More problems means more luck

Image
We are searching for happiness but result we get is pain but not happiness. We get pains due to various problems. Problems arise continuously one after another and pains follow similarly. Sometimes multiple problems haunt us and so does pain. When more problems haunt us our life becomes more painful and we see no points in living. We feel ourselves to be most unlucky person of the entire creation but reality is not like that. Although it may contradict your previously occupied concepts in mind but it is the fact that if we get more problems we become luckier. But, how? How can more problems refer more luck in our life? Questions may arise. For this question there is answer too. It is presented here. When we face more problems we become frustrated with our present life. Present life means our life that is based on temporary existence. It means that everything that is in our life presently will go away from us in due course of time. Our property m

Basic Features of Hare Krishna mantra over other mantras

Image
Hare Krishna mantra is the king of all mantras i.e. Mahamantra whereas other mantra are not Mahamantra. Hare Krishna Mantra alone can benefit us as the combination of all mantras can do . Hare Krishna Mantra  has base in scripture. Hare Krishna Mantra can be chanted irrespective of caste, age, sex, faith & religion, time etc. whereas most of the mantras are bound to certain conditions. Hare Krishna Mantra Chanting is guaranteed process whereas most of other can not be guaranted. Hare Krishna Mantra  is far superior. Chanting Hare Krishna mantra means searching the place for Serving God but not asking him for serving us. A child begs for his service with his parents whereas mature person tries to  serve his parents. Hare Krishna mantra is easy to chant and pronounce. Hare Krishna mantra is not confined within certain sects only but it is overall process. Hare Krishna mantra can directly give us eternal happiness. Hare Krishn

Blogging for true spirituality

Image
Blog basically refers to the website or a part of website that includes personal opinions, views, news and so on. So, many people raise the question ‘ how can we use blog for spirituality?’. Since spirituality is basically about following the authority not the personal opinions the question raised here is appropriate. As far as it is our personal opinion then how can it be the authentic source? . It sounds contradicting in one sense but reality is not like that. Actual reality is far beyond such speculations. Although blog contains personal opinion but personal opinions are eventually the outcome of our previous knowledge and experience. If we are associated with previous bona fide authoritive source of knowledge then all our opinions are outcome of those knoledge but not of our speculation. But if we have no connection with actual bona fide person or souce all our opinions are nothing more than just the speculation. We can not say the things ju

Lord Caitanya is Krishna himself

Image
Lord caitanya is non-different from Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Vedic scriptures fairly declare this truth. Qualities of Caitanya Mahaprabhu, scriptural injunctions, philosophical, historical and scientific background prove this truth.  Although crystal clear proof is available just in front of us but majority of us even do not know lord Chaitanya. Most of us are familiar with Krishna but we have no knowledge about his most merciful form called Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Although we read scripture but we always miss the most important slokas (texts) which tell about Caitanya. Although we are searching for pure love of God but we are unfamiliar with that form who is freely distributing the rarest love of God called Krishna Prem. This is the bitter truth that the world is facing now. There are only few people who have heard of lord Caitanya mahaprabhu. Lord Caitanya is the most merciful form of lord Krishna. He is combined form of both Ra

Human Body is not designed to eat Meat

Human Body is not designed to eat Meat >> Article by Pradeep We are by nature not designed to eat meat. Actually our body should be nourished by only vegetarian food. Our bodily features prove our plant eating nature. Our body resembles with that of plant eaters but not the meat eater. Following points can best describe why human are not for eating meat but the vegetarian foods. These points prove that human body is not designed to eat Meat. Eating and drinking behavior : Meat eaters  by nature lick and drink whereas plant eaters suck and drink. For example cow drinks water by sucking whereas dog by licking. Human body naturally sucks but not lick. That means human body resembles plant eater body. Front teeth : Meat eaters have sharp and pointed front teeth for tearing flesh whereas plant eaters have incising teeth to cut vegetarian food. Human have no sharp and pointed front teeth.   Claws : Meat eaters have claws and plant eaters have no cla

Correcting spiritual dilemma

Image
Look at your spiritual capacity first When you become physically sick you go to physician . Do you make your complicated treatment yourself ? Certainly not. Unless you visit the appropriate physician it is impossible for curing your disease. The physician is one who knows the subject matter and its application in the depth . Furthermore , the person can not act as a physician unless he has got approved certificate. Similarly when you want to learn science you go to science teacher. Do you experiment and study without the aid of science teacher? Certainly not. You approach the master of science and learn science from him. You can not just rely on your feelings, belief and thoughts. Not only these two cases but we go to respective specialist for respective subject matter. Our imitation does not work. But due to the covering of illusion called Maya every one of us feel ourselves as spiritual specialist. We imitate ourselves as very learn spiritualist, isn’t it? We even start to t

