Therefore all devotees should worship Ganapati". Lord Sri Krishna has of course discouraged
Krishna has given some the opportunity to serve Him by nice writing, some by good business ability, some by nice cooking, and so on, but these various services are all accepted equally by Krishna. On the transcendental plane, one service is as good as another. There is no question of higher or lower. We are very tiny, and so we cannot really do very much.

Mere pran tum bin ye jivan abhishaap hai,
iss jivan ka sab shukh mere liye paap hai!!!

Iss dasi ko jivan jivan nahi lagta
daya kare, pyare kripa kare

mere madhu ,o mere madhu , mere madhu balaat hiy dhase shake
main ye kahun prabhu aap phale aur ye virah taap dede.
By its very nature material existence is very complex and problematic. We are constantly tormented by so many difficulties such as birth, death, old age and disease.

Mohini Ekadasi
The glories of Mohini Ekadasi, which occurs during the waxing moon in the month of April/May, are described in the Surya Purana.
Once Maharaja Yudhisthira asked Lord Krishna, “O Janardana! What is the name of the Ekadasi that occurs during the waxing moon in the month of April/May, and what is the process for observing this Ekadasi? Please explain all these to me in detail.”
Lord Krishna replied, “O son of Dharma! Please hear Me attentively as I describe the story that sage Vashisth
