Churned Wisdom from Vedic Scriptures to help one go closer to guru, sadhu and sastra.
A devotee of the Lord is always protected by the Lord, no matter to whatever extent he may get bewildered by maya. On the other hand, a non-devotee, or even a jnani bereft of Krishna’s lotus feet gets carried away no matter how intelligent or expert he may be in controlling the mind and senses.
The same Brahma appeared as Haridasa Thakura in Caitanya Lila. Haridasa Thakura’s life of exclusive devotion enabled him to go beyond distractions, to the extent of conquering Mayadevi herself. Extra-ordinary parallels from the life of Brahma and Srila Haridas Thakura.
Can a distraction-free environment help us? What can we learn from Brahmaji’s life, his experience with distractions, and his confidence on his own devotion?
A defining quality of a devotee is their unwavering aspiration, regardless of circumstances, to remain the servant of servant of the Lord’s servants.
With countless souls approaching the Lord with their desires, does He hear them all? Does the depth of our surrender make a difference?
Why does surrendering without any reservations seem so difficult? What holds us back? Can we achieve complete surrender in this life itself?
The only result of surrendering to maya without reservations is MISERY. Why not surrender wholesale unto Krishna, who alone has the capacity to award us eternal bliss?
Rekindling the natural yet lost attraction for Krishna in our lives. Chanting the Holy Name of Krishna is the easiest and most effective means to reawaken that love. Once that love is awakened, one simply flows towards Krishna like the flow of mother Ganges towards the ocean.
