To cleanse and rest the digestive system our ancient rishis started this ceelbration.It is not just to cleanse ,it has multiple benefits.
We celebrate - upavasa on that day.Upa means proximity and vasa means dwelling.dwelling to greater proximity to God is -upavasa.
And the day is most suited to do this.

God made many things





All things small and big,ugly and beautiful have been around for centuries and will be.
Did they just come into being or did some one make them ? Life is a wonder and it will continue to be so.
If a rose has thorns it is how God made it ,but it also so welcoming just as other beautiful things but a lotus stands for serenity so on,life is a big wonder.

Life is worth living

If you look at a mountain invincible then you feel the presence of a super power -may be God.
Can a mountain be termed God ?
You can break up or destory a mountain so can we break up God ?
So either change the description of God or don't call a mountain God,call a mountain -a mountain.
Can you find God in a hermitage ? Do they teach you the method to reach God ?
THe nature around is so beautiful,can we say that beauty is God ?

Questions one should ponder



Why deos a baby keep smiling without reason ?
Why does a flower bloom on that particular hour ?
Does a cat really have nine lives ?
Or you can have a million questions and as many answers.Why do you have questions and asnwers so unique and equally important ones ?
Life is so simple yet we make it complicated.
Life is beautiful but we try to search an ugly side.
Life is full of surprises but we try to find out these before time.
Belief in God makes life more meaningful,beautiful and fruitful.

Service to mankind is service to God -Akshaya
Akshaya means -that which never diminshes or never decreases.This term itself shows what service they want to take up here.
The Akshaya Patra in Mysore was established on 16th of August, 2004, which would feed over 300 children in a school. With the passing of days, it has grown bigger and better and at present it serves food to 3000 children everyday.
Initially established in New York, the Iskcon Temple was founded by Swami Prabhupada There are over 40 Iskcon Temples across the country.
