Krsna's Teachings

What does it mean to give selflessly? Now that we are at the end of the year and a new beginning is just round the corner, let us do some good deeds. When you agree with me and say that I truly want to do something nice, then open your heart and just GIVE, give and give.  So now you want to know what to give and how? As I said give with an open loving heart to the truly deserving. You think I am talking about being charitable and wanting to donate. Yes, that too! To make you understand the action of giving selflessly, I will give you certain examples here.  A young man comes to your house fully drenched from the rain, would you give him your raincoat or rain jacket? Even an old one lying in the cupboard would serve the purpose. Do you think this is an act of giving?  You realize when you open your fathers wardrobe that there are a couple of brand new jackets which you have given him as gift in the last 7-8 years and they are unused.

You stumble, you fall and then you learn! Till you don't fall down, you won't learn. I have heard people say this so many times that it is no longer potent. No human being understands the true worth of these words till it is too late.  As a young man or a woman, you want to race life faster and faster. Little realizing that you are growing towards a point wherein you have to do everything by yourself. When young, you think that you don't need to do anything at all and everything happens on its own accord. Like cooking food, putting your clothes away, clearing the bed or the kitchen, buying groceries or daily needs, paying bills in time, clearing your taxes, attending family functions and many more.  Also, if you are a man you won't know the problems of a woman and if you are a girl you may not be aware of the issues of men. Never having bought tampons or sanitary napkins, gone to a gynecologist or experienced cramps or premenstrual symptoms or menopause, a man doesn...
