstrators carry a "false idol" to New York's Zuccotti Square I was recently having lunch with a few of the ministers and pastors from our Interfaith community here in New York`s the East Village, and I was struck by how our conversation turned, like the force of a magnet, towards the practical matters of feeding and caring for the increasing number of homeless and destitute who were appearing in the Village. I felt a certain disquietude as I listened. I didn't feel comfortable joining in their interest, and as I explored that discomfort, I returned to the disconnection still lingering in my heart between a bridge unmade. My own compulsion to understand truth had previously lead from me the realm of social justice and activism to the realm of the spirit, and since that transition, I have been struggling to reconcile within my heart the bridge between these two worlds. As I began exploring my feelings surrounding that lunch, another layer of truth hit me like a ton of bricks. The headlines I read turned towards a unique gathering in downtown Manhattan, which we all know now as the "Occupy Wall Street" protests. In the past few weeks, I have been doing a dance in my mind and heart over how I feel towards this unlikely and unprecedented turn of events. I have gone from being quite eager to go down there and join them in their strange and colorful carnival, and I have also felt an equally strong desire to keep my distance. Other monks in our ashram are feeling the same way, teetering between feelings of solidarity and skepticism, encouragement and discouragement. Yet it's something we can't ignore, not only because it's right down the street, but because it is speaking to a voice we know we all share. Stop what you are doing for a moment and go to this website which is philosophically and practically linked to the protests on Wall Street:http://wearethe99percent.tumblr.com/ What do you feel when you read some of these people's accounts? I feel the pain of my own parents' financial troubles. I feel the pain of so many people from the wasted city of Detroit, where I grew up and honed my roots. I feel the pain of people just like me, just like you, who have found that precepts of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness", as guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence, are a cruel joke laid upon them. I look at many of the young people saddled with college and credit-card debt and I also feel gratitude for my current shelter as a monk, which has allowed me to keep a certain space from being plunged into that kind of angst, an angst which is visceral and existential all at once. I can literally say that "there but for the grace of God go I." Most of all I feel that there are people who are done with being stuck with the survival of the fittest. Those camped out at Zuccotti Park near Wall Street are but the spearhead of what appears the emergence of a new zeitgeist, of a potential movement moving across lines of race (though not necessarily class), which is done with what Naomi Klein calls "The Shock Doctrine", or disaster capitalism. The 99% are people who are sick of being manipulated and exploited by the 1% who, by all appearances on the surface and underneath, are rigging the system and benefiting beyond any sense of means and decency by a dependence on the inherent shocks and chaos programmed into the system itself. In her book The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster Capitalism, Klein writes of the 1% and one of their "spiritual" preceptors Milton Friedman: "This desire for godlike powers of total creation is precisely why free-market idealogues are so drawn to crises and disasters. Non-apocalyptic reality is simply not hospitable to their ambitions. For thirty-five years, what has animated Friedman's counterrevolution is an attraction to a kind of freedom and possibility available only in times of cataclysmic change-when people, with their stubborn habits and insistent demands, are blasted out of the way-moments when democracy seems a practical impossibility." This is clearly a movement which is making the attempt to push back, to assert an essential need for decency, integrity, justice, and humanity. They are articulating a voice for so many of the voiceless. The desire of their heart is so sincere, and this is what is attracting so many of us to consider and even directly support their activism. Yet, despite all these obvious truths, I still struggle to join my body, mind, and heart with their own. This is largely because I am a head-space person, and I am becoming more conscious of the "limits of my empathy", as articulated quite nicely in a recent NY Times op-ed by David Brooks, but the bridge between these considerations and actual action is also still unmade, and is the great conflict of my inner spiritual life at the moment. There are practical considerations in any case. As monks, our distance from the world insures the space and freedom to cultivate the deeper spiritual reality which underlies and actualizes all potential solutions to the problems of this world. This distance allows a proper perspective and vision. I can't help but relate to the similar struggle the great Catholic writer Thomas Merton also felt in trying to understand the bridge between his concerns for social justice and spiritual truth. He was careful to avoid the kind of zeal that warps sincerity, and which turns