How to live a best life?

In today's world everyone looking for living a best life but their efforts are completely in the wrong directions, reason they are not able to find out the reason of living a best life.

To live a best life we require only two things, Happiness and Peace.

In Bhagwad Gita, Lord Krishna has explained about three modes of material nature:

Ignorance: person are confused, panic, lazy and sleepy.

Passion: In mode of passion people prefer to associate with opposite sex, and ambitions and greed are too much in their mind.

Goodness: In mode of Goodness, Wisdom and Happiness are the primary characteristics.

In mode of ignorance, person do not want to do anything but he just want everything to be ready made in his plate. That is the reason, he can never be happy.

In mode of passion, person want everything to be done by me, and if someone goes ahead from him he can never tolerate it. That is the reason, he can never be happy.

In mode of goodness, person want to his best, and if something goes wrong he tolerate it and try it again. And he always try to share his own thoughts and talents to others. That is the reason, he always keep himself and others happy.

In mode of goodness a person become calm, clear, creative and positive thinker. That is possible only when we keep our head cool.

Here are few example I am sharing from which we can easily understand:

Fox: Represents mode of Ignorance, Fox never try to get its own food but eat remain food of other animals & shows I am very smart.

Lion: Represents mode of Passion, It never try to get foods from other animals but try to get its own food.

Elephant: Represents mode of Goodness, It never worried about its foods but eat too much, it's huge, vegetarian and work with other animals and humans.

No one like the qualities of Fox and no one want to be with Lion but everyone want to be with Elephant.

If we develop our goodness qualities, we can also be favorable of each individuals.

If we share our happiness and joy with others in return we get more happiness and peace in our life.

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