Why to read Bhagavad-Gita

Image
Why to read Bhagavad-Gita Bhagavad-Gita , also called Gitopanisad is the actual science for self realization. Srimad Bhagavad-Gita is regarded as most important scripture . But some people raise question why Bhagavad-Gita .For them here are some points that clarify in depth why why to read Bhagavad-Gita: Bhagavad-Gita is the direct instruction of God. Bhagavad-Gita can be realized from every angles such as practical base, theoretical depth etc. Bhagavad–Gita deals with every condition that we face. Bhagavad-Gita gives strength to walk on the path of devotion. Bhagavad–Gita is prescribed by all other scriptures. Bhagavad–Gita gives guarantee for its every instructions to be valid and working. Bhagavad-Gita deals with the concept of soul, nature, our goal & destination, Supreme Being, our relationship with Supreme God etc. Bhagavad-Gita is mysterious. Bhagavad–Gita every time freshens readers. Bhagavad–Gita can easily touch our heart. Bhagavad–Gita can kill

Walking on own foot is safest

Image
Our fundamental mistake is that we never get satisfied with what we have. God has given us two legs to walk on but being unsatisfied with our legs we ride on bicycle , motorcycle , car, bus , plane etc. Although riding on those vehicles makes our journey fast but it is too much risky. Numerous accidents are proof for this. We are actually inviting risks and death near us by choosing vehicles  but not our safest foot. Similar happens in each and every aspects of our life. We don’t give care in our basic boon but search for another one which is not with us. What are we lacking ? In one sense nothing . God has given us everything needed . We have nice body and nice parts. We are provided with everything needed to sustain our life. But we never realize so and search for the water of mirage. It is our fundamental illusion  and misconception. We get unsatisfied with our village and try to migrate in towns, we get unsatisfied with our old friends and sea

Our actual Position is Servant not the master!!!

Image
Our actual Position is Servant not the master!!! Every one of us want to be master. Whole of our struggle in this world are directly or indirectly aimed at becoming master. First of all, we want to enjoy our senses and try hard to use them for us. It means that we want to be the master of our senses. Secondly nobody of us wants to be low profiled than other. That means we struggle hard to prove that we are good than other. Thirdly, we don’t like to sacrifice anything for other but want to use other more and more. What to tell of such general things we even want to make Supreme Lord our servant. We give him the order to fulfill our needs. But none of our plan gets success. All our plans, policies and strategies to become master fail because our actual position is that of servant not the master. Whether it is family life or social, political life or scientific, our basic defect is that we want to prove ourselves as the master not the servant. In daily life we try to suppress our fam

Bodily Conception

Image
Foundation of modern civilization is bodily conception of the life. It means modern civilization is revolving totally around body. It gives us the identity of our body, teaches us to work for body and finally die for body. This is actually deviated from traditional Vedic civilization where conception behind civilization was soul not the body. If some one asks for our identity we immediately provide details of our name, parents, country , occupation and so on. In fact all of those details are derived by keeping our body in centre otherwise how could it be possible to say that I am from this country , this family and so on. We call a country by word ‘my’ because my body was born in the same country or for some similar reason. We say  my parent because my parents gave me my body. People use name for recognizing  the body. Not only this every aspects of modern civilization are centered around this conception of body. Vedic civilization is just opposite of this. First word of Vedic c

Vedic Science is really amazing

Image
Vedic science is really amazing!!! Vedic Science is really amazing. Although some people accuse Vedic scriptures to be the outcome of superstitious belief but reality is not so. Those people who accuse Vedic scriptures to be outcome of superstitious belief forward modern science as their strength to defeat Vedic scripture. But when analyzed in depth , even the modern science provides sufficient proofs for Vedic science to be valid. Some of the famous modern scientists are amazed at the knowledge , facts and figures given in the Vedic scriptures. Albert Einstein who is one   of the most famous modern scientist used to read Vedic scriptures regularly. It is said that his invention and law of relativity was eventually derived from the knowledge given in the Vedic science. We also can see it in scriptures like Mahabharata where tools and technique regarding fire weapons, water weapons, air weapons etc . is given. The theory behind those tools are eventually based on the theory of relativi

Who is Actual Guru?

Image
Who is Actual Guru? In worldly view ‘guru’ is one who teaches someone the something. Students in the school call their respective subject teacher their respective subject Guru because they learn something about that subject from him/her. If someone teaches about sport then he is called sport teacher (Guru) and if someone teaches about music he is given the title Music teacher (Guru) . While giving such title the word ‘Guru’ has been very cheap nowadays. Guru is not a ordinary word. Mundane interpretation has misjudged the word ‘Guru’. Guru is the Sanskrit word which means Genuine Spiritual Master. Spiritual master is regarded as important as the God. Spiritual master is one who gives real knowledge and makes disciple realized . Everybody can not be spiritual master (guru) unless having some special qualities and qualification. Cheater can not be a guru. Nowadays , we can find many pseudo- guru who themselves are not realized soul and are under the control of illusory energy. But actu

Actual Deadly Poison

Image
Actual Deadly Poison You may be confused that I am speaking of poisons like Potassium Cyanide (KCN) or Halaahal poison (drank by lord Shiva) nor Hemlet or other but I mean to say that Bad Association is even more deadly poisonous than the most powerful poison. So, one should be careful not to have the interconnection of Bad Association. Two years ago, I met my childhood friend whom I had not met since last four years. He was somewhere away from us   for study purposes. Four years back when he used to live with us , he was the model example of guanine and disciplined person. He never touched intoxicating substances such as smoking , marijuana , alcohol and other drugs. Rather he used to aware other people to be away from intoxication. His explanation was heart touching. His progress report in education was really a good example of   success. We were envious of his success. Our parents used to scold us for our condition by giving his example. After finishing school level education he ent

Why don’t you say “ Krishna lifted Goverdhan hill when he was just 7”?

