Dhritrashtra had lots of material emotions. He used to cry tears for it. He wished to remain the king of Hastinapur and also wanted his son Duryodhana to succeed him. He was so much possessed with his material emotions that he committed several and severe blunders. The end result for him was unfortunately very gruesome – he not only lost his kingdom but also his 100 sons were killed. We too are possessed with material emotions. Materially we want to achieve the best of this world - big house, fa

So we are fallen in this material condition in different forms. So long we are in this bodily concept, "I am this car," that is ignorance. I am not this car, but I have to utilize this car for going to my destination. That is wanted. So I am not this body. I am spirit soul. My destination is how to go to the spiritual world, how to meet the supreme spirit, God, and live with Him in His association. So this life is meant for understanding what is the Supreme Lord, where does He live, what does He

Financial advisors repeatedly use the jargon – high risk high gain & low risk low gain – thus aggressively persuading the people to invest their hard earned money in high risk sectors. To maximize high gain people often invest in high risk sectors. During the period the money is invested the investors remain in deep anxiety because of uncertainty associated with the money market. If the return is not as per expectation then he is devastated and if unfortunately the share market crashes then peop

There are many reasons to eliminate worry from your life. First and foremost, it’s highly stressful. Think about how you feel when you’re worried. It’s all-consuming and energy draining. It encourages you to focus on problems and on how difficult your life has become. 

When you worry, you are on edge and tense. Therefore you tend to be easily bothered or irrationally upset.

When you worry, it’s more difficult to concentrat

Who are you? Are you your body? Or your mind? Or are you something higher? Do you know who you are, or do you merely think you know? And does it really matter? Our materialistic society, with its unenlightened leadership, has made it virtually taboo to inquire into our real, higher self. Instead we use our valuable time maintaining, decorating, and pampering the body for its own sake. Might there be an alternative?

We are parts and parcels of the Lord; this is elucidated by Krishna in Bhagavad – Gita (15.07), “The living entities in this conditioned world are My eternal fragmental parts.” Krishna’s primary expansions are the visnu-tattva and we, the living entities, are his secondary expansions. Being his fragmental parts & parcels we also possess qualities akin to that of the Lord. We are qualitatively equal to Lord but quantitatively we are infinitesimal to Lord. For e.g. Lord can create huge planets and

“The sexual exposure we face is unparalleled in the history of mankind… Because pornography and sex have such a forceful pull on us, if left unchecked our society will erode before our very eyes. We will have millions of people who have sexual addictions.”

I have voluntarily divided myself into an observer and the observed. And I'm forcing myself into the active state of observation. I can see the dullness, the laziness, the inertia, the self-conscious fearful habit patterns, the mental chatterings, the sluggishness, the impatience, the restlessness within me. I feel so tired, so worn-out and so helpless that I just want to run away from the state of observation. I feel so frustrated and angry when I see the stuff that I am made up of. It is reall

Amazing incidents on Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakura

We know Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur through his most dearest disciple - Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupad. Prabhupad always said - "I have no ability. I'm only simply following the instructions of my Guru Maharaj and it is only by his mercy alone that I am able to do everything." Thus, he was an object of his Guru's mercy. In a span of 11 years, Srila Prabhupad initiated 5000 disciples all around the world, built 108 t

He was roaming in the streets of Mumbai in a deplorable state. His body was covered with faeces and he was just donning a tattered t-shirt and nothing else. Jagdish Mali was once a renowned film photographer who is credited with immortalizing the famous Indian movie star, Rekha. During his hey days, several movie aspirants would make a beeline in front of his studio. But today he was all alone, in a decrepit state. Aghast by seeing his plight some of the people tried contacting his daughter. But

So our Krsna consciousness movement is just to educate man that you believe or not believe, it doesn't matter. There is God. There is the proprietor, but He's coming personally and He's saying, bhoktaram yajna-tapasam sarva-loka-mahesvaram suhrdam sarva-bhutanam: [Bg. 5.29] "I am the proprietor, I am the enjoyer, and I am everyone's friend. If you want to be delivered from this miserable condition of material life, I am your best friend.

Priceless Experiences on Book Distribution

It was the first time I've distributed the Bhagavad Gita — altogether a new and wonderful experience. Yesterday, I started distributing in my own block. My mother and I went door to door, yearning to tell others about the Gita's importance in our lives. A few people were welcoming and listened to us with interest. Some were less interactive.

For millions and zillions of years he has been patiently waiting for us. One would have become hopeless by this time. But still he has the hope that a day will come when we will look towards him and will say “Yes, I have been missing you”.
