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".

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.

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 lac...

Real meaning of Success

In today's world everyone is looking for success and for that by hook or by crook they want to achieve it. After getting that achievement they need more and more and if they do not get they become frustrated. And we see more of the so called successful people at some level they are not able to tolerate the failure and end up their life. So, here we are going to discuss, what is the real meaning of success? First of all we must understand, Success is not a destination but a journey. In our life we may consider anything of success, but it means opportunity to implore our self more. Definition of success changed as per our situation and time as a child, think I will be successful if I get good marks in my exam and the same child after getting good marks started thinking I will be successful if I get a good job.
