Are we really
advancing
in right direction ?
Why there is much
chaos & confusion
in society
Foolish so-called civilized me

proprietary rights
on the property of God
because they have
now become
godless.
You cannot be
happy and peacefu
in a godless society
In the Bhagavad-gétä Lord Kåñëa says
He is the :
1) factual enjoyer
2) Supreme Lord of all universes, and
3) well-wishing friend of all beings.

ORAL QUIZ: What Lessons did you learn
by making the comparison between the
Government of your country and the
Universal Government ?
1.The universe we are living in is owned and
controlled by the Supreme Lord.
2.Just as there is a Prime Minister for any
government, similarly there is Supreme Lord who is
the presiding authority of the whole universe.
3.When we ignore the laws of any government or
Prime minister, one invites punishment; similarly by
ignoring God and the laws of nature, modern man is
inviting sufferings in this world more and more.
4.The sufferings we undergo are a proof that we are
going against the will of God and some steps need to
be taken to rectify our wrong mentality. The reform
is to give up selfish, exploitative, enjoying, grabbing
approach and to adopt the selfless, extending,
serving, giving nature.
5.We should hear from the manual of God –
Bhagavad gita – to know how can we again
harmonize our lives according to His will.
