What is your perspective on life?

There is a great saying, "Your perspective on life comes from the cage you were held captive in."

Our perspective on life is based on our previous incident, it may be good or bad or both. If a person has good things in his past he lives his life accordingly and if something went wrong he always keep a positive hope, everything will be alright.

Same way if a person has bad experience in his past he always keep himself in fear and worried about his future, nothing is going to be right in my life.

Basically both the experience comes from our pattern which we have already experienced in our past and set in our mind, and it never allow us to go beyond it.

There is a very practical example from which we can learn from how this thing works. When a baby elephant born it is tied with a thin rope and when he try to jump he fell down and gradually when it grows he has the same feeling in his mind, If I jump I will fall down and this way he easily bound by thin rope.

If we see the elephant is not a baby now it become adult and he can break the small rope very easily but a pattern has been set in his mind I can never break this rope from his childhood and that is the reason he never tried in his adulthood also.

Sometimes one may fail in his exam or career so he keep thinking I can not do anything in life and he always carry a pattern in his mind where his mind always tells him, you can not do anything. result he give up everything.

So, what is the solution for it, how do we overcome from this?

The best way to come out of this tragic situation is to do some regular exercise, keep association with positive minded people, chant some Vedic mantras regularly, reading of Vedic scriptures, remembering and making notes of few good things which you have done in past.

As Lord Krishna says in Bhagwad Gita, Mind is our best friend and worst enemy, if we control our mind then it is our best friend and if our mind control us the n it is our worst enemy.

Changing our pattern of mind will change our life. Keep your worries aside and start now to think of a bright future there is always a new hope with new day.

Let's this Diwali come up with new resolution to convert your bad habits into good and grab the new opportunity to make your life successful.

Hare Krishna! Happy Diwali!

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
