What is the best way to learn & grow in our life?

There are two types of learning, one is professional way and other is Vedic Way. There is a lot of difference in both the knowledge, the professional knowledge is measured by exchange of our money. And Vedic knowledge is not measured by exchange of money but to serve and respect teacher and in return they teach what they heave learned from their master.

Now a days we are just exchanging knowledge from money and that is why neither Teacher nor Student get benefit of it. Teacher just give knowledge as much he get money from children, he does not bother whether children learn or not. 

Most of the child who learn from reputed schools/colleges they call their teachers by their names and once they finished their study they don't even recognize them.

But in our Vedic culture we respect our teacher and call them as Guru, that is why the knowledge they provides directly goes inside our heart and exist forever.

In Srimad Bhagwad Gita 4.34 and in Srimad Bhagwatam 4.5.1 it is mentioned that, if you want to learn something from someone then accept them as a Guru and serve them, respect then then in return they will open their heart to teach you in appropriate way.

तद्विद्धि प्रणिपातेन परिप्रश्न‍ेन सेवया ।

उपदेक्ष्यन्ति ते ज्ञानं ज्ञानिनस्तत्त्वदर्शिनः ॥ 4.34 ॥

Just try to learn the truth by approaching a spiritual master. Inquire from him submissively and render service unto him. The self-realized souls can impart knowledge unto you because they have seen the truth.

Most of the time student complaints, we don't have a right teacher but if you are trying to be a right student then there is always a right teacher for you.

Please feel free to share your feedback/comments.


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
