Responsibility - the seed of transformation

There were five students in a college they all were very much closed to their professor and professor was also very much impressed by all of them.

One very fine day professor called all of them and asked, I am going to be old now and I need one of you to help me in my daily activities, who will come for it?

Everyone was looking to each others and it was very silent but after a minute one student stood and told to professor, "Sir, I am ready to serve you please give me chance."

Professor smiled and told, But do you know it is a big responsibility on you, think twice before accepting it.

Student silently smiled and said to professor, "My dear professor till now you took our responsibility other wise we were nothing and now it's our time to take your responsibility."

My dear son, I was looking for the person who can take care of my position after me and you are the one I am very proud on you, professor said.

Rest four was feeling ashamed and they were thinking how big mistake we done by losing this golden opportunity.

Sometimes we think taking responsibility means taking a burden on head but when we take responsibility we become humble and learned because a responsible person has to go though so many obstacles and then it is the transformation of his life.

If one wants to transform his life, he must take responsibility. Without responsibility there is no life either he is a student, house holder, businessman or whatever.

A student has his responsibility to study honestly, obey his parent. A householder has his responsibility to take care of his family nicely and give them spiritual as well as material both the education. A businessman has his responsibility to run his business with morality.


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...
