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.

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. And if we think we just send our children to schools/colleges and they will be perfect in all so they cannot. Its the duty of the mother to give valuable time ...

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 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...

TIT for TAT OR Tolerate That

Many of the times we go through situations where we get confused what to do now? According to our Vedic Scriptures we should keep three things in our mind and accordingly react or respond on situations. If you can change it: Situations comes in your life or brought by some people and you know if it is completely against our religious principle, then you must stand against it and try to change the situations. When Hauman Ji reached in Lanka and Lankini the guard of Lanka tried to stop Him and because it was against the religious principle as his own master kidnapped others wife, Hanuman Ji punched on her mouth by His left hand and move on. Same way if you have power and know things are going against Dharma, you should change the situations else you have to suffer sinful reactions of it. If you can not change it: Sometimes situations are completely against us and we are not even able to change it then that time we must accept the situation and try to tolerate it. You don't believe...
