Dear Mataji Hello. Hare Krishna!! <<this is a real letter not an answering machine...>> Thanks for visiting the Sudarsana page and signing the guestbook.. I'm from Australia and I have been in NZ a few times also. Of course I'm sure you know why we are here. We have misused our independance, we have choosen to try and enjoy here without Krishna... But that is not possible. we are constitutionally servants of Krishna... So all our attempts to be happy without Krishna are doomed to failure. So we have the greatest gift, Krishna consciousness. Srila Prabhupada has mercifully given us the topmost knowledge, the most sublime and ecststic process of chanting: Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama, Rama, Hare Hare It is our duty to take it seriously and to distribute it to others also... jivana anitya janaha sar taha nana-vidha vipada-bhar namasraya kori'jatane tumi thakaha apana kaja "You should understand this essential fact: life is temporary and filled with various kinds of miseries. Therefore carefully take shelter of the holy name and remain always engaged in His service as your eternal occupation." (Bhaktivinoda Thakura) So please visit again. There's lots of text Sudarsana site and you can use the search button [magnifying glass] on the button-bar at the top of the screen to find things you are interested in. I think you could find something there. But the most important thing is to read Srila Prabhupada's books... He has given everything in his books. Prabhupada is living in his books.. golokera prema-dhana hari-nama-sankirtana rati na janmilo kene \tay samsara-bisanale diba-nisi hiyua jwale juraite na koinu upay "The treasure of love of God has descended from the spiritual world of Goloka Vrndavana, appearing in this world as the sankirtana movement of the chanting of Lord Hari's holy names. Why am I not attracted to it? Day and night I burn from the poison of material existence, but still I refuse to take the antidote." (Narottama dasa Thakura) I don't know what you read so I don't know why you thought it was heavy... But Krishna consciousness is a little heavy anyhow. What can be done about that?? Really the only way for people to come to Krishna consciousness is by chanting, dancing and feasting in the assocation of pure devotees, then they will naturally become pure devotees also, but I haven't worked out how to do that on the net... Chant Hare Krishna and be happy...
