Every Pleasure has a seed of Suffering

The moment we think of pleasure in our mind we invite so many troubles in our life knowingly, because pleasure do not come alone but it comes along with its partner suffering.

Believe it or not we suffer more than we try to enjoy in our life. I share with you one story, how we get suffering rather than enjoy. 

There was a poor lady she used to work in a house of a rich man. It was her daily routine to work and come back to home and she was doing her duty very honestly since very long time. One day when she was cleaning bed of her master suddenly her hand felt very much soft feeling and she thought how the person would be sleeping on this bed peacefully, because she was sleeping on floor and she never had experience of sleeping on soft cushion bed. But she immediately moved her hand from bed out of fear.

One day when her master was not there at home, she got chance to sit on that bed and when she sits on it she felt let's have little rest and she fall sleep.

After few hours when her master come back and went inside he saw that lady is sleeping on his bed, he got very angry and started shouting on her, "how dare you to sleep on my bed and started beating her."

That lady when come to her consciousness, she started laughing. Seeing this his master asked, I am beating you and you are laughing, tell me the reason why?

That lady told, my dear master I am laughing because I slept only for few hours and I got that much suffering instead of enjoy but you are sleeping since long then how much suffering yours will be?

Moral of the story is, Every enjoyment comes along with sufferings.

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 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...
