Janmashtami is the night Lord Krishna took a physical form.
If you have still not read the Bhagavad Geeta, start right away. The Highest Knowledge in all its Glory is here… Don’t read any commentary on it. Simply read the translation or the original Sanskrit (if you understand sanskrit). This is one of Lord Krishna’s greatest gifts to us. Read one chapter a day. Never more.
Have a great weekend!
Jai Gurudeva!

This time, I may be the first on to comment on this article.
Yes, I attended Janmashtami 2009 at Ashram and Guruji talked about Krishna, Gita etc.
Here is an old video from Janmashtami 2007. Guruji insisted that everyone should read Gita daily. You may like to watch it

I too had attended the Janmashtami 2009 celebration at AoL Ashram in Bangalore on 14-Aug-09 and the Independance Day celebn on 15-Aug-09 held in the Yagya-Shala attended by the Advanced Course members from Gujrat. I too videos with my DigiCam and have posted one “Narayan Narayan Jai jai Govind Hare” on youtube. May pl. visit my page http://www.youtube.com/user/dipaktahil. May pl. tell more about you.
“Radha is his most beloved among all the gopis, but even she is jealous of his flute, coz the flute always stays with him. The flute has seven holes. Enchanting, captivating, bliss inducing music can be played from a flute only if it is hollow and empty.
Our body also has seven chakras… When we become hollow and empty, then Krishna’s breath flows through us, and we become an instrument of the Divine… Our words are His words, our actions are His actions. We become pockets of tranquility and bliss. And then we are always with Him. Just like His flute! ”
One of the BESTEST Lines i have read .. its great reading the old posts again ..
Jai Gurudev!!

The simplest one… Gita Press … it costs about Rs 30!
Got it, thanks! It is in fact freely downloadedable from their website. Here is the link for those who are interested.
