The first step for us Indians to learn spirituality will be to learn how to drive with patience, to give way to others and be more sensible while driving.
This might sound like a small change, but every small change has behavioral effects which have snowball effects, the society without compassion is not going to reach any destination.
I have seen everytime you will do act of stopping your vehicle and give way to others, The amount of thankyou you get makes your day, You need to do this for your own mental health.
This is the first time I am asking everyone to retweet this- forget the government; we as a society need to change first. #driving #vehicles

In this thread, I will be posting the verses of Yakṣapraśna: from Mahābhāratam. These are the questions asked by Yakṣa to Yudhiṣṭhira to have his brothers come back to life. These questions are in simple Sanskrit Q-A format , so it will be useful for beginners Sanskrit students. Also they are rhyming and hence enjoyable.
I am mighty Time, the source of destruction that comes forth to annihilate the worlds. Even without your participation, the warriors arrayed in the opposing army shall cease to exist.
In response to Arjun’s question regarding who he is, Shree Krishna reveals his nature as all-powerful Time, the destroyer of the universe.
Time counts and controls the lifespan of all beings. It will determine when the great personalities like Bhishma, Dronacharya, and Karna will meet their end.
It will destroy the enemy army arrayed on the battlefield even without Arjun’s participation in the fight because the Lord wants it to happen as a part of his grand scheme for the world.
Therefore, arise and attain honour! Conquer your foes and enjoy prosperous rulership. These warriors stand already slain by Me, and you will only be an instrument of My work, O expert archer.
Shree Krishna has revealed to Arjun his will that the evil Kauravas should perish, he has already decided the annihilation of the unrighteous and the victory of the righteous as the outcome of the battle.
His grand scheme for the welfare of the world cannot be averted by any means.
He now informs Arjun that he wishes him to be the nimitta-mātram, or the instrument of his work. God does not need the help of a human for his work, but humans attain eternal welfare by working to fulfil God’s wish.
Opportunities that come our way to accomplish something for the pleasure of the Lord are a very special blessing. It is by taking these opportunities that we attract his special grace.
[[ Bhagavad Gita Chapter 11 Verse 33 ]]
When things you don't want to happen, happens, how do you respond?
Do you fatalistically blame it on destiny and accept it, or take initiative to overcome it?
What is the guiding principle in the fate vs free will debate?
What did Sri Rama do in such circumstances? (1/11)
@mechirubhat I too was blessed to listen him singing in Onkareshwar temple last month. We actually were sitting beside him inside the temple sanctum.
I must say I have never heard someone singing soulfully before !
Om Shanti 🙏
