REPLY:

You are praying Krishna for small demands & then feeling for failures!

All problems are with you only, not with the God.  You only are careless.

Why Krishna gives failure? He does not give willingly.

You say that your instruments broke in your practical exam.  Why?  Did Krishna come and pull it down?  No.  You handled it carelessly.  So, it fell down.  Why do you blame Krishna?

You say that when you tried to take print out of your project work, the printer failed to work.  What to do?  It must have gone under repair.  Isn’t there any other way? Take a copy of the file of that project and take to a DTP center and take Print out.  Just Rs.100-200 may be needed for that.  Problem over.

So, all you have mentioned are very small problems and careless mistakes.  Very silly mistakes.  Please don’t drag God, particularly Krishna for these silly reasons.  You are Praying Krishna for small demands when Krishna is waiting to give you an ETERNAL  & BLISSFUL LIFE ITSELF IN GOLOKA.

“Krishna, today the question paper should be easy.”
(Why can’t you prepare well?)

“Krishna, today, the school bus should come in time.”
(Oh, today, you have come in time; Had you delayed, you would have prayed that the bus should not have gone.)

“Krishna, today the tip of my pencil should not break while drawing diagrams.”
(Why can’t you take a spare pencil that cost very less?)

Krishna, today I  have not brought umbrella; So, the rain should not come.
(Had you brought the umbrella, you would have enjoyed the rain)

Krishna, today, the food should be good in the college canteen.
(You should bring food, because the canteen has its own menu & quality)

Krishna will be smiling hearing your prayers.

So, Have big desires.  These small problems are due to your own carelessness & mistakes.

If you like to catch the bus, start from home early and go to bus stand atleast 15 minutes before the time of the bus.

If you like to avoid  fall down , put every foot carefully and firmly.

If you like to avoid accidents, walk on the pedestrian path only and drive following traffic rules.

If you like to avoid forgetting the lessons in the exam hall, start preparing in the first month of the academic year also and revise more.

If you don’t like to meet a police, lead a dignified and controlled life.

If you like to avoid morning tension, wake up an hour early and so, you will get an hour more to work.

Thus, you can avoid the tension and all the small problems if you rightly plan and carefully live in this world.  We only are the cause for our problems.

Krishna gives failure to set you right.

So, be careful hereafter.   All the best.
