एक बार की बात है। एक गांव में रघु नाम का आदमी रहता था । वह हमेशा परेशान रहता था । वह सारा दिन यही सोचता रहता था कि उसका भविष्य में क्या होगा? वह अपनी जिंदगी में कहां तक पहुंच पाएगा ? उसे समझ नहीं आता कि वह ऐसा क्या करें ? जिससे वह अपने आने वाले कल को अच्छा कर सकें।इसीलिए वह हर रोज मंदिर जाकर भगवान से कहता कि मैं ऐसा क्यों हूं । मेरी जिंदगी की क्या कीमत है ?वह हर रोज बस यही सवाल पूछता और गुस्सा होकर अपने घर की ओर वापस आ जाता । एक दिन भगवान  को उस पर दया आई और उसके सामने प्रकट हो गए ।  उसने भगवान को हाथ जोडकर प्रणाम किया और फिर यही सवाल पूछा कि भगवान मेरी जिंदगी की क्या कीमत है। मैं अपने जीवन को लेकर इतना दुखी क्यों रहता हूं। आपने मुझे ऐसी जिंदगी क्यों दी। तो भगवान ने रघु को एक पत्थर देते हुए कहा कि जाओ इसको सामने वाली दुकान पर बेच कर आओ । अगर तुम से किसी ने पूछा कि इसका क्या मोल है ? तो कुछ मत कहना बस अपने हाथ की दो अंगुलिया उठा देना । रघु ने ऐसा ही किया वह सामने की दुकान पर गया और वहां पर खड़े दुकानदार को वह पत्थर दिया और कहा कि क्या आप यह पत्थर खरीदना चाहोगे ? तो दुकानदार ने उस पत्थर को देखा और तुरंत जवाब दिया कि यह पत्थर मेरी बीवी के बगीचे में काम आ सकता है। मैं इसको जरूर खरीद लूंगा । लेकिन तुम इस पत्थर के कितने दाम लोगे ? रघु कुछ नहीं बोलता और अपनी दो उंगली उठा देता है । तभी दुकानदार कहता रु 20 कोई बात नहीं । मैं इस पत्थर को खरीद लूंगा । परंतु रघु उस पत्थर को नहीं बेचता और उसको लेकर के वापिस भगवान जी के पास चला जाता है। और कहता है कि वह सामने वाला दुकानदार इसको रु 20 में खरीदना चाहता है । तभी भगवान कहते हैं कि जाओ अब तुम इस पत्थर को बाजार में लेकर जाओ और बेच कर आओ । वो फिर से भगवान जी का कहना मानकर बाजार में जाता है और वहां पर एक दुकान में जाकर दुकान के मालिक से कहता है कि मैं इस पत्थर को बेचना चाहता हूं । तो मालिक उस पत्थर को लेता है और कुछ समय तक बड़े गौर से देखता है । और कहता है कि यह पत्थर बहुत अच्छा है । मेरे पास ऐसा एक भी पत्थर नहीं है । ये पत्थर मेरे कागजों को उड़ाने से बचाने में काम आएगा । मैं यह पत्थर जरूर खरीद लूंगा । तुम बताओ तुम इस पत्थर की क्या कीमत लोगे ? तभी रघु अपनी दो उंगलियां उठा देता है और दुकानदार कहता है कि ₹2000 । दुकान का मालिक कहता है कि वैसे तो इस पत्थर के लिए 2000 ज्यादा कीमत है पर फिर भी मैं यह लेने को तैयार हूं । क्योंकि यह पत्थर देखने में बहुत ही सुंदर लग रहा है। रघु हैरान हो जाता है । और पत्थर लेकर वापिस भगवान जी के पास आ जाता है । और कहता है कि बाजार का दुकानदार मुझसे यह पत्थर 2000 रुपए  में खरीदने के लिए राजी हो गया है । भगवान मुस्कुराते हुए कहते हैं कि अब तुम इस पत्थर को लेकर शहर के सबसे बडे जौहरी के पास जाओ और उसे ये पत्थर बेच कर आओ । रघु कहता है कि जब बाजार का दुकानदार इस पत्थर को लेने के लिए तैयार हो गया है तो फिर जौहरी के पास जाने की क्या जरूरत है ? तभी भगवान जी कहते हैं कि तुम जाओ तो सही । रघु भगवान जी के कहे अनुसार शहर के सबसे बड़े जौहरी के पास जाता है । वहां जाकर वो उनके सामने वह पत्थर रख देता है । जौहरी जैसे ही उस पत्थर को देखते हैं । वे बहुत ज्यादा चौंक जाते हैं और उस पत्थर को हाथ में लेकर बड़े ध्यान से देखने लगते हैं । जौहरी को इस तरह देखकर रघु को थोड़ा अजीब लगता है । इसीलिए रघु जौहरी से पूछता है कि आप इस पत्थर को इस तरह क्यों देख रहे हैं ? तभी जौहरी रघु से कहते हैं कि तुम्हें यह पत्थर कहां से मिला है ? यह विश्व के सबसे कीमती पत्थरों में से एक है  । और यह पत्थर सिर्फ इकलौता ऐसा पत्थर है जो कहीं भी नहीं मिलता । इस पत्थर से करोड़ों के आभूषण बन सकते हैं ।मैं इस पत्थर को खरीदना चाहता हूं । तुम इसकी क्या कीमत लोगे ? तभी रघु कुछ नहीं कहता और अपने दो उंगली उठा देता है और जोहरी कहता है दो करोड़ । ठीक है मैं इस पत्थर के दो करोड़ देने को तैयार हूं । जोहरी की इस बात को सुनकर रघु के पैरों तले जमीन खिसक जाती है । और उसको विश्वास नहीं होता ।इसीलिए वह उस पत्थर को लेकर भगवान जी के पास जाता है और कहता है कि ऐसा कैसे हो सकता है ।  वह जौहरी इस पत्थर को खरीदने के लिए 2 करोड रुपए देने को तैयार हो गया । तभी भगवान जी मुस्कुराते हैं और कहते हैं कि क्या अब तुम्हें अपनी जिंदगी की कीमत समझ में आई ? पर रघु कुछ भी नहीं समझ पाता । इसीलिए भगवान उसे कहते हैं कि रघु तुम्हारी जिंदगी इस बात पर निर्भर करती है कि तुम अपने आप को किस स्थान पर रखते हो । अगर तुम अपने आप को एक छोटे स्थान पर रखोगे । तो तुम्हारी कीमत उसके अनुसार होगी । लेकिन अगर तुम अपने आप को जोहरी के जैसे बड़े स्थान पर रखोगे तो तुम्हारी कीमत उसके अनुसार ही होगी । तो जिंदगी में हमेशा बड़ा करने की सोचो और खुद को अच्छे लोगों और अच्छी संगति में रखो ताकि भविष्य में तुम एक नेक और कामयाब इंसान बन सको ।

