Time and Tide wait for no Man

Once time is gone, we can never get back it by spending lots of money in return. That is why we see people who value their time, time values them.

In Srimad Bhagwatam Canto 2 Chapter 3 verse 17 it is very clearly mentioned, how time is valuable?

आयुर्हरति वै पुंसामुद्यन्नस्तं च यन्नसौ ।

तस्यर्ते यत्क्षणो नीत उत्तमश्लोकवार्तया ॥ 2.3.17 ॥

Both by rising and by setting, the sun decreases the duration of life of everyone, except one who utilizes the time by discussing topics of the all-good Personality of Godhead.

If in the human form of life we waste our time, we are loser and nothing more. An intelligent person never waste his single moment and only utilize it for good cause and that is devotional service.

In Srimad Bhagwatam King Khadwanga who accompanied with demigods against war with demons and when he heard about he has only 48 minutes left. 

Indra offered King Khadwanga to enjoy heavenly planets till his last breath how much he can, but King Khadwanga did not accept Indra's proposal instead he chose to come to earthly planet and engaged in devotional service.

And within that time he went to Lord's abode. So, we can see here if we utilize our time well then there is no question of our failure in our life. Otherwise we know that, Time and Tide wait for no Man.

Once time is gone, we can only think of it but never bring back.


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 lac...

Real meaning of Success

In today's world everyone is looking for success and for that by hook or by crook they want to achieve it. After getting that achievement they need more and more and if they do not get they become frustrated. And we see more of the so called successful people at some level they are not able to tolerate the failure and end up their life. So, here we are going to discuss, what is the real meaning of success? First of all we must understand, Success is not a destination but a journey. In our life we may consider anything of success, but it means opportunity to implore our self more. Definition of success changed as per our situation and time as a child, think I will be successful if I get good marks in my exam and the same child after getting good marks started thinking I will be successful if I get a good job. So we can see it is not fixed at some point we think if we get that thing I may be successful but after getting it into our definition of success got changed. Success is...