this sincerity into the violence of pride. From his 1962 essay The Seasons of Celebration he defines the zealot as an individual: "who 'loses himself' in his cause in such a way that he can no longer 'find himself' at all. Yet paradoxically this 'loss' of himself is not the salutary self-forgetfulness commanded by Christ. It is rather an immersion in hos own wilfulness conceived as the will of an abstract, non-personal force; the force of a project or program. He is, in other words, alienated by the violence of his own enthusiasm: and by that very violence he tends to produce the same kind of alienation in others." There is, of course, a fear in getting involved, of getting too drawn in when we are already in our ashram stretched to the max is so many ways. There is also a fear and hesitation based on simply not being familiar, on the ground, with the protestors, with who they are, what they are feeling, what they are experiencing. The only to this cure is a careful engagement on our part, to a sharing of our presence which also keeps us free from the winds of the chaotic and unformed aspects of this movement. What the Occupy Wall Street movement needs, and what it is yearning for, is something more than a band-aid solution. They must solve the questions of leadership, policy, momentum, and a deeper integrity which will resonate with the mainstream. They must solve the question of how they are going to become truly transcendent. Where do we come in to help them do this? Humbly of course, at first, not pretending to be the soothsayers who will guide them to victory, but as their servants trying to make them aware that they are on the cusp of a potential revolution in consciousness. We want them to understand truly what it means to come in like a needle, and out like a plow. It is my own personal conviction that, as devotees and caretakers of Srila Prabhupada's mission, that we cannot live in a vacuum. We must offer, in some way, our presence, our association, our wisdom, our lifestyle, our love, friendship, and support. I ask for your blessings and your own prayers that we can perhaps all do this with courage and without naivety.

Walk Harinam~Segara Beach - Padang Galak Beach
Every living being is anxious for full freedom because that is his transcendental nature. And this freedom is obtained only through the transcendental service of the Lord. Illusioned by the external energy, everyone thinks that he is free, but actually he is bound up by the laws of nature. A conditioned soul cannot freely move from one place to another even on this earth, and what to speak of one planet to another. But a full-fledged free soul like Nārada, always engaged in chanting the Lord's glory, is free to move not only on earth but also in any part of the universe, as well as in any part of the spiritual sky. We can just imagine the extent and unlimitedness of his freedom, which is as good as that of the Supreme Lord. There is no reason or obligation for his traveling, and no one can stop him from his free movement. Similarly, the transcendental system of devotional service is also free. It may or may not develop in a particular person even after he undergoes all the detailed formulas. Similarly, the association of the devotee is also free. One may be fortunate to have it, or one may not have it even after thousands of endeavors. Therefore, in all spheres of devotional service, freedom is the main pivot. Without freedom there is no execution of devotional service. The freedom surrendered to the Lord does not mean that the devotee becomes dependent in every respect. To surrender unto the Lord through the transparent medium of the spiritual master is to attain complete freedom of life. • Email to a friend • •Madhava Ghosh dasa, New Vrndavan, USA: Devotee Brothers Use Sports to Build Community and Keep Youth Fit 
Raghu and his wife Yamuna outside the Alachua temple Samba Zaldivar, 36, and Raghunath Zaldivar, 31, have played soccer for many years and have found it a good way to keep the "temple of the body" fit, as well as to build community and contribute positively to the development of the next generation of ISKCON youth. Raghunath, a father of two, has served as a P.E. teacher in the local charter school for nine years, where a large percentage of the students are devotees. He began playing soccer while at the Gurukula day school in Gita Nagari, Pennsylvania in 1986 and '87, and when he moved to Alachua the following year, began playing in the city's local recreational soccer league. At twelve years old, his talent was spotted, and he was picked to play for a select team by the US Youth Soccer Association, traveling to cities throughout Florida to play other all-star teams until he was seventeen. At the same time, Raghunath—known to his friends as Raghu—made the varsity team at his high school, Santa Fe, and became its all-time leading scorer with 62 goals, a record he still holds. "I had some really cool experiences there," he says. "There was a whole bunch of devotee kids on the team. Once while we were on the bus, some of the other kids starting asking us what the Hare Krishna mantra was, and when we told them, they wanted to chant it. The next thing we knew, the whole bus was roaring out the Hare Krishna mantra!" After high school, Raghu received a scholarship to play for Carson-Newman, a Baptist liberal arts college in Tennessee. Traveling to neighboring states