International Yoga Day 2022

Wishing you all a very happy International Yoga Day 2022. The word Yoga means (to add) and that means if one create connection with Lord is known to be an Yogi.

Yoga is actually invention of ancient Bharata and our sages used to do it for building the connection with God and it can be done through GyanYoga, KarmaYoga, DhyanYoga and BhaktiYoga.

But the actual meaning of Yoga has been changed over the period of time and people started using the term Yoga to build their health even that is also good but it is not the ultimate purposes of Yoga.

If one has a beautiful car and he cleans it every day and show it to everyone but he never go for drive then does he using the car properly? Car is not for only show off purpose it's actual purpose get fulfilled when one go for drive.

Same way when Yoga became most popular in all across the world, people forgot it's actual use and started using to maintain their body only. But Yoga does not means to maintain only body but to control senses, mind and intelligence and render service towards Lord Krishna then it is actual Yoga else it is just something else.

Lord Krishna has already spoke in Bhagwad Gita 6.47 about who is the best Yogi?

योगिनामपि सर्वेषां मद्ग‍तेनान्तरात्मना ।

श्रद्धावान्भजते यो मां स मे युक्ततमो मत: ॥ 6.47 ॥

And of all yogÄ«s, the one with great faith who always abides in Me, thinks of Me within himself and renders transcendental loving service to Me – he is the most intimately united with Me in yoga and is the highest of all. That is My opinion.

If one just care of his body only and forgot to worship the supreme personality of Godhead who is the creator of entire universe and worshipable to all living entities is known to be the ungrateful and waste his life because our ultimate goal of life is to know the relationship with Krishna and if one become successful to know the Krishna is known to be the best Yogi.



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.

Laxmana took vow, he will not sleep for four...
