How can we repay our gratitude towards others?

People now a days forgot our basic etiquette which we were used to follow in our old days. We are getting modern day by day and forgetting our own culture which were taught by parent in old days.

One things required while copying others, and that is intelligence. We copied foreign culture but didn't apply our intelligence what to copy from them?

In their culture their is no such things called etiquette, they calculate everything just by their own need. If their requirement got fulfilled you are nothing for them. But in our culture, we see from our Vedic Scriptures there are so many people who had sacrificed their life for others without any condition.

We can repay our gratitude towards others in following way:

1. By Sweet Words: If we don't have anything to give that person then one thing we must have is our sweet words. If simply we say, thanks to that person for his help he will be pleased by our sweet words.

2.By showing Gratitude: If a person has done something for you in past, we should never forget and always show our gratitude towards him.

3.By Inviting at home: If you are capable to invite that person then you must invite that person at your home and welcome him with food and comfort.

4. By always in touch with him: There is one very important thing is once a person has done something for you and if you remember him occasionally. He must be pleased by your remembrance.

5. By Gifts: Last but not the least, if we gift someone, that person can think there is a place for him in your heart and he will be pleased by your gift. It does not matter whether your gift is cheap or too costly.

So, if we pay our gratitude towards others the God residing inside other person heart will be pleased by your gratitude and you will get so much blessings from that person.

Making others happy, make yourself happy.

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

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
