Hare Krishna,
Few months back I was in Rajasthan and I was inspired to write this small article dedicating to all those following simplicity diet. I am sure those who visit villages in Rajasthan get the same feeling. In comparison to villages in other parts of India, Rajasthani villages are special.

That is the only plan, and no matter how many schemes we employ to adjust things in this material world, if they have no solid basis in Krishna's plan, they remain merely dreams of phantasmagoria.

When we have to practice spiritual austerity to make spiritual advancement, when we have to sacrifice some so called material activities to which we are conditioned, then we must realize that in exchange for this there will be realization of spiritual happiness.
