Krishna - Song of God

The Lord loves us so much, he sang us a song "The Song of God" Bhagavad Gita As It Is translated by Srila Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

Here's a great story. I hope you get something out of it.

Why you should read Bhagavad Gita (As It Is)

An old sage lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Bhagavad Gita. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, 'Grandpa! I try to read the Bhagavad Gita just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Bhagavad Gita do?'

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, 'Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.' The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house.

The Grandfather laughed and said, 'You'll have to move a little faster next time,' and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead.

The old man said, 'I don't want a bucket of water, I want a basket of water. You're just not trying hard enough,' and he went out the door to watch the boy try again.

At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would leak out before he got back to the house.

The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he said, 'See Grandpa, it's useless!'

'So you think it is useless?' The old man said,'Look at the basket.' The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out.

The Grandfather said softly, 'Son, that's what happens when you read the Bhagavad Gita. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and out.

So, this is one reason for reading the ‘Song of the Lord’ The Bhagavad Gita (As It Is)

Om Tat Sat
Peace to All

Holistic yoga meditation 4221 qld likes this quote by Mahatma Gandhi-

There is more than enough food, water, fuel and so on to satisfy the actual needs of everyone on the planet. But there is not enough to satisfy every one's greed.

Even if it were physically possible for a person to consume all the food, water, and fuel in the world, they would still not be happy or satisfied.

Over consumption comes about due to an inner craving, a spiritual emptiness. A person mistakenly believes that they are the physical body, not having had the opportunity to hear from timeless sources to the contrary. Our essence is actually spiritual.

Therefore a person falls under the misunderstanding that accumulating as many 'goodies' as possible, will bring fulfilment. However, the fact is, matter cannot satisfy spiritual craving. Try as we may, we are never satisfied, we never feel that we have enough.

How to keep your Balance in Life - Australian Holistic Yoga Meditation

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving

We may not like to think about how short a lifetime is. Most in young bodies don't give it much thought, I never did when I was a youngster. BUT as the body gets older, we become more aware that the end is drawing near.

During our lifetime we experience alot of up hill, down dale moments. During our lifetime we have to deal with alot of trials and tribulations, depending on what our karmic allotment might be. Sometimes life appears to be 'good' and at other times, 'NOT so good.' It is not an easy task to remain in a state of 'balance'

If you were born with an inquisitive nature, (like myself) always annoying parents with 101 questions which they struggled to answer but couldn't. They would simply look at me in astonishment and ask with furrowed brow, 'why do you ask so many questions?'. 

It doesn't matter what stage of life we are in when we start searching, questioning life and or, lifes purpose. The main thing is that we start. Sooner or later we will come acoss the answers. Perfect timing and perfectly arranged.

Yoga texts tell us that the precious human form of life is meant for inquiry, to ask questions like, 'why am I here, or what's life all about, what should my goal in life be'

Yoga wisdom is a science based process or application, after applying the process one experiences a tangible result. For us the result has been, being able to weather the storms of life, take the good with the bad, work through situations with understanding.

Ancient teachings and transcendental knowledge is available to all man kind. These teachings have been passed to us by authentic fully self realised yoga masters who want nothing from us, they simply ask us to investigate... with an open heart and mind, they ask us to examine and apply, experience for ourselves the tangible results. 

Motivated out of love and compassion they give this information freely. Wanting only to point us in the right direction. This amazing information is like a shining beacon of light in the dark of night. This ancient information illuminates the darkness of illusion, helping the individual soul to see and understand clearly how to act and live in this world. All this via a very simple practice; the hearing and repeating of sacred sound, the names of the Supreme. Very easy, and very powerful. If you would like to try this meditation contact us.
