How can I get rid of from bad habit?

There is nothing surprising in it if someone has some bad habit, everyone has some bad habit, there is saying, "habit is our second nature."

If one keep following their habits continuously then it become nature after sometime, some has electronics gadgets addiction, some has bad association, some has intoxication habits and there are many more types of it.

Here are we are going to discuss about how can we change our habit from bad to good and good to better and better to best. As many of the times we have mentioned Bhagwad Gita has each and every solution of our daily problems. So how can we change our habit is also mentioned in Bhagwad Gita 2.59 as Lord Krishna says,

विषया विनिवर्तन्ते निराहारस्य देहिनः ।

रसवर्जं रसोऽप्यस्य परं दृष्ट्वा निवर्तते ॥ 2.59 ॥

Though the embodied soul may be restricted from sense enjoyment, the taste for sense objects remains. But, ceasing such engagements by experiencing a higher taste, he is fixed in consciousness.

In this verse Lord Krishna explains about one needs enjoyment through his senses but if he get better alternative (higher taste) definitely he leave the old one. Same way we are getting some enjoyment from something or someone but we have not tasted the higher enjoyment that is why we are not letting the old things go.

If a person has habit of eating sugar but one day if he get taste of honey, surely he will never taste sugar again because he got the higher taster from sugar in honey.

Here are few things we need to maintain at least for 21 days:

1. Don't sit idle, engage your mind something productive work like keep help of your parents/teacher or society.

2. Make a time period of your smart phone, i.e. I Will only keep my phone with me only for 3 Hours in a day (or even less than that).

3. I will not keep association of that people whom I never get good lesson but only bad things (Don't break relationship with them but keep distance with them)

4. Try to spend quality time with your family.

5. Spend some times with nature, see how beautiful nature created by God and take 3 times deep breathe.

6. Keep your phone switch off one hour before going to sleep, read some Vedic scriptures like Bhagwad Gita, Ramayana, moral stories book before sleep.

7. Pray to Krishna, "Oh Krishna, I am trying my best to get out of my bad habits but I am not able to do it without your help, please help me.

If you genuinely follow above steps, I am hundred percent sure after few days you will see changes within you.

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 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 ...
