Destiny is more powerful than our efforts

It is said that, What you sow, shall yo reap. and our Karma decides our destiny, that is why our scriptures strictly warn us not to do such activities which lead us towards bad karma.

And once we accumulate our Karma our destiny is fixed, no one can change it.

When the Mahabharta war was ended and Lord Krishna was going to Dwarka on the way to Dwarka Lord Krishna met to a sage named Udanka.

King greeted Krishna and asked for welfare of others, My dear Lord is everything is all right?

Lord Krishna replied, yes! everything is alright but one thing the war of Mahabharta took place and many people died in it.

Sage Udanka asked, But my dear Lord if you wish you could have been stooped such a huge loss of human being. How many people died in the war?

Lord Krishna replied, Only 12 men survived and War lasted for eighteen days.

5 Pandvas, Ashwathama, Kripacharya, Vrishaketu , Yuvutsu , Satyaki , Kritivan and Me.

There were 7 Akshaunis armies from Pandvas side and 11 Akshaunis armies from Kauvas side

There were total 18 Akshaunis armies fought in Mahabharta war.

Lord Krishna smiled and told, My dear sage do you think I did not try rather I tried many times to Dhritrashtra and Duryodhna not to have war just to pacify our own ego. I sent so many messages to the King Dhritrashtra by Udhava, Vidur even I personally went as a messenger to not to have war, but these people refused to accept my suggestion.

Finally I understood, destiny is very powerful and in their destiny war is already decided.

Chose your every action very wisely to make sure you are going to have good destiny.

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
