How Devotion save us from this life as well as in next life?

As stated in Srimad Bhagwad Gita chapter 2.40 by Lord Krishna to Arjuna the importance of little devotion, how can it save us from a great danger.

नेहाभिक्रमनाशोऽस्ति प्रत्यवायो न विद्यते ।

स्वल्पमप्यस्य धर्मस्य त्रायते महतो भयात् ॥ 2.40 ॥

In this endeavor there is no loss or diminution, and a little advancement on this path can protect one from the most dangerous type of fear.

We are not even aware of how powerful this is devotion towards Lord Krishna although if we do it nicely or not but it gives us the result as much as we do. But in material activities until and unless we do not reach at the end of the task we would not get the result out of it.

That is why in devotion we can live a happy & peaceful life in present as well in next life too.

How it save us in this life?

We see there are so many faults in this age of Kali everywhere there are fights, quarrel, anxiety, tension, greed, lust and so many bad things are there and how can one live peacefully in this surroundings? But if we take shelter of Lord Krishna - the supreme personality of Godhead and render devotional service towards Him we feel relaxed and peaceful reason is He is the ultimate shelter of all living being mentioned in every scriptures i.e. Srimad Bhagwad Gita, Bhagwatam and Ramayana.

How it save us in next life?

We know the story of Gajendra the powerful elephant when he was taking bath along with his companions suddenly a crocodile come and catch the feet of Gajendra. Gajendra seems to very powerful but he was unable to get out of the clutches from Crocodile and they fought around 1000 years.

Finally Gajendra tired and all his companion left him and he was hopeless and then all sudden he started praying to Lord Vishnu by chanting a beautiful prayers which he was learned from his past life as a king Indradumnya.

Lord Vishnu came sitting on His career Garuda and cut the neck of crocodile and saved Gajendra.

We can see here if we perform little devotional service towards Krishna, Krishna surely protect us from danger either in this life or in next life.

Hare Krishna!

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

Depression vs Satisfaction

There are two types of people live in this world, one who live a satisfied life and one who goes into depression when something goes wrong in their life. A satisfied person can stay happy all the time in any circumstances but a person who looks for sense pleasure and thinks sense objects is going to give happiness to me always goes into depression, if he does not get pleasure from an objects or person. And the secret of satisfactions is to see opportunity in every aspects whether it is success or failure. Many of us become happy when we get success but become sad when failure comes in our life. We must remember one thing, in our life success and failure is not going to stay forever with anyone. A very successful person has to face even failure sometimes in his life. A satisfied person knows it very well, that is why he does not goes in to depression for his failure but he learn from it and move on. A very beautiful quotes by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, "Don't read success stories, yo

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.
