SUCCESS IS AROUND THE CORNER:

                                        

Indian space agency ISRO, whole India, Indian immigrants & many other people throughout the globe got disappointed, little down & depressed due to ISRO’s Chandrayaan-2 Moon Landing failure. ISRO space agency lost communications with Chandrayaan-2's Vikram lander moments before it was to land near the south pole of the Moon. ISRO is analyzing the data to figure out what happened, hopefully good news will come out soon. Let’s wish them a big success in near future. Success Is Around The Corner.

Everyone of us have failed many times in our lives before getting success. Intermittent failures indeed are helpful for our growth. They help us to keep our feet on ground, focus on reality, makes us humbled and prevent us from getting arrogant. They tempered our consciousness & give new perspective on life. They give us new information and teach us how to deal with our life.....and finally Success.

In dictionaries also word success comes after failure. In other word success is define as which follows failure. It is good to have intermittent failure in between success. If we keep getting success one after others, when failure comes after long intervals then it is unbearable. Intermittent failure keeps us healthy may be not wealthy...LOL 😂.

One of ancient scriptures Bhagavad Gita define success in terms of our efforts not as a result. We should be very attentive & do our best efforts either at work, in building the relationships or any other projects of our lives without focusing on their outcome. Yes, we can always analyze the result and see how we can improve ourselves. 

Some stimulating quotes from gitadaily.com website will be helpful in our lives to lead us towards success.

1. Failure is a stepping stone to success.

2. Success is define as which follows failure.

3. Failure is a bump on the road, not the end of the road.
  
4. Failure is not catastrophic – to see failure as catastrophic is catastrophic.

5. Failure is not the enemy of success – it is the entry to success.

6. See failure as a practical problem, not as an existential problem.

7. Falling down is not failure – staying down is.

8. Success is not final & failure is not fatal.

Bg 5.20 -- A person who neither rejoices upon achieving something pleasant nor laments upon obtaining something unpleasant, who is self-intelligent, who is unbewildered, and who knows the science of God is already situated in transcendence.

Bg 18.35 -- And that determination which cannot go beyond dreaming, fearfulness, lamentation, moroseness and illusion – such unintelligent determination, O son of Pṛthā, is in the mode of darkness.

Have a Successful Day.

Thank You.

MY SPIRITUAL INSPIRATION , SOURCE & THE GURUS:

I am inspired to hear & read the Vedic Scriptures by regularly listening to Sri Pandurang Shashtri Athvale, also known as Dadaji ( speaks on Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Veda based discourses & western philosophy ) and the association of Swadhyay Parivar every Sunday in Swadhya Kendra. 

I also hear and read the discourses & literature on Vedic thoughts from Srila Prabhupada, his disciples & grand disciples ( HH Bhakti Rasamitra Swami, HH Chaitanya Charandas Prabhu, Shubha Vilas Prabhu, Sutapa Das, Amarnath Dasa, HH Bhakticharu Swami, HH Urmila Devi Dasi, HH Sivarama Swami, HH Radhanath Swami, HH Romapada Swami, Lal Govind Prabhu ( Gujarati & Hindi) Prahalad Maharaj in Surat (Gujarati) .......and many more from ISKCON......). 

FYI: A good source of Vedic literature: Vedabase.com . Srimad Bhagavad Gita is the essence & Srimad Bhagavatam (SB) is the nectar of all Vedic scriptures. Repeatedly hearing/reading & meditating the Scriptures, Eating Sanctified Pure Food and Chanting Vedic Mantras are nourishing to our heart (Soul), transcendental to our consciousness, purifying to our senses and thus helps us to overcome our weaknesses or deficiencies. Yes, we do have good qualities within us but there is always a room for improvement. 

It is always a good idea to share our good thoughts & knowledge with others. Thanks to the Facebook & Social media for providing me the platform. Of course I use Smartphone & Google search to collect some data. 

Besides my parents, wife, teachers, family & friends GREATFUL to EVERYONE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED in MY LIFE. Hopefully my enthusiasm will continue by Grace of the Guru & God (Krishna , Absolute Truth).

NOTE:
Many times a word Hearing is used instead of Listening when it comes to the Scriptures. Because Scriptures are so potent that simply by Hearing them even if you don’t try to interpret or analyze or understand them still there will be passive positive effects on our mind & senses.

We can follow either the Quran, Bible,Torah, Tripitaka-Buddhism, Agama-Jainism, Guru Granth Sahib-Sikhism, Gita or any other Philosophy which makes sense to us, purifies us, elevates our consciousness and qualifies us to understand God and instill the love of God & his creation. (whichever way we can understand God -- either Personal with many names or Impersonal as an universal consciousness & energy).

Don’t try to understand God by Name, Religion or Depiction (means image, picture...etc) but try to understand him by the Definition through Scriptures. The Transcendental subject of God & his creation cannot be understood by mental speculation. Some times people ask why God is Supreme? It is just like asking why is the circle circular? Just by definition, the circle is circular. Similarly by definition, God is unborn, complete, unlimited, infinite, eternal, the Absolute Truth the source of everything, cause of all causes. 

I see God, besides the above mentioned qualities, as an eternal living person (not a abstract or some kind of light) known by the name KRISHNA meaning one who attracts everyone has also MANY other NAMES, forms, abodes, incarnations, activities, qualities, associates, is full of wisdom, bliss, and the cause of all causes.

Bg 9.17 -- I am the father of this universe, the mother, the support and the grandsire. I am the object of knowledge, the purifier and the syllable oṁ. I am also the Ṛg, the Sāma and the Yajur Vedas.

Bg:13-12:-- Accepting the importance of self-realization; and philosophical search for the Absolute Truth ( God ) – all these I declare to be knowledge, and besides this whatever there may be is ignorance. ( Vedabase.com ).
