Shivaji Maharaj - The real Singham

Shivaji Maharaj who not only protected our Vedic Santana Dharma but  taught us how to live in this world by accepting Vedic principles from his own example.

It is said that quality of Shivaji Maharaj was divine from his childhood because of his mother Jijabai. His mother used to taught him Mahabharat, Ramayana and Gita from his childhood and when Shivaji Maharaj started growing he developed all good qualities of a pure devotee.

He was brave like Maharana Pratap and intelligent like Chankya Pandit, he was not only powerful but very humble, compassionate, honest and protector of all.

Our Santana Dharma can be protected by two ways, one by knowing Shashtra (Scriptures) and other by Shashtra (Weapon) and Brahmana can engage preaching scripture to the people and Khatriya has his duty to protect Brahmna by all bad people.

Shivaji Maharaj accepted Samartha Ramdas Swami as his guru and always ready to follow all his instructions for whole life and ruled kingdom by morality.

Aurangajeb was the greatest enemy of Shivaji and it was the time where Mughals were completely spread all over India and brutely rulling and destoryed all Vedic temples like Vrindavana and Kashi.

It was assumed by people, now there will be only rule of Mughals and complete destruction of Vedic Culture but it is mentioned in Bhagwad Gita, Lord Krishna will always protect Dharma and for that He sent to Shivaji.

Shivaji Maharaj was having one unique and very powerful quality and that was he was never sharing his secrecy of his intention, know one knows about his plan what he will do in next.

We are very fortunate that had Jewell like Shivaji Maharaj and if one can just follow his instructions in his life he always be successful.

A famous poet Kaviraj Bhushan has glorfied Shivajai Mahraj in his poem as;

इन्द्र जिमि जंभ पर, बाडब सुअंभ पर,

रावन सदंभ पर, रघुकुल राज हैं।

पौन बारिबाह पर, संभु रतिनाह पर,

ज्यौं सहस्रबाह पर राम-द्विजराज हैं॥

दावा द्रुम दंड पर, चीता मृगझुंड पर,

'भूषन वितुंड पर, जैसे मृगराज हैं।

तेज तम अंस पर, कान्ह जिमि कंस पर,

त्यौं मलिच्छ बंस पर, सेर शिवराज हैं॥


Jai Bhavani, Jai Shivaji!

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
