How do we know what is better for me?

While Mahabharta war was about to start, Arjuna asked Lord Krishna to keep his chariot in middle of both the warriors, he wanted to see whom I am going to fight with.

But logically if we think of when the war is already declared then there is no question of seeing the opposite parties but here we can see one weakness of Arjuna and that is Indecision.

Arjuna was little confused should I fight or not, so now he is bewildered  and undecided he turned towards Krishna and expressed the feelings of his heart, “Oh Krishna!, I do not know what is better for me, I should fight with them or I should give up fighting and leave this battle field immediately.

Sometimes we also think, should I do this or should I not? and like Arjuna we are also in dilemma and in confusion most of the times we take wrong decision. So in this situation we must hear what Krishna suggest to Arjuna.

Although Arjuna give so many logic's not to fight with Kaurvas but all his logic was based on his own mind and body level and that was the reason he was also not satisfied from his own decision and finally he take shelter of Krishna.

कार्पण्यदोषोपहतस्वभावः

पृच्छामि त्वां धर्मसम्मूढचेताः ।

यच्छ्रेयः स्यान्निश्‍चितं ब्रूहि तन्मे

शिष्यस्तेऽहं शाधि मां त्वां प्रपन्नम् ॥ 2.7 ॥

Now I am confused about my duty and have lost all composure because of miserly weakness. In this condition I am asking You to tell me for certain what is best for me. Now I am Your disciple, and a soul surrendered unto You. Please instruct me.

So, if we really want to know what is better for me, then we must take shelter of Lord Krishna and Lord Krishna is still there in the form of Bhagwad Gita.

If we keep our little faith on Bhagwad Gita, Bhagwad Gita will reveal with you and guide you every steps in your life.

There are two things in our life, one we think is better for me (Preyas) and things really better for us (Shreyas).

A student thinks watching movies and playing game is better for me but their parent think instead of playing and watching movies study is better for him for his future. So, student think from his Preyas side but parent think from his Shreays side.

Hare Krishna!

Nectar in the beginning but Poison in end

He was young and belonging from rich family, he entered into the compartment and seated next to me.  Long and stylist hair, branded watch on wrist, iPhone in hand but he was loosing his control. Started abusing someone on phone and shouting out very louder, people was looking at him.  He was fully drunken and started vomiting, people thrown out him out of train and he slayed down at platform. Story is not over yet, I was thinking is this our modern education we are providing to our children and in the name of facilities we are giving them huge money, branded gadgets, but being an guarding do we ever try to esquire what they do and, which type of association they keep?  Once these things comes in their hands they start thinking, no one is greater than me and due to false ego they disrespect elder people.  But one thing they forget, disrespecting elder people only harmful to them because elderly people only teach them morality and good lesson. And being an elder person...

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. But when we get into the deep of Ramayana and see the value of Laxmana, We see he was the hero after Lord Rama in the whole story. Laxmana represents  who carry out Laxmi with him and serve Lord Rama by his good will. Laxmana always eager to serve Lord Rama, when Lord Rama was about to go for exile for fourteen years Laxmana immediately stood up & ready to go along with Lord Rama although he was not asked to go to exile. Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...
