Never Give up, because its never too late to start

At the age of sixty nine when everyone is thinking to retire not from the job but from the life as well, he gives life’s one more try, he came to America with 7 dollars in hand, knowing no one, with absolutely no visible means of support, no friends, no followers there, not his youth, not good health (survival of two times heart attack) or even not a clear idea of how he would accomplish his far-reaching objective to present the spiritual knowledge of the Bhagavad-Gita to the entire world.

Only one thing is clear in his mind that is his ultimate goal, which is to establish an International Society for Krishna Consciousness, which will be open for anyone including women.

After almost a year of great difficulty . He established the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, in July of 1966. Before his passing away on November 14, 1977, he guided the Society and saw it grow to a worldwide confederation of more than one hundred ashrams, schools, temples, institutes and farm communities.

Srila Prabhupada was an Indian spiritual teacher who founded the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Also known as Abhay Charanaravinda Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, he is counted among the most prominent Vedic scholars, translators, and teachers of the modern era. Credited with translating and commenting on over 80 volumes of the Vedas' most important sacred bhakti texts, including the Bhagavad Gita and Srimad-Bhagavatam, he is regarded as the world’s most prominent contemporary authority on bhakti-yoga

If you’re breathing and able to read these words, then it is not too late for you to go after what you want. In fact, it will never be too late because there is no such thing as “too late” when it comes to pursuing your dreams or to fulfill your goal of life.

Success comes to those who dedicate everything to their passion in life

Most people get interested in what they like, but only few of them make real commitment. The difference between interest and commitment is the will not to give up.

As long as you believe you can do things, they’re not impossible

Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had devastated the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be a cripple throughout his life. But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be a cripple. Much to be the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs just dangled there, lifeless. Ultimately he was discharged from the hospital. But his determination to walk was indomitable. At home, when he was not in bed, he was confined to a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. He reached the picket fence, raised himself up and then stake by stake, he began dragging himself along the fence, his resolve to walk undeterred. He did this every day, with faith in himself ...

It is the power of responsibility that a man transforms wasteland into the dense forest

Floods come with untold suffering and immense miseries to the people. Their belongings are washed away. Houses collapse and people are rendered homeless. Many men, women, children and cattle are swept away by the current of the river. Floods destroy crops standing in the fields and cause famine. They also cause epidemics. Many people lose their resources and tools and thus lose their occupation. It is a very pitiable sight to see cattle being washed away by the current of the river during the floods. But the most scary & nasty scene appears, when waters all around receded, reptiles which came with water at the time of floods, now starts dying in absence of their shelter. A little more than 30 years ago, way back in 1979 in Assam, floods washed a large number of reptiles ashore on the sandbar. One day, after the waters had receded, a 16 year old teenager named Jadav "Molai" Payeng found the place dotted with the dead reptiles all over. The snakes died because of ...
