A father said to his daughter “You have graduated with honors, here is a car I bought many years ago. It is pretty old now. But before I give it to you, take it to the used car lot downtown and tell them I want to sell it and see how much they offer you for it.”
The daughter went to the used car lot, returned to her father and said, “They offered me ₹50,000 because the said it looks pretty out-dated and worn out.”
The father said, now “Take it to the pawn shop.” The daughter went to the pawn shop, returned to her father and said,”The pawn shop offered only ₹15,000 because it is an old car.”
The father asked his daughter to go to a car club now and show them the car. The daughter then took the car to the club, returned and told her father,” Some people in the club offered as much as ₹3,50,000 for it because “it's an iconic car and sought by many collectors.”
And then the father told his daughter,“The right place values you the right way,”If you are not valued, do not be angry,it means you are in the wrong place.Those who know your value are those who appreciate you...Never stay in a place where no one sees your value. #knowyourworth
The most famous Siddhivinayak mandir of Prabhadevi, Mumbai ... then & now..
This divine shrine was originally built in1801. The original structure of the Siddhivinayak Temple was a small 3.6 metre x 3.6 metre square brick structure with a dome-shaped brick shikhara.
The temple was built by the contractor Laxman Vithu Patil. The building was funded by a rich Agri woman named Deubai Patil. Childless due to infertility, Deaubai built the temple so that Ganesha could grant children to other infertile women.
Ramakrishna Jambhekar Maharaj, a disciple of the Hindu saint Akkalkot Swami Samarth, buried two divine idols in the front of the presiding deity of the temple on the orders of his guru.
People help you the way they know to help you. To help you to come out of stress, one friend will ask you to drink and another will ask you to meditate.
To overcome hurt, one friend will ask you to take revenge and get even, and another will ask you to forgive and get ahead with your life. ‘Who is your fallback’ makes all the difference.
Duryodhana’s predicament, in his own words, was, “I know what is right but I am not able to indulge in it. I know what is wrong but I am not able to avoid it.” He needed a fallback. His fallback was his Mama Shakuni, and resultantly, Duryodhana moved from bad to worse.

FAITH & SHRI KRISHNA. The battlefield of Kurukshetra was being prepared for combat.Elephants were being used to uproot trees & clear the ground. When a tree was thus uprooted,a sparrow’s nest flew to the ground.But her chicks remained miraculously unharmed.
The vulnerable & apprehensive sparrow saw Shri Krishna & pleaded for help.“Please save my children, O Krishna, or they'll be crushed when the battle starts”. “I understand your plight but I cannot go against the flow of the natural order,” said Shri Krishna.
You are the law, time & the entire universe all in one O Lord, the fate of my children is now in your hands,” cried the sparrow. “In that case,” said Shri Krishna, “stock food for 3 weeks in your nest”. The little sparrow flew away gratified.
36 years post the Kurukshetra war when the Yadava clan ended up killing each other & even Balrama an incarnation of Adi Sesha left the mortal world Lord Krishna laid down under a tree and went into Yoga Samadhi.
At that time a hunter named Jara entered the forest. That hunter misunderstood the moving foot of Krishna as a deer and shot a lethal arrow that pierced into Krishna’s feet. As soon as the hunter reached The Lord he realised his mistake and pleaded the lord for forgiveness.
Lord Krishna consoles him and tells him how his death was inevitable.
Krishna says that in his previous birth as Rama in the Tretayuga, Rama killed Vaali (Sugreeva's brother) from behind a tree.
#KARMA Gandhari had to endure the deaths of her children being helpless. Why ? As per Lord Krishna, long back, while cooking rice, she had poured hot water of the boiled rice on the ground outside her kitchen.This hot water killed all the hundred eggs laid by an insect. #KARMA
This earned her the wrath of mother insect who is supposed to have cursed her that she too would have to endure the deaths of her sons. #KARMA
According another local rendition of Mahabharata from the East, she was cursed by the mother turtle whose eggs, Gandhari had once crushed one by one while sitting on a rock (under which the eggs were laid ) #KARMA
