Very engaging narration. I was hooked from the beginning to the end.

Excellent description prabhuji. Dandavat pranama. I remember being amazed at your description of those 18 days during the summer of 2006 at Kharagpur centre on the day of Pandava nirjala ekadasi so as to keep us happy despite fasting on a hot day. And did that work? Oh yes, it did much more than that! Scored a 100! This time you are breaking your own records again. Looking forward to all 18 days!

Hare krishna prabhuji...
In today's world, each one feels entitled like duryodhan and yet we feel that we are as virtuous as pandavas... Each one misbehaves and puts the blame on external world,and then we play the victim card and assume in our tiny brains that Lord will come to save us because "I am the only one who is virtuous"... What is the practical solution? Shifting blame within, shadow work, cut off from toxic people, meditation, tolerance to external situation, continue to walk on life's journey as a karma yogi? Is 3D 5D ascension which the western horizon is talking about real?
