More than anything in your life humility is very much important

There was one person who earned lot of money and position in his life. After having so much money, power and position in his life he got puffed up with false ego.

He started disrespecting to old people, children and poor people. One day he declared I have lot of money but due these people I can not live my life peacefully. I want these people to move somewhere else so I can enjoy my life without any interruption.

By his order all old people, children and poor people immediately left that place to another.

One day while he was travelling through that place he suddenly he felt thirsty and he got down from his horse and started searching for water near by.

He saw there is a cottage, he entered into it and asked for water and that old man gave him water.

After drinking the water, when he saw that old man he got surprised, he was none other than his own citizen.

He felt very much sorry, he asked that person, I insulted you people and thrown out from your place, then also you gave me water and quench my thirst.

That old man told to that man, my dear son, you never know the future what is going to happen? Anything can happen in your life, so humility is very much important to live a blissful life.

That person got full conviction, anything and any moment can turn your life, so one should always be humble, not puffed up with the situation.

In Ramayana none other than Hanuman Ji is favorite to Lord Rama, it's not just because of his power and strength. There were more powerful person associated with Lord Rama but Hanuman Ji won heart of Lord Rama from his humility.

Life is very short, nothing is going to be permanent with us, what we think and feel proud is just a matter of only fraction of time. If we are humble in any situation then we keep impression in heart of everyone.

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
