Do your best and leave the rest on Krishna

Often we see some situations goes completely against us and that time our mind stop thinking and we become completely blank. This situations comes in every individual life and no can escape from it but and even most of the people can not tolerate it result they take some wrong steps in their life.

Here I am going to share you true story of my colleague who just gone through tough situation and I explained him, the concept behind "Do your best and leave the rest." because we are not the master and not each and everything under our control. But what we can do our best, we must and even if something goes wrong let it be, don't put extra effort on it and even don't think too much of it.

He told me about his situation, he was completely lost due to his laptop suddenly stopped working and he was supposed to finish his important task on that day. He tried his best but no luck, finally he thought if I could not finish my task today, I have to lose my job because already I have crossed my deadline and there was no hope from where he can take help of anyone due to this lock down situation.

He was fully upset called and asking me, "Where is your Krishna? Why he is doing this to me? I am finished now? Please help me if you can?

I told him just calm down, I know you are going through very tough situation but if you get disturbed, can you solve your problem? Krishna is always there with us, waiting to help us but don't ask ask help from Krishna otherwise He is definitely going to help you.

He told me nervously, my dear friend nothing is going to be alright as tomorrow morning I supposed to show my assignment but I am failed to do, how can everything is going to be alright?

I told him, sincerely pray to Krishna and go to sleep because it's already midnight we will see tomorrow, if you lose your job it may be Krishna's plan for you. Don't worry.

He called up early in next morning saying, "Your Krishna is really very naughty."

I asked him, "what happened now?

Laughingly he told me, "My laptop started working now, I don't know how it happened? But one thing I can see Krishna answered my prayers."

And finally I told him, Always remember, "Do your best and leave the rest on Krishna". Krishna is going to take care of everything what we can not.

Lord Krishna has already explained in Bhagwad Gita 3.30. If you surrender your work towards me, you won't be fearful because by surrender you know I am doing it for Krishna not for me.

मयि सर्वाणि कर्माणि सन्न्यस्याध्यात्मचेतसा ।
निराशीर्निर्ममो भूत्वा युध्यस्व विगतज्वरः ॥ 3.30॥

Therefore, O Arjuna, surrendering all your works unto Me, with full knowledge of Me, without desires for profit, with no claims to proprietorship, and free from lethargy, fight.

Please feel free to 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
