hare krishna thank u suchandra for helping me understand and clear my doubt. hare krishna!

hare krishna! i often listen that energy gets dissipated when we engage our mind in unholy thoughts...my question is how does the saved energy help us? is it that we get more stamina? or is it like we get brave and uneffected by undesirous effects...or does it help in concentration....or does it gives us power over our sensual gratification....how does this saved energy help us? please elevate me. thanks hare krishna!

hare krishna! please clarify the question...... as per my knowledge what ever a person does becomes a karma and every karma bears its fruits unless its done with out expecting the results or submitting it to the lord. In gita karma yoga is explained beautifully by the lord...go through it. sivananda.org also has a very good article about karmas and its results. hare krishna

hare krishna many a time a religious discussion starts with an enquiry or stating facts and that leads to comparison , trying to prove themselves and imposing their beliefs on others accompanied by hate ,anger, hurt........ one must remember that one doesn't become right by showing others to be wrong. healthy arguments about religion discloses various facts, believes and understanding.one must not forget the basic idea behind the discussions that ALMIGHTY GOD exists and our true mission is to reach him by overcoming our sense gratification tendencies. NOTHING is important in life if it is not about god and how to achieve him ! hare krishna.

hare krishna dear souls......what happens to the soul when a person commits suicide? one of my friends committed suicide as she believed she could reach god. many of u might have attended many devotional lectures,many might have well learned masters.....does any one happen to recall any such talks from ur masters regarding suicide? please throw some light.... hare krishna!

hare krishna dear soul......though ur words are sarcastic, they show that u wanted to be lords best devotee ...above everyone....that desire is good but not enough as it needs tremondous sincerity,honesty and integrity! ur cry just looked like a first grade boy crying to sit in the class of 10th grade. u'll only achieve it gradually with lot of practice tests and exams. hare krishna!

hare krishna! dear soul...we all r in the journey towards lord krishna's feet.some have reached him,some are our seniors,some of us are freshers....it doesn't matter where u stand(fresher or senior) what matters is how much r u determined to attain kannayya's feet? if u know that life is only for a short while,if u know that all material possesions will only stay with u temperorily,if u know that ur loved ones leave u without notice.......then comes the real thought where am i heading? u might fail in first attempt to be polite,kind,loving or live all virtuous life but keep analysing and amending urself untill there is nothing left to change .practice all ur life with faith to please the lord.then god showers u with eternal knowledge.....the knowledge of self !! hare krishna!

Hare Krishna! dear soul do not be offended by critics or the the people around u.... if u give a mixture of milk and water to the swan it has the ability to separate them and absorb only milk leaving water behind. one should only be concerned with what good one gets with a critic.rest of the bad or things done with contempt must be left behind for those who created it. hare krishna !

Will I be cursed if I chant the Maha Mantra after eating meat?
sailu replied to a topic in Spiritual Discussions
you get soya chunks in desi stores which is vegitarian and good source of protine and also gives you the rubbery texture like chicken which could help you as a substitute and also helps to satisfy ur craving for chicken feel and guilt free. cook it with masala made for chicken curry ,takes less time too. -
my dear soul it is very unfortunate that you had to go through such a bad episode in ur life. sometimes people around us get so selfish that they forget the basic rule...what we sow we reap! sweet soul, understand this suffering kicks and blows in life are inevitable. they teach us an important lesson that things u cling to will be lost,the people will change or be lost,everything here is temperory....do not cry for it,just let it go ! if a child cries that he lost a pencil what would you think? you'll think it is so silly to cry for it afterall it is only a pencil. if a parent lost a child and cries for it what would grand parents say? they would tell u to just let it go as birth and death are not in our hands and u'll have kids again... if grand parents lost their grown up child and its family and cries for it what would a sanyasin say? he would say its alright no one on this earth is permanent and the soul never dies....so don't cry. what do u learn from this? as u grow ur understanding about life also grows and for all that u cried earlier looks very silly. now about pain caused by others......rule#2:misery is never undeserved. to understand this u must know about laws of karma.what ever a person does becomes a karma.enormous karma has been acumilated from past lives.one must bear its fruits to clear that out.for eg: if u insult some one u'll be insulted. if u hurt some one or kill some one that will come back to you with same force. so understand that the misery is caused by your own actions from the past.do not pull krishna into this. lord almighty krishna is the bestower of knowledge,forgives the sinner when surrenders,loves his children.i'll give an example here: mother says to the little child do not climb up the chair u'll fall down and get hurt.so play on the ground and she went into kitchen.the child doesn't listen and out of stubbornness he climbs up and falls.he cries as he got hurt. now do u blame the mother? mother out of compassion comes running and soothes the child. In her heart she feels sad that her child had to suffer but she also knows that life has started teaching the lesson of pain and it comes only through bad experiences .....in its own way. krishna is like mother.....tells u in many ways what is good ,what is bad but we fail to listen and the result is.... we suffer. sweet soul, don't ever let that thought of dieing into ur mind. those people kill themselves who doen't have the knowledge of the value of life. human life is very rare to get and as i said its only purpose is to liberate from this cycle of birth and deaths. ur suffering will not vanish untill u bear it.if u tried to stop it by killing yourself...it will follow u to ur next birth...do u want to continue this suffering in ur next life too? but there is a way to lessen ur suffering and that is pray to the god sincerely and the suffering of snake bite changes to a pin prick......that is the power of prayer. read GITA with meaning one chapter every day and in few weeks u'll see the difference in ur life.do this with all love and trust towards krishna. do not doubt his help for he helps in different ways....it could be direct sometimes or indirect like giving knowledge and understanding things better,like suggesions,amendments to be done in ur life.....ect. change yourself completely......appearence-simple,talking-only useful words and sweetly,keep ur mind calm without hatered,revenge,desires,etc do the chanting of harekrishna mahamantra when ever possible.u'll be the most happy person with in little time.i assure you and i shall also pray for u. god bless u. hare krishna!!

