The greatest power of those who are learned and realized is the power of love and the power of forgiveness. - Radhanath Swami

[@nickpalliser9590]

Jesus and Lennon said the same thing. What makes Slavin (poser par excellence) so special?

[@TheYamaduta]

Is that why he had Sulochan ( and who else ?!? ) murdered in cold blood ?!? Because of his intense " power of love " ?!?

[@nickpalliser9590]

Exactly . . . Prabhupada had it all figured out even on his death-bed and still he was forgiving right to to the end. Not like these fakes and phonies who ruined the whole ISKCON movement and screwed it up royally. All that's left is an empty carcass of what it once was.

[@TheYamaduta]

Forgiving ?!? Prabhupad's last words were " kick the demons in the face " !!!

[@nickpalliser9590]

[@davidperman7517]

Remember that we live not simply to the purpose of good works. Our actions are only profitable if we recognize our dependance upon God, lest we grow too proud to recognize that it is only through Him that any good can flow out of us. Our humility should be a result of our understanding of this. John 15:4-5 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”

[@beaconoflightnewyork7979]

i just watched your interview with Tom Bilyea and came to Ted Talks hoping to hear more from you. I love your wisdom and agree with almost all you say here. (One small difference I believe when we have true compassion for another, we don't need to take on what they are feeling. For if we can understand where they stand with love in our hearts, we can still hold them in their true potential of wellness and possibility. In doing so it will serve them best to to move in the direction of what they desire, instead of the absence of it - it may only be in small baby steps, but as long as we can help them climb up the emotional ladder , and allow momentum of thought to build there, they will find what they were seeking was always possible. Kind of like how Dorothy always had the power within in the Wizard of OZ.) I am passionate in connecting mind and spirit with understanding of the new sciences. Science is only beginning to understand what the indigenous have known for thousands of years. All that Radhanath Swami explains here is such a wonderful way for us to lead a joyful life. I have a video that expresses this well which is called "The Power of Our Heart". It may be helpful to those that want a little guidance in tapping into our compassionate loving heart. Blessings to you and others that understand how we are all one in an wonderful world of possibilities.

Such genuine wisdom shared here... the best way to establish the spiritual connection is to understand that every living creature is the loving child of that supreme father. With that in mind it seems easy to treat every other living being may it be human or animal, as our own loving brother or sister. The Srimad Bhagvad Gita verse that he quotes is also serves the purpose of substantiating the wonderful knowledge that HH Radhanath Swami shares here. I feel like listening to him again and again as his teachings really bring me back to focus. I really feel better spiritually connected as much as I absorb his teachings.

So well said Jayesh. This talk really inspires us to be that positive change that we want to see around. Often there is a hesitation in our hearts to take some steps towards that positive change thinking that what difference will my small step make, but the fact is that each small step counts and makes it impact. Everything change starts from a small step. I remember once HH Radhanath Swami narrated that Lord Ram considered the efforts of a tiny squirrel and might Hanuman as the same because both of them were serving in the mission of building the bridge to Lanka to the best of their ability.
