Krsna's Teachings

She got inside the taxi and told the driver where to go.  The door opened suddenly and a hotel staff asked her to get out since she had not been in the place where they hail the cabs.  She explained to him that she had to reach another part of town desperately for an interview. He understood her rush and was closing the door letting her go for her interview.  But from the other side a woman came rushing in and got inside pushing the young girl out.  The young girl told the lady the same about getting across the town for an interview, but the lady told her off that she didn't care.  The lady told the young girl that she has been waiting for the cab for fifteen minutes and she was not bothered whether it was her interview or whatever! She berated her further for not adhering to the rules for getting a cab.  The young girl had to get off the cab and lost her time getting across town for the said interview.  The girl couldn't get any transport for a very l...

You have read so many feel good books and autobiographies of great people. You had always wanted to emulate someone in your life. You gathered so much from their stories and filed away their achievements. Yet, you have never been able to make a breakthrough in your life.  Right from the childhood days you have read comics and watched super heroes fight villains on screen. You have read in your school books about great martyrs who liberated the nations, nurses who worked tirelessly tending the battle injured. You heard about the penniless boy who went on to discover things never dreamed of. You saw docudramas of scientists who read in candlelights or street lamps. You dreamed of men and women who persevered and won fame and fortune, prizes and awards too.  They all stood for hard tiring work. They sweated their blood for the victories and made day and night progress. They used their fantastic memories or intelligence to discover strange stuff. They came up with solutions to the...

The defects or shortcomings given to you to overcome them and not to loose to them. Many years ago, I knew a man named Shivaji Jadhav whose English was pathetic, whose manners were crude and whose appearance was that of a villager. But he sold the highest number of vacuum cleaners door to door. You may ask his secret sauce or recipe for success, right?  He just went and sold to whomsoever he could by consistently doing cold calls. The more the number of people he met, the more he sold. By the end of the day he had a pile of would-be prospects who could be converted into sales. He then generously passed them around for others to close.  He came from a very humble background and he graduated in the state language only. He came to the big city to search for opportunities. When he finally landed a job as a vacuum cleaner salesman, he knew that he had no choice but to excel. He lugged the huge bag of vacuum cleaners all over the city giving demonstrations to anyone whom he could co...

Most of us have watched porn and loved it too. The internet runs on porn. Movies do too because of the sleazy content. Then why are we so hypocritical in saying that we haven't watched it? Or that it is a bad thing? Religion says so, you have often wondered and didn't know whom to ask.  The Bible says that you cannot watch such dirty stuff. We are not here to make judgements on that. But we have to find out why we are so scared of being seen. It's the taboo attached to watching porn. You always knew that the actors in porn are always well endowed and are actors only. They seem to have capabilities far beyond the normal ken and understanding. They perform so well that it makes you wonder about their capabilities. That's the time we should remember a lot goes in film making. Shots, cuts, edits and a whole load of acting skills.  Have you ever wondered why the halls of a temple are adorned with well endowed women and men? Some of the ancient temples show two, three or more...

Do you know you get conned at holy places every time you go there for the purpose of doing some sacrifice or fulfilling some worldly wants of yours?  It is written in the holy books to visit places of worship and do prayers there. To fulfill your various demands you always go to meet these deities at select places. You offer various elaborate prayers or offerings to these divinities and pray to them to eradicate some malevolent effects of certain demons or planets in your natal charts.  You also go there to fulfill your asks like jobs, marriage, children, money, legal issues, diseases, etc..  Now when you do that you don't realize that you get trapped into certain rites and rituals and become slaves to that deity. You keep on visiting them so often. The ones who benefit from you are countless people. You generate an ecosystem which provides livelihood to many. Let's see how you create an industry. First it's the astrologer or some such person who points out the defect in ...

Don't teach me! I know what is right! Whenever you ask someone to do something, that person usually doesn't perform the said task in the specified manner. Especially if it is related to marriage, teaching, life decisions, etc.. I shall elaborate here the examples.  You tell your child that for his future growth and development he needs to do a certain course, but he doesn't listen to you. He follows all his friends and joins something that has no value. With the wisdom and foresight given to you by your years of experience, you had advised him on his life path. But he doesn't listen to you and does exactly as he wishes. Thereby falling into the trap set by destiny. Much later he realizes and repents on that.  Now a young girl is advised not to get into a certain relationship but she disses you and falls exactly into that relationship. Much later she realizes the futility of it all and repents. You had told her about the pitfalls right at the onset but she didn't car...