such as Kentucky, Georgia, North and South Carolina, Virginia, and Alabama while playing for its soccer team, he established strong bonds with his fellow players and introduced many of them to Krishna consciousness too. "They'd see me chanting japa, and would have many questions about it," he says. Graduating from Carson-Newman in 2002 with a degree in communications, and a minor in psychology, Raghu didn't have to wait long to find a job. Upon moving back to Alachua, he was contacted by the head of the local charter school who asked him if he'd be interested in applying for the position of P.E. teacher. He did, got the job, and now, nine years later, he hasn't looked back. "I love my job," he says. "I teach 165 students right now, about half of whom are devotees, from Kindergarten through eighth grade. We do warm-up exercises, stretches, the Presidential Challenge Physical Fitness program, rock-climbing, and tons of games—American football, soccer, and many games that I made up and the kids gave crazy names. There's Raghuball, which they love—it's a combination of Capture the Flag and Dodgeball—and Death Lane, which is also a type of Dodgeball. In this country right now, we have a big problem with childhood inactivity, obesity and heart disease—so many kids just stay inside and watch TV and play videogames all the time. Our philosophy is to make sure the kids have a really good time and learn to enjoy physical activity, so that they have a positive outlook on it throughout their lives." Raghu also seeks to give youth a positive experience of Krishna consciousness, and has contributed to his community by organizing a mentoring program and other schemes in the past. Recently, however, he has managed to combine sports and Krishna consciousness for a wonderfully unique offering to the youth of ISKCON Alachua.
Coach Raghu (back row, third from the left) with teachers and P.E. students from Alachua charter school "When I was going to Carson-Newman, a Christian college, I noticed a lot of churches doing something called lock-ins for their youth," he says. "Because kids love getting together and staying up all night, they created a supervised facility for them to do that, with plenty of activities that would have a positive influence. So I decided to do the same." Every year, in October or November, Raghu rents the gym at the Alachua Recreation Center, and organizes a spectacular lock-in for thirteen to eighteen year olds from the local ISKCON community. The teenagers stay up all night from 8pm until 8am, playing sports such as soccer, Basketball, Raghuball, and a gurukula favorite called Dadhi Bandha. Prasadam is provided for them throughout the night, and mixed in with this healthy, supervised fun are many Krishna conscious activities. Various devotee speakers from the community make presentations on Srila Prabhupada, the Bhagavad-gita, the Holy Name, and even local preaching efforts such as Gainesville's Krishna House. "They absolutely love it," Raghu says. "As soon as one lock-in ends, we get kids asking us when the next one is for the rest of the year!" Raghu's brother Samba, who has also played soccer since high school, also uses sports to create a positive social and fitness experience for the local Hare Krishna youth, but in a slightly different way—he has his own soccer team. "Back in 1996, when I was twenty-two, we started a team called The Pandavas, after the heroes of the Mahabharata," he says. "Eighteen out of the twenty-two players were devotees, who would come out and play with shaved heads and sikhas. The community would show up to our games playing mridangas and kartalas. It was crazy." Although the Pandavas only lasted two seasons, in 2004, Samba decided to start a new team of second generation devotees. While the number of devotee players has sometimes fallen, today, there are fourteen amongst the twenty team members of "Real Alachua." "What's special about it is that I also used to teach P.E. at the New Raman Reti school on our ISKCON property years ago, and now many of the kids I taught have grown up and are my team-mates," says Samba. "The team chemistry is great, because we all know each other so well." Affiliated with the Gainesville Regional Soccer League (GRSL), Real Alachua has won six League championships and five tournament championships, and remains one of the top teams. "If you look at our roster now, it's full of names like Govinda, Krishna, Balarama, Mathura, and Uddhava," Samba says. "That's pretty awesome!" Describing his team as keeping devotee kids engaged in a healthy, clean way, Samba adds, "Apart from me and my brother, who is also on the team, many of the others are between the ages of eighteen and twenty. So sometimes I'll find myself coaching them. If they loose their temper, for instance, I encourage them to relax and remind them that it's just a game." Raghu, whose priorities are bringing his children up in Krishna consciousness, contributing to his community, and doing Deity worship both at home and at the temple, agrees. "In sports, as in life, we must remember to play the game, but not be attached to the results, as Krishna says in Bhagavad-gita," he explains. "Sports are good for your body's health, and can be a positive recreational activity; and I think playing them is fine as long as we always remember not to take them too seriously and loose focus of what's really important in life—Krishna."

