The Lord has provided food for both the elephant and the ant.

The Lord has provided food for both the elephant and the ant. All living beings are living at the cost of the supreme Lord.

    Swamin, would it be right to say "living only with the blessings " or "grace" of God? Just a thought. Dhanyosmi.

    Hare Krishna. 

    I am not Swamin. I am very ordinary person who is struggling to indulge some interest for Krishna Bhakti. 

    Whether you say 'blessing' or you say 'grace' or you say anything else, important is to understand / realize the essence behind the saying and to remember it all the time. Due to our bodily conception, we think that whatever is done is due to me and my efforts only. We should get rid of this thought.

    Nice to see that you read the saying / quote carefully. Hope you will keep it in mind and be thankful to Krishna all the time, as He is taking care of you :-)

    Absolutely Swamin. We need HIS grace to keep this thought in mind and not let the "I" or "me" rule our thoughts. Dhanyosmi.

    Hare Krishna.

    For HIS grace - you should do regular association of His devotees. Through association of His devotees, the thought process you are talking about will be developed and you will get proper guidance to move in the direction of Krishna Bhakti.

"I am still speechless on my childs answer and have started searching for God in Humans instead of statues. -- A good story which I read today. Not sure whether this has been penned by an agnostic or atheist. But forms a good question for discussion. What do you all think about this?

I have been thinking recently about our state of temples.

I have been thinking recently about our state of temples. They have changed their forms from being cultural and binding factors to just business centres. mostly people who are visiting the temples are doing mechanical things. how can we revive the temples as discussion forums for arts, culture, social responsibilities from being just "transactional" in nature. there are satsangas being organized in the temples, but they just follow the bhakthi movement. how can we revive usage of sanskrit, learning of vedas, and then to create a more responsible generation than ours? ideas are welcome...
