About Me

I am struggling devotee of Krsna. Struggling to get out of material entanglements. Hoping to find a home with Krsna while still on this planet, hoping to find a way to surrender to Him, and be able to serve Him to the best and fullest extent of my abilities. "This life of material existence is just like hard wood, and if we can carve Krishna out of it, that is the success of our life.""O Lord, I am just like a puppet in Your hands. So if You have brought me here to dance, then make me dance, make me dance, O Lord, make me dance as You like." spoken by Srila Prabhupada as he departed the boat and came to AmericaThere are four classes of men: lazy intelligent, busy intelligent, lazy fool and busy fool. First-class man is lazy intelligent. Busy fool is very dangerous. - Srila PrabhupadaBhagavad Gita, 18-65 Purport Life should be so molded that one will always have the chance to think of Krsna. One should always act in such a way that all his daily activities are in connection with Krsna. He should arrange his life in such a way that throughout the twenty-four hours he cannot but think of Krsna. And the Lord's promise is that anyone who is in such pure Krsna consciousness will certainly return to the abode of Krsna, where he will be engaged in the association of Krsna face to face.

What's your inner power? (Girls only sorry. Beautiful anime pictures, lengthy results)
Empathy- Your inner power is Empathy! This means that you have a talent for identifying others emotions, often by simply glancing at them. You are EXTREMELY shy and quiet. People sometimes dont notice youre around and seem surprised to find out you even exist in a big class. Youre the often silent, goody two shoes, and few get passed the walls youve built up to stop yourself being hurt, as you no doubt have been in the past. Not everyone understands you, in fact some think that youre a snob or worse because you rarely participate in group activities. Youre extremely sensitive, even the least harsh of words can hurt you. Only your very few, closest friends who have earned your hard-to-get trust know who you really are inside; a sweet, gentle young woman who is lonely and so desperately needing friends to support you. You can get very depressed and not always know why, despite your power of empathy, as it seems to only work for people outside you. Your friends always turn to you when they need advice or comforting, and in some way you need to give that help it makes you feel better in return to know that youve helped out your friends. Despite your cold, impassive exterior and high, seemingly unbreachable walls, inside you are really a great, intelligent person, full of compassion and love, if only people would dare take a chance and try to get through your tough shell. Never let others get you down, or change you. You are very special the way you are even if you dont have fifty thousand friends, you are just as, if not more extraordinary than everyone else. Reach for the stars, because I dont doubt youll catch hold of them. Boy/Girl who will sweep you off your feet: A sweet, shy and romantic man/woman. The kind of guy/woman you know will never, ever hurt you, and will love you for ever. The kind of person who believes in true love, and soul mates. Your stone: Blue Topaz Your power: Healing. Emotionally, physically, or spiritually, you heal people with your words, your actions and presence. Youre the one that the little children are always drawn to, because they know youll never let anything hurt them. Your element: Clairvoyance (The power to see objects or events that cannot be perceived by the normal five senses.) A quote that applies to you: "True beauty shines from the soul and warms the world with its kindness, compassion , and integrity."

My Interests

The more I surrender, the more free I become. SRI SRI RADHA GIRIDHARI, SAN DIEGO, CA "If the opulence or knowledge of many millions of universes were clustered together, they would hardly equal a small fragment of the glory of Krsna's holy name. Krsna's holy name is my life. It is the goal of my life. It is the means I will employ to attain the goal of my life."[Srila Rupa Goswami, Padyavali, Text 23]"If you want to truly surrender you should close the backdoor...shut it close and never think that you can go back through that door. As long as you keep that door open, thinking I can always go back you'll never find yourself fixed in Krsnas service..because everytime maya comes to attack you instead of taking shelter of Nitai, you take shelter of your own mental concoctions and your past life which is already gone. Don't linger in the past or dream of the future..Serve Krsna today..!!!" PICTURES FROM JANMASTAMI AUG 16, 2006 AT SRI SRI KISHORE KISHORI TEMPLE IN CHICAGO The All Attractive Couple
