Sri Swamiji’s address at an Interfaith Meet
Unity, Not Uniformity!
 "This has come about at a time when it is needed the most. Though people of different faiths have been speaking about their own faiths, all have come together today to conduct this interfaith harmony meet.
One need not look at a book for proof about the existence of God..."
So began Sri Swamiji's beautiful address to an interfaith gathering in Chennai.

The Misunderstood Sage Narada
 “Narayana! Narayana!” These words, heard in a slightly sing-song, lilting tone, brings to mind a chirpy yet mischievous image of Sage Narada walking in, strumming his inimitable tambura.

Madhurageetham: Sri Krishna Leela #12
Damodara Leela - Bound by the Cord of Unalloyed Love!
The 10th canto in Srimad Bhagavatam is known as “Ashrayam” or “refuge” for Lord Krishna’s devotees for it talks about the Lord’s incarnation and his sweet lilas on this Earth. Sri Swamiji has written beautiful kirtans on these various lilas of Lord Krishna. So, in this series we will relish those lilas of Lord Krishna through Sri Swamiji’s kirtans.
 Lord Sri Krishna is bound by the pure selfless love of His devotees.
Nothing demonstrates this better than the endearing Damodara Leela.
