The Power of criticism

Most of the time we see when two people meet with each other, they talk very less about themselves but they talk more about third person and start criticizing that person.

Knowingly or unknowingly we do not only do sins which is very dangerous and can make our life miserable but lose our accumulated pious karma also.

In Srimad Bhagwatam 10.74.40 it is mentioned that one person should immediately leave the place where criticism is going on;

निन्दां भगवत: श‍ृण्वंस्तत्परस्य जनस्य वा ।

ततो नापैति य: सोऽपि यात्यध: सुकृताच्च्युत: ॥ 10.74.40 ॥ 

Anyone who fails to immediately leave the place where he hears criticism of the Supreme Lord or His faithful devotee will certainly fall down, bereft of his pious credit.

There was a pious king who invited Brahmanas for food and king told his own Brahmanas to cook delicious food for them. When Brahmanas were cooking foods for their guest Brahmanas,.

There was an eagle flying on sky with snake holding on his beak, when snake try to bite eagle and poison spread and mixed in cooked food.

When Brahmanas took foods, after some time they all died. When this matter reached to Yamloka, they were all in tension whom to punish for this act? Because King is a very pious and there is no fault, Brahmana who were cooking food were also in no fault, eagle was taking it's food so it was no fault and snake was trying to protect so there is no fault from his side also.

After that, Yamduta was looking for whom to punish and they saw few people were criticizing King as he kill people by giving poison in food and they immediately decided the culprit.

Moral of the story is when we criticize other's we do very big sin against that person. And that is the reason we can not progress in our life due to that sins which we have accumulated through criticism.

Laxmana - The Hidden Hero of Ramayana

In our previous post we have already mentioned Ramayna is not an ordinary story but a complete learning lesson from each & every characters. Laxmana is one of the character of Ramayana, who was completely hide himself to glorify from others, and away from honor and dishonor. Laxmana teaches us how to maintain character, competency, selfless service, and equal in both the situation either you are praised or you are abused. If you have fixed your aim, then there is no question of disturbance what people say to you.

Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...

Learning Lessons from Mother Sumitra

In this world mother and child relationship is above all the relations. The foremost responsibility of a mother is to place her child in a proper Krishna Consciousness environment by which he/she becomes pure devotee of the Lord. Often mothers blame for their children, they are not behaving well and they don't respect them at all but the reason behind this is how much we are doing for them. Being a parent means to sacrifice for children. In modern age mother has no time to care of her children and think they can give all kinds of facilities by just giving money. And when the child grows up and by the time he/she do not get the association of mother and teachings they become free to do what they want to do. Mother means to care for her children what they need and give love and teach them how to love and respect others.
