Bhishma Panchak-Devotion towards Krishna from Bhismadeva.

It is mentioned in all Vedic scriptures Kartik is the holiest month in all and who offer ghee lamp to Lord Damodar receive pure devotions from Lord KRISHNA.

The last 5 days of the month of Kartik are traditionally known as the Bhishma Panchaka.

It is considered Grandfather of Kurus Bhismadeva fasted for these five days, preparing to give up his life.

It is also mentioned Bhishmadeva observed the fast which is very difficult to a normal human beings.

He only are cow products in all five days. First day he ate only cow dung then cow urine, Panchamitra and finally cow made products.

Although Bhishmadeva was booned by his own desired death but he promised he will leave his body when Lord Krishna will be infront of him.

Bhishmadeva was a very pious and great devotee of Lord, only a great devotee of Lord can suffer that much pain as he suffered so much pain on arrow bed from Arjuna.

But he didn't say to Krishna, why I am suffering?

He already knew it, it is Krishna's plan and whatever He does it will always good for me.

Bhishmadeva was a very scholar and a great king, he taught Pandvas duty of a King.

Let remember Bhishmadeva and offer prayers towards him to give devotion to us and always our heart beat remembering Krishna.

Hare Krishna.

Laxmana - The Hidden Hero of Ramayana

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. Laxmana teaches us how to maintain character, competency, selfless service, and equal in both the situation either you are praised or you are abused. If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you. But when we get into the deep of Ramayana and see the value of Laxmana, We see he was the hero after Lord Rama in the whole story. Laxmana represents who carry out Laxmi with him and serve Lord Rama by his good will. Laxmana always eager to serve Lord Rama, when Lord Rama was about to go for exile for fourteen years Laxmana immediately stood up & ready to go along with Lord Rama although he was not asked to go to exile. Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...

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 ...

TIT for TAT OR Tolerate That

Many of the times we go through situations where we get confused what to do now? According to our Vedic Scriptures we should keep three things in our mind and accordingly react or respond on situations. If you can change it: Situations comes in your life or brought by some people and you know if it is completely against our religious principle, then you must stand against it and try to change the situations. When Hauman Ji reached in Lanka and Lankini the guard of Lanka tried to stop Him and because it was against the religious principle as his own master kidnapped others wife, Hanuman Ji punched on her mouth by His left hand and move on. Same way if you have power and know things are going against Dharma, you should change the situations else you have to suffer sinful reactions of it. If you can not change it: Sometimes situations are completely against us and we are not even able to change it then that time we must accept the situation and try to tolerate it. You don't believe...
