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!

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...
