A rare conversation between Krishna & Today's Arjuna.

1. Arjuna :- I can't find free time. Life has become hectic.

Krishna :- Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you free.

2. Arjuna :- Why has life become complicated now?

Krishna :- Stop analyzing life... It makes it complicated. Just live it.

3. Arjuna :- Why are we then constantly unhappy?

Krishna :- Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not happy.

4. Arjuna :- Why do good people always suffer?

Krishna :- Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer.
With that experience their life becomes better, no bitter.

5: Arjuna :- You mean to say such experience is useful?

Krishna :- Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. It gives the test first and the lessons later.

6. Arjuna :- Because of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading...

Krishna :- If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides the way.

7. Arjuna :-Does failure hurt more than moving in the right direction?

Krishna :- Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you.

8. Arjuna :- In tough times, how do you stay motivated?

Krishna :- Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessings, not what you are missing.

9. Arjuna :- What surprises you bout people?

Krishna :- When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me?''

10. Arjuna :- How can I get the best out of life?

Krishna :- Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.

11. Arjuna :- One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered.

Krishna :- There are no unanswered prayers. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Life is a mystery to solve, not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live.

Stay Blessed & Happy..!!
