How to discover purpose of our life?


We all are centered on something; some people keep money in center and if money goes up, they make themselves happy and if it goes down make them miserable. Some keep relationship in center and the same thing happen if it goes deeper, they become happy and if it breaks then they become miserable.

In today’s world everyone is moving so fast that they don't know where exactly they are going? If someone ask them the Goal of their life, they don't know what they want in their life?

So basically, today we are going to discuss about "Purpose of our life" and how to discover it?

Either you are man/woman, student/employee, Indian/Foreigner, Rich/Poor but one thing we all are seeking for is Happiness. And finally, we want it eternal.

One day I met one boy while distributing Bhagwat Gita and I asked him, what you do? He told me; I am doing job at Call Center. I asked him what is the aim of your life? He replied me, to make money and fulfill our requirements. I asked him to do you think, money will give you happiness for all time. He told me yes why not?

So, I asked him, can you give me any name which you know is very rich and happy? He scratched his head for some moment and told me so what you mean to say who has money is not happy?

I told him, No! I have never told like that. A happy person can have money, but money cannot make a person happy. So please understand this concept properly otherwise richest person would be the happiest person in this world but it is not like so.

First of all, we must understand it properly that objects can never give us happiness instead it gives us pain when it will go away. If our purpose of life is to just accumulate money, collects objects and trying to be happy then I am sorry to say but life will be more miserable.

So, let us not focus on objects but keep our focus on to be happy in any circumstances  with or without objects, do no make yourself conditional. Our life is not just made for only to give sense pleasure but to know the real purpose of it. Until and unless we will try to know the real purpose of life, we will never be happy.

So instead of being selfish be selfless, instead of demanding love give love to others, instead of finding fault in others be mentor and instead of loving body love Soul and this way you will definitely find the real purpose of life.

And till then we will not understand, we are not the body but soul we can not make ourselves happy. And once we get to know that our half of the problems get solved automatically.

So our purpose of life should be know who we are?  And how can we make ourselves happy? And that is the main purpose of any human being.

Thank you very much. Please share your feedback/comments.

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

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.

A visit to GEV

Srila Prabhupada was very much concerned about modern life style and he always used to tell his disciples, only building temples are not enough to live a pure Krishna Conscious way of life along with it we must follow our Vedic Culture and in our Vedic Culture we were fully dependent on Cows and Lands but in modern age we have rejected both and result we are not getting healthy foods and milk products. So we have to build Farm Communities where we can live a healthy life and in minimum amount of time we can produce grains, vegetables, fruits and milk products etc. and rest of the time they can do their devotional service. Milk and Grains can not be produced in factories and for this we require Cows and Lands. Govardhan Ecovillage is a project of International Society for Krishna Consciousness. The project is owned and managed by ISKCON Wada, Maharashtra. It is the result of an ardent desire of H.H.Radhanath Swami Maharaj to fulfill the dream of his beloved guru, His Divine
