Our problems seems very big in compare to others

Problems in our life is never going to be away forever, it only change it forms. But going away from the problem is not the permanent solution, there is a saying, solution comes before the problem.

But often we lose our patience and give up, thinking we can never solve this.

In this world no one is free from problems, but often we compare our problems to others, how good that person is and how poor I am? He has no problem in his life, but I have a lot of problems, I am so miserable, unfortunate.

There is a very short but a meaning full story. There was a person always used to complain to God, Oh God! you have given me so much problems in my life, I am the only person who has that much problems and no one else in the whole world.

I am very much tired, I want to give up my life, what is the purpose of living if I have to suffer so much.

God replied in his dream, my dear son, I have a plan for you, when you wake up in the morning go to the tree in your garden and there are so many bundles hanging on the branches of the tree and that is full of problems of other people.

Which bundle you think suitable for you, you can exchange yours from that.

Person becomes so happy and when he woke up in morning he went to the tree and saw yes that bundles are already there. He opened one small bundles and saw number of problems was less but problems were too big he immediately closed and opened next one and finally he accepted no bundle is there with problems which has smaller than it's own.

He started thanking to God, sorry I think the problem which you have given to me is very much comfortable for me instead of others because I am not capable to handle others problems.

Moral of the story is, never compare your own problems to others, every individual has their unique problem and God has given us the power to solve each of it have patience, faith and determination.

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
