Krsna's Teachings

If a person is never caught or nailed to his lie does not necessarily mean that he is perfect! It only means that we are too naive not to see through the maya of the Lord! The Lords maya works so beautifully that we are always deluded by her in various aspects of life. Take for example the great matches being played, if you are naive enough then you will never see through the deals struck at the beginning of the whole episodes. Similarly when someone is trying so hard to create a grand infrastructure and the whole universe is against them, you should wonder why that is happening at that moment! Please know that it is just another deal being struck somewhere and every hungry mouth needs to be satisfied along the path. If you fail to give in to that hungry dragon of deceit, corruption, palm greasing, under the table deals, cloak and dagger stuff, then you are not suitable enough to be in that place. You better leave the field to the experienced players. They truly know how to play the ga

Have you noticed how much of hot air goes around when two or more people meet at a party, office, outdoors, in twitter and facebook and at the dinner table too? The main purpose of this chatter is to create conversation and for what purpose? That is to establish our own identity and create a voluminous ideas about our own little self. To feel wanted, to get there first, to say that-I know, to make others feel how much of knowledge we have, to feel good about our own-self, to joke and make fun of others, to pull the others down and so on. This is exactly how we talk nonstop and make our presence felt. The chatter goes on even in the mind after we have left the place. Reminds me of a story where the Guru and the disciple are going cross country. They meet a very beautiful damsel who requests the elder to carry her across the river which is swollen. The Guru carries her on his shoulder and drops her on the other side. After a few hours, the disciple asks the Guru how did he feel carrying

The story from the Puranas about King Ambarish is very significant to us. The king was undertaking a fast and at that time Durvasa muni came to him. The King had to break the fast with water and tulsi before the sage could return from his bath and so the sage got angry and sent a ogre after the king. The Lord who was pleased with Ambarish's devotion sent his sudarshan chakra after the ogre and killed it. Thereafter the astra turned its attention to the sage Durvasa and started to follow him. The sage finally took refuge with Vishnu who told him that only his devotee Ambarish could save him. The sage asked for pardon from the king and the astra went back to its abode. Such is a simple story but what significance does it have in our life. The duvidha or Dichotomy is always there in our life which we have to solve but when we do we always have a distaste for the solution. Let me give you an example here. Here is a woman who is facing a husband who has caused her harm by assault and ba
