Changes comes from Within

Everywhere we see, people demand for changes in societies, countries, working cultures and in families. But one thing they forgot, they cannot make changes in other until and unless they do not change themselves.There is a story of one boy, he was falling sick frequently for his sweet eating habits, so his mother went to one saintly person and asked the reason why he is not stop eating sweet as he knows that is the reason I am falling sick again and again.
The saint looks that boy and asked mother to come after a week. Mother and son came after a week and met saint one again. Saint told boy,"My dear, please stop eating sweet as it is harming your health."
The mother asked that saint, "We came last week, but you did not say anything, why you took a week to say the same thing which could tell before too?"
Saint smiled and replied, "That time I was also eating sweet and I thought let me stop first before saying to that boy to stop."
So we can learn a meaningful lesson from this story, before changing to someone we must change our self. And we cannot change everyone instead we need to accept the person how they are. We always see the faults in others and start criticizing and hating them, but there is no effect on that person instead we make our life miserable and it makes our behavior to change everything according to our acceptance. And if we cannot change situations and people we get frustrated.

We must understand, changes come from within and if we change our self the whole world seems changed.

Life is a preparation, death is an examination

We participate in so many exams in our life, and get the results as per our preparation for that exams. But most of the exams we have option, whether to attempt it or not? But there is one exam in our life which we may ignore saying we will see when it would come in our life, but we all have to attempt we don't have any choice, whether we are poor,  rich,  educated or illiterate. Srila Prabhupada used to say, this life is our preparation how we are preparing our-self for coming exam.  Because that exam has no prior time table, no time period, no grace marks, and no cheat sheet allowed. And you may be surprise to know, all our activities are recorded by Yamduta for our each and every moments with evidence. Yes, Yamduta will show your answer sheet and you can review it, whether he has marked you in correct way or not? You are successful, if you are passed your exams but if you are failed then you don't know when you will have to reattempt that exam (it could be after 84 laces bir

Depression vs Satisfaction

There are two types of people live in this world, one who live a satisfied life and one who goes into depression when something goes wrong in their life. A satisfied person can stay happy all the time in any circumstances but a person who looks for sense pleasure and thinks sense objects is going to give happiness to me always goes into depression, if he does not get pleasure from an objects or person. And the secret of satisfactions is to see opportunity in every aspects whether it is success or failure. Many of us become happy when we get success but become sad when failure comes in our life. We must remember one thing, in our life success and failure is not going to stay forever with anyone. A very successful person has to face even failure sometimes in his life. A satisfied person knows it very well, that is why he does not goes in to depression for his failure but he learn from it and move on. A very beautiful quotes by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, "Don't read success stories, yo

Be Humble - Time can change everything

When we get name, fame and power we puffed by the false ego and become arrogant to the people and think no one is greater than me. But our history says, who were arrogant, time has collapsed all of them. None of us can say, I can beat the time and can go against it. We all are under control of Time as Lord Krishna has already stated in the Bhagwad Gita (I am the time and eveything is under my control). But due to our false ego we do not accept this fact become arrogant with other people instead of becoming humble with them. Who was "King of Good times" now became "King of bad times", so easily we can understand time make us King or Beggar. So we should be always being humble with the people in our Good times and take blessings from them for our bad times, but we do exactly opposite of it, we become arrogant in Good times and seek for blessings in our bad times. But what is the use of it, when you hurt someone, you lose sympathy from that person's heart.
