How can we create the difference from other living entities?

As we know from our Vedic Scriptures there are 8.4 million species and humans are the top on all. But the same way, it is also mentioned in Srimad Bhagwatam if in human form live which is very precious in all and live like animals only do for kind of activities i.e. eating, sleeping, mating and defending then where we are intelligent than other living entities?

In Srimad Bhagwatam 2.3.18, it is mentioned:

तरव: किं न जीवन्ति भस्त्रा: किं न श्वसन्त्युत ।

न खादन्ति न मेहन्ति किं ग्रामे पशवोऽपरे ॥ 2.3.18 ॥

Do the trees not live? Do the bellows of the blacksmith not breathe? All around us, do the beasts not eat and discharge semen?

Modern Civilizations  are think of only four things (Eating, Sleeping, Mating & Defending), they have no information of next life. They only think, this is the only life, enjoy how much we can enjoy.

From morning to night, people only think of their enjoyment, what best can I eat? How comfortable can I sleep? How best can I met with my partner? and How best can I protect myself from dangers?

But doing all above at our best, we should ask from ourself are we satisfied? And majority the answer will be, NO.

As per Srimad Bhagwatam, all these qualities are based on our bodily platform and there are one more important factor which is called soul in our body. 

But most of us are not aware of that because we are only taught about body not about our soul.

If we want to utilize our human form of life then we must esquire about the soul. And that inquiry will give us chance to liberate our-self from this bodily concept.

Hare Krishna!

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

Depression vs Satisfaction

There are two types of people live in this world, one who live a satisfied life and one who goes into depression when something goes wrong in their life. A satisfied person can stay happy all the time in any circumstances but a person who looks for sense pleasure and thinks sense objects is going to give happiness to me always goes into depression, if he does not get pleasure from an objects or person. And the secret of satisfactions is to see opportunity in every aspects whether it is success or failure. Many of us become happy when we get success but become sad when failure comes in our life. We must remember one thing, in our life success and failure is not going to stay forever with anyone. A very successful person has to face even failure sometimes in his life. A satisfied person knows it very well, that is why he does not goes in to depression for his failure but he learn from it and move on. A very beautiful quotes by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, "Don't read success stories, yo

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.
