Arjun and Duryodhan went to Krishna’s BEDROOM to ask for his help!! Isn’t it funny? 

 

Dear Fellow Travellers,

 

Namaste! When we read certain scriptures like MAHABHARAT – we get carried away in the story rather than listening to it with attention and questioning the significance of the same. One such incident in Mahabharat was before WAR – ARJUN and DURYODHAN went to LORD KRISHAN for help in their WAR. 

 

The most interesting aspect is – KRISHNA was sleeping. In other words – they must have gone in the morning or afternoon (assuming Krishna was taking a NAP post LUNCH). In any case – it’s too much to go to somebody’s bedroom when he is sleeping and that too when you need help from him. 

 

In today’s time – we just can’t walk into somebody’s home or office without an appointment or informing him. How many of you can imagine going to somebody’s house in the morning when he was sleeping and having the audacity to go to his bedroom when you need help? 

 

What is my understanding? 

 

Krishna is Consciousness. It’s always there in our heart. Before doing anything – it always indicates the right and wrong way of doing things or actions. 

 

The incident is about choosing the right path. Krishna opened his eyes and saw the ARJUN first. So, the answer was clear from KRISHNA’s behaviour only. Our consciousness – if awakened – always guides us properly. 

To go for the army was the logical and apparently good strategic decision by DURYODHAN. There was no use of KRISHNA in the WAR as he was not going to fight. ARJUN chose Krishna. He was a fool in terms of DURYODHAN’s way of looking.  But ARJUN's apparent foolish decision made him win the war. When you listen to your consciousness - things will turn out in your favour in the end.  

 

In the materialist world of cost and benefits – it’s DURYODHAN’s mentality which will be seen as prevailing. Normally, it’s easy to allow consciousness to sleep while we make the decisions. 

 

How does this impact your investment performance? 

 

I have been working as an investment advisor for about 35 years now. I have been guiding astrology and vastu for about 30 years now. In both the areas – I have got the best track record. 

 

But when I look back – certain friends have stuck to me  from 1996 onwards till today. We have created good wealth in these years. We have grown together. It was a WIN-WIN journey. We have seen the fall of 2000. Lower circuit of 2004/2006 and big mandi of 2008. We have seen the lower circuit and fall of CORONA time also. Those who were like ARJUN – they maintained their commitment to me. 

 

When I look back at my Astrology and Vastu clients – those who have been with me all throughout – they have seen the HOLISTIC growth in their life and happiness thanks to our timely inputs and their faith in us to follow the same. 

 

All my personal consultants are the same from 1992 till today. With my long association with them – they know me and my likings in a much better way. Today I just have to call them and the solution is ready. This is the advantage of the long term associations. 

 

If you want to be successful – have at least one consultant for a minimum of 3 years without worrying about the FEES / PROFIT and LOSS. His one insight will make good all your expenses on the fees. 

 

What NEXT? 

 

Each of our scriptures have deep meanings. That’s why we do PATH of GEETA and path of various stotra. The more you do PATH or READING – the more meaning will come to you. Many people I know have been doing GEETA PATH for 60 years and more. 

 

I was also thinking about the above incident and suddenly the meaning came that our consciousness is sleeping and when we ask – it always says the best thing to do first (the way Krishna saw ARJUN first).

 

Think of every incident like this. Maybe you may get some different meanings.