Thank God It's Friday (TGIF) is the first thing that comes to my mind, waking up on a Friday morning. As for most us, this is like the Heaven on Earth day, since it is the last day of the working week, unless you are some crazy workaholic.
Now we have the most SPECIAL inspiration; the Food For Life Malaysia and Bramacharis team organises FFL and Sastra Dana programs mostly at schools on Fridays. Of course some programs are also organised on other days of the week. So on 14 October 2011, a joyful event was organised at SRK(T) Thamboosamy Pillai, Sentul. For Simheswara, Rasa Parayana prabhus, it was bringing back time in memories, as it was their hometown!
Malaysian timing or Indian timing? NO WAY, when it comes to school programs. Everything has to be punctual. The event commenced at 10.00 am with Siva Caitanya prabhu guiding the school children to sing the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. Ha, this is interesting! We had Rasa Parayana prabhu playing the kartal and Santi Vardhana Caitanya prabhu dancing on the stage, teaching them how to sway their body to the left and right and saying Haribol! Vallabhi mataji was also guiding the kids to chant. Good coordination ah? The children were having so much fun! All you can see is smiles and laughters! They were very enthused (Yes, better response than a Sunday feast program, haha). Soon after, they had a competition between boys and girls; as to who sang louder, correctly with proper coordination. They had to listen to Siva Caitanya prabhu singing and follow the dance steps of Santi Vardhana Caitanya prabhu. With eyes closed, you can tell, the girls obviously followed better (I am not being a feminist here, haha). Later, they also had volunteers from the students, to chant the Maha Mantra and rest to follow!
Santi Vardhana Caitanya prabhu gave a brief speech on Krishna Consciousness and Bhagavad Gita. When he asked "Who Krishna Spoke the Bhagavad Gita to?" Some of the kids answered "Indians!!!" haha! One boy got it right, he said loudly "Aaaaarrrrrjjuuuunaaaaa!" It was then time for Book Distribution! BBT Malaysia is very systematic, where books were given according to their age category which includes colouring books, children books, some simple reading philosophical books and we also had books for the teachers. Srila Prabhupada ki! Jai!
Santi Vardhana Caitanya and Siva Caitanya prabhus presented the books to the school teachers and kids. They were all so so so happy to receive the books and I personally saw some children going through them which was very encouraging.
Meanwhile the rest of the team were preparing prasadam packets for the kids! And Guess What's special? It is Malaysians all time favourite NASI LEMAK preparation, with corn jelly and lime drink to quench the thirst of the noon heat!! These were prepared by our Masterchef Malaysia Mayapur Chandra prabhu and team.
After having prasadam, some teachers took the opportunity to learn more about Krishna Consciousness, they were speaking to Simheswara, Santi Vardhana and Siva Caitanya prabhus. They had many interesting questions and they personally were happy and thanked the team to have such encouraging, spiritually enlightening and wonderful program which benefits not only the kids but also the teachers themselves. In total: 26 Krishna Story Hard Bound and 309 small and medium size literatures and 350 prasadam packets distributed. P/S: Let me tell you, Children are so much fun. And if you had a crazy week, consider taking leave on a Friday, because this is not only a spiritual program, it is stress relief, fun, exciting and very satisfying at heart. In summary: YOU WILL LOVE IT! We also need more volunteers to assist the FFL Malaysia team; it would be wonderful if you could give a hand. The more the merrier! Come on! BOY, I wish I was in school again! • Email to a friend • •ISKCON Desire Tree: Vaishnava Calender - Srila Narottam Dasa Thakura -Disappearance<div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?i=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?i=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:KwTdNBX3Jqk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?i=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:KwTdNBX3Jqk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:l6gmwiTKsz0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=l6gmwiTKsz0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:gIN9vFwOqvQ"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?i=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:gIN9vFwOqvQ" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?a=pxLUkigT0mU:nH3KKzblK-Q:TzevzKxY174"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/Iskcondesiretree?d=TzevzKxY174" border="0"></img></a> </div> • Email to a friend • •H.H.