Image
Why don’t you say “ Krishna lifted Goverdhan hill when he was just 7”? We find many peoples saying that Krishna was always behind the girls and women. He was always behind Gopis and they eventually draw conclusion that Krishna is a playboy. Rounding myself around this point I started to collect more details about Krishna’s pastimes ( leelas). Here are the list of some important pastimes of Krishna : ·          Krishna’s appearance : During his appearance on this earth he had shown his four handed form ( Vishnu form) to his parents. Which is not ordinary thing. No one can show that except God. ·          Killing of demons by Krishna : Krishna Killed demons like Putana, Sakatasura, Trinavarta, Vatsasura, Bakasura, Aghasura etc. who were too powerful   during his childhood. No child can even think to defeat and kill those powerful demons. ·          Lifting of Goverdhan hill : Krishna lifted the Goverdhan hill by his forefinger to save the inhabitants of Vrindavan when he was just the chi

Internet and Spirituality

Internet and Spirituality Are Internet and Spirituality interrelated? What is the relation between Internet and Spirituality? Does internet promote or hampers spirituality? How can we use internet for promoting spirituality? These are some of the top rated question that arise in the mind of people who want to use internet and at the same time practices spirituality. Those questions are really nice because internet can be both useful and harmful for our spirituality. It depends upon our use. If we properly use internet it can promote our spiritual progress and if we misuse it , internet surely ruins our spiritual life i.e devotional life. Hare are some questions for you. 1. Do you use internet for visiting spiritual site? 2. How often you visit spiritual sites while you use internet? Do you use internet for getting devotees association? Do you use it for getting spiritual updates? Do you use internet for chatting with devotees? Do you use internet for

Be careful with modernism!

Image
Be careful with modernism!!! Do you love modernism? I love and you may also love but be careful with modernism. Modernism can be fatal for you if you can not properly handle it. Modernism is very dangerous as most of the peoples have become victim of its bad effect and their life has been ruined. Again be careful that modernism is not harmful always. In fact modernism helps us in many ways but in the name of modernism if we step forward without any precautions it is very dangerous. Modern civilization is misdirected in many place and in many way. It is seen that modern civilization finally shows the water of mirage and we waste our life behind it. Modern civilization teaches for outer decoration but not the inner one. It teaches bodily civilization. Nowadays scientists have forwarded anti-material world concept forward. It there exists opposite of everything for balance such as electron exists where proton exists . Similarly there should exist anti-

Hinduism : Faith or religion?

Image
Hinduism : Faith or religion???? It is said that Hinduism is the world’s oldest religion  with no date back history. Some people say that Hinduism , Christianity, Buddhism  etc. to whom people call Religions are not actually religion but the Faiths. Of course they exercise religion but more or less they are Faiths and different platform of faith. Finally some people who call themselves non-sectarian call all those different religions concepts are actually the concepts of different faith but not religion. Religion is only one of all. One’s religion is never changed just like a universal truth is truth for ever. Science is for all not for only limited peoples. Similarly one’s  spiritual constitutional position and duty is our religion. We are actually the servant and God is our master and loving service for lord is our eternal religion. No one can change this eternal religion but faith can be changed. It is basic and widely accepted concept of religion and is so defined by Vedic scr

Money : The common problem of all

Image
"Money : The common problem of all" Problem is money and money makes problem. Agree????? No one can deny this fact that everyone is running after money in this world. Money has been felt as the greatest necessity of the world. Every things which has been happening in this world has connection with money in some ways. Actually whether one cries or laughs, makes friendship or war, works or sits or whatever happens the main reason has always been   ’money’. 'Money' is felt as if it is the action creator or it is the root of the everything. At the same time everyone of us have been feeling problem in various ways. Our life is becoming more and more complicated day by day. Have you ever been out for searching  job? You may have done so and how was your experience? How did you know about that job? Did you take the help of advertisement published in the newspaper or your friend told about it. No matter how you knew but did you get what you had expected? Did you o

Four Regulative Principles….

Image
Four regualative principles? What are those four regulative principles? It was confusing me too much. Although  I was familiar with all of those principles but still I was confused . I was vegetarian from long ago. I did not take shelter of intoxications such as smoking and alcoholism since beginning of the life. I strictly avoided illicit relationships and I don’t know how to play playing cards still. Despite of this fact , when I heard of four regulative principles , I got myself in confused state. I was always questioning with myself a question that would it be possible to follow all those four principles forever . At the same time my concept of those principles was only surfacial before I found the following conversation of Krishna’s devotees with a person in their preaching service. This conversation relaxed me and I got concept that four regulative principles are the pillars of our spiritual life. It also convinced me that although it may be dif
