Four types of people take shelter of Krishna

In this world people take shelter to many authority but who is little intelligent and understand the real process of shelter take shelter of Lord Krishna as Lord Krishna has already stated in Bhagwad Gita:

चतुर्विधा भजन्ते मां जना: सुकृतिनोऽर्जुन ।

आर्तो जिज्ञासुरर्थार्थी ज्ञानी च भरतर्षभ ॥ 7.16 ॥

O best among the Bhāratas, four kinds of pious men begin to render devotional service unto Me – the distressed, the desire of wealth, the inquisitive, and he who is searching for knowledge of the Absolute.

These four types of people are: 

Distressed: Who are in trouble and thinks no one can help them to get out of that situation take shelter of Krishna. For example when Draupadi saw Pandavas are unable to help her from being harassed by Dusashan she immediately took shelter of Lord Krishna. 

Desirer: Who need some material benefits, When Dhruva Maharaja got insult from her mother, he desires to achieve more than wealth from Lord Brahma and went to forest for penance. He ruled for 36, 000 years on earth and got his own abode Dhruva loka.

Inquisitive: Who want to get esquire about the true knowledge from the real source (authorized master). In Namisharana when 88, 000 sages gathered together they wanted to enquire about the Lord and they accepted Suta Gowswami as their master.

Absolute Truth: Who want to know the absolute truth, when King Parikshit got cursed by Rishi Shringi, he will  die within seven days by snake bite. He did not worry about his life but he immediately went to search for absolute truth and by the mercy of Lord he met Shukdeva Goswami.

So, here we can see these are the category who take shelter of Krishna, so whatever category we fit in we must take shelter of Krishna instead of taking anywhere else. Because Krishna can only give us the assurance to protect from all the miseries.

Hare Krishna.

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...

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 ...
