The main Thing should always remain the main Thing

Most of us set our Goal and start working on it slowly-slowly to achieve that, but when we reach at some level we distract from our path and start doing something else. And that is the reason most of us failed to achieve our Goal and become failure.

There is a nice past times in the Srimad Bhagwatam first canto about the great sage Narada Muni, when his mother died, he left his home for self-realization under the direction of great sages.

Narada Muni was only 5 years old but he was fully determined about his Goal and when he left his home and went through forest he saw very beautiful places, rivers, gardens and hills but he stayed for some time and left because he always keep reminding himself, "Is it my ultimate Goal?"

After crossing rivers, forests he reached in a very beautiful city where he saw so much opulence and palaces, people requested Narada Muni to stay there as he was a little child but Narada Muni asked himself, "Is it my ultimate Goal?"

And he finally decided not to stay in that city and he left from there and finally he reach at one place where he started his austerity and Lord Vishnu appeared in front of Him and told, "My dear Narada, I am very much pleased with you and very soon you will be self-realized soul."

And finally everyone knows about Narada Muni a great devotee of Lord Narayana who can roam all the three worlds without any barrier and the only secret behind it was Narada Muni always kept Main thing remain the Main thing he never distracted from something else.

In the journey to achieve our Goal there are so many things comes in our way and we think these all are good for us and we started keeping busy our-self into that and forgot our main goal. Actually this is because of we are not sharping our intelligence and once our mind tell our intelligence it accept very easily because it has no power to say,  No to mind.

We must sharp our intelligence to differentiate what is right and what is wrong? because function of mind is to treat everything at same platform but strong intelligence can make difference into it.

We must understand the functions of all threes:

Senses: It always look for new things and if we do not keep it in our control it always distract from our main Goal. Our senses needs pleasure to enjoy and once it get it needs more and more. We can never fulfill the requirements of our senses.

Mind: Senses directly communicate to mind to tell accept the things without any hesitation whatever result should it be. Mind is restless and keep looking for it's engagement and it can not sit keep quiet.

Intelligence: Intelligence has the power to tell the mind Yes or No, whether to accept or reject but if Intelligence are weak then mind will rule over Intelligence. To make intelligence strong we must study our vedic scriptures where we can learn discrimination of Good and Bad.

So, if we want to achieve Goal of our life then we must remember, "The main thing should always remain the main thing".

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 ...

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.

If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you.
