Divine Guidance

Why did the Pandavas win the battle of Mahabharat?

They were brave.. They were determined..they were fighting for their rights.. But this was not sufficient., there was something more they had

What we would call ad the divine guidance

They had the firm support of the Lord himself.. And wherever there is divine support, nothing can go wrong. 

Shri Krishna guided Arjun to break the cycle of fear and worries and to ho ahead and fight the battle. Arjun was a great warrior, but he was a human being like you and me. He had his own fears,concerns, insecurities. He had his own share of ' what ifs' and ' hows'

But he still stood firm and fought the battle. This could only happen because he followed the divine guidance

To quote a verse from Geeta, in Sanskrit( the ancient Indian language) 

"yatra yogeshwara krishno yatra partho dhanurdharah tatra shrirvijayo bhutihi dhruvanitir matir mama "

Which is translated as "Where there is Sri Krishna, the Lord of Yoga and Arjuna, armed with his bow, there reign good fortune, victory and good policy, this is my conviction"

Very often we forget to listen to the divine guidance. Divine guidance is all around us. But we have so many fears surrounding us. These fears come from a place called illusion... They come from apprehension about the future, which stops us from fighting our wars. We often term this fears or worries as " practical approach" or "reality check" . Who told you what is practical? Some Skeptic who surrendered himself to these fears?

We all have Krishna within us. The tiny part of us which we often refer as higher self. This higher self pleads to be heard. But our ego doesnt let us listen to it. Instead it focusses on worry , anger, resentment, concern and gets anxious. Anxiety wont arise if we listen to our divine guidance or our Krishna.

Listen more..let not the negative emotions overpower you..pay attention to your Krishna.. Smile more.. Fear less

Stay blessed.. You are the co creator of your life
