Don't allow others to affect you

Often we see people seeking approval from others to be happy. If they grant our happiness then we become happy otherwise we feel sad. 

To grow personally and also in our relationships with others, we can not allow people to affect us negatively.

Because we see most of the people surrounded by us are demotivating people few of them are rare to motivate us in our difficult times.

So we have to take our own responsibility emotionally and for that we must be internally very strong and there comes spiritual practice, the person who are internally strong much by his regular sadhana can never get affected by surroundings and negative people.

And that is why Lord Krishna says in Bhagwad Gita one should focus on and if he is fully determined he will not get bewildered by many things.

So our main problem is we are not fully focused on our goal that is why these surrounding and negative people affect us but if we are determined and focused on our goal then we are never concerned about these things.

व्यवसायात्मिका बुद्धिरेकेह कुरूनन्दन ।

बहुशाखा ह्यनन्ताश्च बुद्धयोऽव्यवसायिनाम् ॥ 2.41 ॥

Those who are on this path are resolute in purpose, and their aim is one. O beloved child of the Kurus, the intelligence of those who are irresolute is many-branched.

A river may get affected by outside water but an ocean does not due to its deepness. So if one is deeply connected with Lord Krishna he feel sheltered and none of the outside things can shake him.


Hare Krishna!

Nectar in the beginning but Poison in end

He was young and belonging from rich family, he entered into the compartment and seated next to me.  Long and stylist hair, branded watch on wrist, iPhone in hand but he was loosing his control. Started abusing someone on phone and shouting out very louder, people was looking at him.  He was fully drunken and started vomiting, people thrown out him out of train and he slayed down at platform. Story is not over yet, I was thinking is this our modern education we are providing to our children and in the name of facilities we are giving them huge money, branded gadgets, but being an guarding do we ever try to esquire what they do and, which type of association they keep?  Once these things comes in their hands they start thinking, no one is greater than me and due to false ego they disrespect elder people.  But one thing they forget, disrespecting elder people only harmful to them because elderly people only teach them morality and good lesson.

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati - A Lion Guru

Today we are celebrating the appearance day of the most important personality of the Gaudiya Vaishnava community Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura. Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati, who was also known as Saraswati Thakur, he appeared in the holy place of Jagannath Puri in the year 1874. When he was born, his umbilical cord was wrapped around him exactly as a brahmana thread decorates those who are twice born, which is a very rare and special phenomenon. And at his birth when people saw this they were very much astonished.
