Life's problems are like holding the Glass

In classroom Professor asked to his students, "Can you guess weight of this glass?"
Student replied, "It may be 100 gms."
Professor replied, "That's good". and what if I hold it for an hour?
Student replied, "Sir, you feel little pain in your hand."
Professor replied, "That's true". and what if I hold it for whole day?
Student replied, "Sir, it will freeze your hand and you feel more pain."

Professor asked, "But do you think weight of the glass got change during this time of process?

Student replied, "No Sir, weight of the glass is still same."

Then what was the cause of pain in my hand as the weight of the glass was remain same? Professor asked?

There were no answer in whole class.

Professor told to the students, "My dear students, weight of the glass is still same but the reason behind my pain is I was holding the glass for long time and if I keep it down I can feel relax."

Our life problems are exactly the same, if we hold our problems for an hour it will disturb us little but if we hold it for a day it will disturb little more and if we hold it for days then we goes into depression and this way we won't be able to do anything.

It is important to think of the challenges or problems in our life, But even more important is to put them down at the end of every day before we go to sleep.

So, when we start our next day we can think from our fresh mind without holding glass of problems from our previous day.

Life is full of problems and everyone has to face it but thinking on the same problem will not give us the solution instead keep your head cool and take it easy. Problems are not going to go away from your life it's part of our life, if you solve one there are many in the que.

In Bhagwad Gita Chapter 8.15 Lord Krishna has already declared about this world and its problems.

मामुपेत्य पुनर्जन्म दु:खालयमशाश्वतम् ।
नाप्‍नुवन्ति महात्मान: संसिद्धिं परमां गता: ॥ १५ ॥

After attaining Me, the great souls, who are yogīs in devotion, never return to this temporary world, which is full of miseries, because they have attained the highest perfection.

Laxmana - The Hidden Hero of Ramayana

In our previous post we have already mentioned Ramayna is not an ordinary story but a complete learning lesson from each & every characters. Laxmana is one of the character of Ramayana, who was completely hide himself to glorify from others, and away from honor and dishonor. Laxmana teaches us how to maintain character, competency, selfless service, and equal in both the situation either you are praised or you are abused. If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you. But when we get into the deep of Ramayana and see the value of Laxmana, We see he was the hero after Lord Rama in the whole story. Laxmana represents  who carry out Laxmi with him and serve Lord Rama by his good will. Laxmana always eager to serve Lord Rama, when Lord Rama was about to go for exile for fourteen years Laxmana immediately stood up & ready to go along with Lord Rama although he was not asked to go to exile. Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...

Learning Lessons from Mother Sumitra

In this world mother and child relationship is above all the relations. The foremost responsibility of a mother is to place her child in a proper Krishna Consciousness environment by which he/she becomes pure devotee of the Lord. Often mothers blame for their children, they are not behaving well and they don't respect them at all but the reason behind this is how much we are doing for them. Being a parent means to sacrifice for children. In modern age mother has no time to care of her children and think they can give all kinds of facilities by just giving money. And when the child grows up and by the time he/she do not get the association of mother and teachings they become free to do what they want to do. Mother means to care for her children what they need and give love and teach them how to love and respect others. And if we think we just send our children to schools/colleges and they will be perfect in all so they cannot. Its the duty of the mother to give valuable time ...

TIT for TAT OR Tolerate That

Many of the times we go through situations where we get confused what to do now? According to our Vedic Scriptures we should keep three things in our mind and accordingly react or respond on situations. If you can change it: Situations comes in your life or brought by some people and you know if it is completely against our religious principle, then you must stand against it and try to change the situations. When Hauman Ji reached in Lanka and Lankini the guard of Lanka tried to stop Him and because it was against the religious principle as his own master kidnapped others wife, Hanuman Ji punched on her mouth by His left hand and move on. Same way if you have power and know things are going against Dharma, you should change the situations else you have to suffer sinful reactions of it. If you can not change it: Sometimes situations are completely against us and we are not even able to change it then that time we must accept the situation and try to tolerate it.  You don't believe...
