Globalization Or Localisation?

Modern age people think globalization is very important to live a happy and peaceful life but one thing they forgot globalization only encourage us to gratify our senses more and more.
In those days people were satisfied and happy even they were living without electricity, multiplex, high-speed cars, big restaurants etc. Because they were internally satisfied and never looking for external sanctification or sense gratification.

Globalization given us more chance to gratify our senses if we lack it from our local resources and that is the reason we are spending more money to maintain our living standards.

If we see Lord Rama even was capable to rule over Lanka but he never accepted instead he was living a happy and peaceful life in Ayodhya only. We can learn from it why Lord Rama did so? Are we think we are more intelligent than Lord Rama?

Corona Virus is the result of Globalization and why not we must accept it, because if we accept international things so much, then this virus is also international and we must welcome it.

Now no-one is going to Pizza, multiplex, foreign trip but sitting at home and eating only daal-rice. We never hesitate to give tip of 500 Rs to waiter but buying vegetables from street we bargain for 5 rupees but they are not selling fruits and vegetables to make more business rather to earn for their daily bread and butter.

Actually we need Localization instead of Globalization. We underestimated our local resources and started thinking of international markets. We have everything to live a happy and peaceful life from our natural resources.

The material nature is complete because it comes from God, Krishna. So all facilities for living happily are present in all parts of the world. Unnecessarily transporting a thing from one region to another creates chaos. For this, mankind has to work hard. This world can’t advance more than that set by Krishna. Any attempt to advance it will create issues like terrorism, wars, epidemic etc. Food, construction material, water, medicines, clothing facility are all available in all parts of the world based on the needs of that environment. What is the need to transport things from one part of the world to another? That just makes such diseases transmit quickly.

Srila Prabhupada said “We are creating a civilization which is very painful, but we are thinking that we are advanced. This is illusion. We are simply creating problems, and still we are thinking that we are advanced”.

I request everyone please think of Localization instead of Globalization and live a happy and peaceful life.

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