HARE KRISHNA ! DEAR SOULS .......I AM AN ORDINARY PERSON WHO IS MIXTURE OF GOOD AND BAD LIKE LOVE,HATE,ANGER,MERCY,PASSION,JEALOUS,GOD LOVING, FEAR OF DEMONS, LIKES LUXURY,SOME TIMES FEELS EVERYTHING IS A WASTE, DILEMA........ MANY SMALL AND BIG THINGS HAPPENED IN MY LIFE WHICH LEAD ME TO THINK OF THE VALUE OF LIFE.HERE ARE SOME OF MY THOUGHTS RATHER I'D SAY THE KNOWLEDGE I GAINED SO FAR.......I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HELP THOSE IN SEARCH OF ANSWERS JUST LIKE ME. 1.THE PUPOSE OF HUMAN LIFE IS TO ACHIEVE HIGHER CONCIOUSNESS AND BE BIRTH & DEATHLESS. 2.THIS PROCESS OF BIRTH & DEATH IS A CONTINUAL JOURNEY UNTILL WE REACH THE STATE OF PERFECTION 3.ON OUR LIFE PATH WE FIND MANY PEOPLE AROUND US WHO ARE ALSO KNOWINGLY OR UNKNOWINGLY IN THE SAME JOURNEY AND WE SHOULD HELP ALL THOSE WHO CROSS OUR PATH. 4.ONE SHOULD EVOLVE WITH EXPERIENCES AND SHOULDN'T LEAVE THE PATH OF SPIRITUALITY. 5.IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE PERFECTION OR KNOWLEDGE OF SELF ONE SHOULD GIVE UP SELFISHNESS(SMALL OR BIG) 6.IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE KNOWLEDGE OF SELF ONE HAS TO DO THE SAADANA. 7.CHANGE URSELF FROM BITTER TO SWEET....BE UNATTACHED,HELPFUL,KIND,CARING. 8.GIVE BUT DON'T TAKE. DON'T EXPECT. 9.IGNORE ALL OTHER THINGS LIKE... OTHERS HATE U,MISUNDERSTAND U,GOSSIP ABOUT U,HARSHWORDS,RUDENESS...ETC LIFE IS VERY VALUABLE TO WASTE IT IN SUCH TRIVIAL MATTERS. 10.DEVELOPE TOLERENCE.ALWAYS REMEBER THAT U R IN THE MIDDLE OF UR JOURNEY AND THESE TRIVIAL THINGS SHOULD NOT PULL U BACK FROM REACHING UR DESTINATION. 11.USE THIS ENTIRE LIFE TO PLEASE THE GOD WHO INTURN WILL HELP U DO THE SAADANA WITH OUT INTURRUPTION AND WHEN U COULD TAME THE TRECHEROUS MIND AND SENSES THEN U R READY TO RECIVE THE KNOWLEDGE. 12.NOTHING IS SUPIRIOR TO KNOWLEDGE OF SELF. 13.HE IS RICH WHO POSSES THE TRUE KNOWLEDGE AND HE IS POOR WHO FORGETS THE IMPORTANCE OF LIFE AND RUNS AFTER THE MATERIAL THINGS OF THIS WORLD. 14.DO NOT AMASS THE WEALTH FOR UR SELFISH DEEDS ...U CAN FEED A HUNGRY PERSON WHO IS YOUR CO-PASSENGER IN THIS JOURNEY. 15.TAKE A VOW THIS VERY MINUTE THAT I SHALL CHANGE MYSELF FROM BAD TO BETTER AND GO UP THE LADDER TO REACH LORDS FEET. 16.EVERY ACT OF MINE THAT CAUSE PAIN TO OTHERS WILL PULL ME DOWN THE LADDER AND SO I SHALL BE CAREFUL IN MY WORD AND DEED. 17.ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO REACH GOD WITH OUT SAADANA. RECITING GODS NAME IS THE EASY AND BEST MEANS TO ATTAIN THE ALMIGHTY GOD KRISHNA !!! THANKS TO ALL -UR HUMBLE SERVENT HARE KRISHNA !

i have a brief knowledge about karmas.i know that karmas get extinct when they bear their fruits of action in course of time... my doubt is that how do we clear our daily karmas... after every karma do we say 'krishnarpanam' or at the end of the day we pray to god and offer all day's karmas to the lord? pls clarify.... thanks -S.
