Get Your Bhajan On: Keep Your Practice Lined Up HG Vaisesika Dasa ISKCON Folkstone 31 Mar 2026

It's nice to have everything lined up. My wife and I were just on a personal retreat recently—five days to step back and really look into what we're doing, how we're doing it, and what we plan on doing in the future. In the room I was staying in, I was trying to find enough surface area to line up everything that I wanted to look at and read while I was there staying in that Airbnb by the coast in California, and I found an ironing board inside the closet—you know, a complimentary ironing board. I put out the ironing board and I put out everything that I was going to read and chant the next day; I had it all lined up on the ironing board. Everyone should get one! Whenever I get up in the morning, I will have it all lined up—exactly what I'm going to do. I do that at home, also. You put out what you're going to do. This is what I call 'getting your bhajan on.' You should have your own individual bhajan—that’s your thing you do every day. Of course, there's the chanting of rounds, and then what else do you want to do? Line it up! Because if it's there in front of you, you're going to be much less likely to do something else that's random. One of the techniques for controlling the mind is to say—when the mind says, "Well, why don't you randomly scroll so that your brain can be scrambled a little more?"—you can say, "Fine, I'll do that later. But first, I’ve got to do this, this, and this. These things come first." Put your phone at the very small end of the ironing board and say, "Okay, when I finish all these, then I'll get to that." By the time you're done with all that, you don't feel like scrolling anymore, right? So, this is one of the ways of really getting your bhajan on in your life. It's our own personal opportunity. Because we're humans, it's not 'time' anyway—it's 'taste.' In order to get a taste, you have to practice and the best kind of practice is methodical: you do it every day, you keep doing it, and it grows from there, right? ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: Podcasts: For the latest videos,
