This realisation can be attained even by

Guru is the mirror that reflects as well as the transparent medium that enables looking and seeing, enriching experience. He is both formless and in form, the silence and the utterance, the absence and the presence and both the shunya nothing as well as everything.
In him, the disciple see both what he wishes to be and what he is. The idea finally is to connect-connect so well and so spontaneously that you too, become the mirror, the formless, the silence, the shunya, and a transparency in which

Mirabai was a princess of Rajasthan. She was a woman of immense beauty and virtue.
In the course of time Mirabai was married to a prince. In his family everyone was a worshipper of the Mother-Power. Mirabai was the only worshipper of Sri Krishna. Because of this, a sad dispute arose every day.
There came a time when, utterly dejected and frustrated, Mirabai left her husband's palace and went to Brindaban to live. It happened that a Bengali sannyasin, who was also a great worshipper of Sri Krishna,
A saint asked his disciples, Why do people shout at each other when they are upset?'
Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, 'Because we lose our calm,
we shout for that.'
'But, why to shout when the other person is just next to you?' asked the saint.
'Isn't it possible to speak to him or her with a soft voice? Why do you shout
at a person when you're angry?'
Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the saint.
Finally he explained, 'When two people are angry at each other, their

"The materialist thinks that persons engaged in Krsna consciousness
are crazy fellows wasting time by chanting Hare Krsna, but actually he
does not know that he himself is in the darkest region of craziness

Hare Krsna!!!
my dear devotees, I hope your week has been blessed with lots of nice realisations, service and peaceful chanting of the precious names of the Lord. I was thinking today how we are always trying hard to engage our minds in chanting and concentrating on the sound vibration of the holy names, actually we shouldn't think too much about the mind but just chant and hear, because by doing this our mind will be trained to concentrate and won't b
Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian Youth's Rite of Passage?
His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him
alone. He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove
the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He
cannot cry out for help to anyone.
Once he survives the night, he is a MAN.

come into manhood on his own.
The boy is naturally terri

When Lord Vishnu in His Mohini form was distributing nectar to demigods two
demons named Rahu and ketu sat down along with the line of Demigods. By
mistake Lord served them nectar into their mouths. Immediately the lord was
informed by Sun and Moon that those two were demons.
As soon as Lord came to know this information He cut off the heads of both
demons. By that time necatar had not pass through their throat. It was still
