Are we progressing in Right Direction?

Ajay a college student now become a graduate and searching for job luckily he got job in reputed company.  He is now feeling glad and his parent too for his success and after few years he bought new car from his savings.

Ajay got promotion and become general manager in his company after few years, now his friends and family think he is progressing in his career and he is completely settled now.

But one late night when Ajay came to home and he is fully drunk and fall down on ground while coming out from his car, after hearing the sound of noise his parent come out to check what happens?

They see Ajay is completely unconscious and bleeding from his head , their parent call doctor immediately. 

Doctor come and see Ajay's condition and inform their parent personally, it will take lots of time to recover him due to more alcohols and smoke his kidney and lever are damaged and he may get brain stroke in future, so you must care him.

His parent become shocked after hearing this, they thought his son is progressing in his life and career but now truth is completely different, now they thought they did not check the parameter of progress in which direction his son is progressing.

Friends, this is not the case of only Ajay, now more in corporate world we only see good salary, good position, reputed organization but after working there we get into bad habits like smoking, drinking, meat eating, illicit sex and gambling.

Most of us thinks what's wrong by doing all these things as this is demand of today's situation, there is nothing wrong in it, but once we get addicted of all these we harm not only to our wealth, health but character also.

As it is said, once wealth is gone nothing is gone, health is gone something is gone but character is gone then everything is gone.

In the name of progress we completely forgot our culture and accepted the culture which is leading to animalistic life.

We have big car, big bungalow and we have enough bank balance to enjoy there is nothing wrong in it, but always ask from yourself are we progressing in right direction or wrong direction?


Hare Krishna!

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 ...

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...

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...
