Instead, he called his neighbors together and told them what had happened...and enlisted them to help
haul dirt to bury

People generally go to guru, "Sir, I have got some pain. Give me some ashirvad so that my pain may be cured." "But why you have come here for curing your pain? You can go to some doctor, or you can take some tablet. Is it the purpose of coming to guru?" But generally they come to guru and ask for blessing for some material benefit. It is not the guru's task to supply gold and medicine. Not that "I have got some pain her

A person who is self-absorbed takes him or herself extremely seriously. They value their own time – but no one else’s.  They are usually quite selfish with their time, love, and money, in addition to lacking compassion for those less fortunate. 

Self-absorbed people are arrogant and often treat others as instruments or objects to get something they want. They usually see only one point of view – their own. They are righ

Drinking juice is no better than drinking soda

"People think juice is healthy, but it's not," says Dr. Robert H. Lustig, professor of pediatric endocrinology at UCSF and director of the Weight Assessment for Teen and Child Health (WATCH) Clinic. "Drinking juice — even if it says "100% natural" — is no better than drinking soda."

Lustig is on a mission to dispel common misunderstandings about juice. He says the perceptions that juice i

Everyone is eating. We are also eating. But we don’t eat directly. Whatever we prepare and whatever we collect, we first of all offer to Krishna. Because we think —and it is a fact—that everything belongs to Krishna. Krishna has given. You cannot manufacture rice, dhal or wheat in your factory, neither fruit, nor milk. It is given by Krishna. Eko bahūnām vidadhāti kāmān. He is giving and one has to acknowledge that, “Y

There are very few people who do not pray to get a good life.  Everyone wishes to have a pleasant life . When the life becomes smooth, one can fulfill his responsibilities on time without bowing down to  others. 

A Bhakta is a broad minded . He knows that his good life is the gift of Bhagavan Sri Krishna . He gladly spends part of his wealth for Bhagavan and his needy Bhaktas .

On the contrary , an Atheist is selfish. He

At times, it can seem like life is our enemy, as if things never quite pan out the way we would like them to, as if there’s a secret conspiracy against us. However, it’s critical to remember that, in reality, life isn’t our enemy. There is no conspiracy. Life is just life. It is what it is. The factor that can make life seem like our enemy, however, is our thinking.
    
As obvious as this insight may seem, the implicatio
