Happy Guru Purnima

Guru means who transform our heart from ignorance with true knowledge. Finding a Guru is a very difficult task, it is said that when Lord becomes pleased and see a real seeker is searching for true Guru, He send Guru in our life.

When Guru enters in our life, we become enlighten by true knowledge just by the mercy of our Spiritual master. By serving the Guru we can progress in our life and can reach very soon at advanced stage.

We can serve our Guru by two ways, by following their instructions and by serving them physically. But it is better to serve our Guru by following their instructions whole life instead of serving physically (because it may not be possible for every individual).

But in modern world we see, people who get some material knowledge or learn some technology accept their teacher as Guru and that is not even wrong but the real Guru is who teaches us the knowledge from which we can get rid of birth and death cycle.

In old days there was no such difference in Teacher and Guru because they used to teach both the knowledge to their disciples material as well as spiritual, that is why calling Guru to them was very suitable but in modern era we only get material knowledge from our school or college teachers that is why we need to find the real Guru in our life who can teach us the real value of our life.

On the holy occasion of Guru Purnima we put our obeisances on the lotus feet of our spiritual master and seek mercy from them, on this auspicious day Vyasdeva (incarnation of Lord Krishna) who composed Vedic scriptures to the human society for their welfare.

On this holy day I would like to thanks every individual who contributed their life making our life successful and taught good lessons to utilize in our life to get success in our spiritual path.

गुरुर्ब्रह्मा गुरुर्विष्णु गुरुर्देवो महेश्वरा

गुरुर्साक्षात परब्रह्म तस्मै श्री गुरवे नमः।



Wish you all a very happy Guru Purnima.

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