Once upon a time. There lived a man named Raghu in a village. He was always upset. He used to think all day that what would happen to him in the future? How far will he reach in his life? He doesn't understand what to do? So that he can make his future better. That is why he would go to the temple every day and ask God why I am like this. What is the value of my life? He would ask this question every day and come back to his house in anger. One day God took pity on him and appeared before him. He bowed to God with folded hands and then asked the same question that God is the value of my life. Why am I so sad about my life? Why did you give me such a life? So God gave a stone to Raghu and said that go and sell it at the shop in front. If someone asked you what is it worth? So don't say anything, just raise two fingers of your hand. Raghu did the same, he went to the shop in front and gave that stone to the shopkeeper standing there and said would you like to buy this stone? So the shopkeeper saw that stone and immediately replied that this stone can be useful in my wife's garden. I will definitely buy this. But how much will you pay for this stone? Raghu does not say anything and raises his two fingers. Then the shopkeeper says Rs 20, no problem. I will buy this stone. But Raghu does not sell that stone and takes it back to Lord ji. And says that the shopkeeper in front wants to buy it for Rs.20. Then God says that go now you take this stone in the market and sell it. He again goes to the market obeying God ji and goes to a shop there and tells the owner of the shop that I want to sell this stone. So the master takes that stone and observes it very carefully for some time. And says that this stone is very good. I don't have a single stone like this. This stone will come in handy to save my papers from blowing up. I will definitely buy this stone. Tell me what will you cost for this stone? Then Raghu raises his two fingers and the shopkeeper says that ₹ 2000. The owner of the shop says that although the price of this stone is 2000 more but still I am ready to take it. Because this stone looks very beautiful to see. Raghu gets shocked. And with the stone comes back to Lord ji. And says that the shopkeeper of the market has agreed to buy this stone from me for Rs 2000. God smiles and says that now you go to the biggest jeweler of the city with this stone and sell this stone to him. Raghu says that when the shopkeeper of the market has agreed to take this stone, then what is the need to go to the jeweler? Only then God says that if you go then you are right. Raghu goes to the biggest jeweler of the city as per the instructions of Bhagwan ji. Going there, he puts that stone in front of them. As soon as the jeweler sees that stone. He is very much shocked and takes that stone in his hand and starts watching it very carefully. Raghu feels a bit strange seeing Johri like this. That's why Raghu asks the jeweler that why are you looking at this stone like this? Then the jeweler says to Raghu that from where did you get this stone? It is one of the most precious stones in the world. And this stone is the only stone which is not found anywhere. Jewelery worth crores can be made from this stone. I want to buy this stone. What will you cost for it? Then Raghu does not say anything and raises his two fingers and Johri says two crores. Well I am ready to give two crores of this stone. Hearing this from Johri, the ground slips under Raghu's feet. And he does not believe it. That's why he takes that stone and goes to Lord ji and says how can this happen. The jeweler agreed to pay Rs 2 crore to buy this stone. Then God smiles and says that now do you understand the value of your life? But Raghu cannot understand anything. That's why God tells him that Raghu, your life depends on where you keep yourself. If you put yourself in a small place. So your price will be accordingly. But if you put yourself in a big place like Johri then your price will be accordingly. So always think of doing big in life and keep yourself in good people and good company so that in future you can become a noble and successful person.

How did demonic putna get heaven ? who was putna in his last birth ?

 

Putna demonic was the daughter of King Bali in a previous life. It is a matter of when King Bali, who was the grandson of the devotee Prahlad, was performing the Asvamedha Yagya. To get the full fruit of his sacrifice, he did not send any beggar from his door empty-handed. When Lord Vaman was incarnated and he came to King Bali's door asking for three steps of land, the daughter of King Bali saw him and thought that I wish! If he were my son, I would have given him my milk. Lord Vaman Dev accepted this feeling of his. But when Vaman Dev made his form huge to measure the land three steps. Then he measured the whole creation in the first and second step, then he asked King Bali what should he measure in his third step?. Then Vaman Dev placed the third step on his head as per the statement of King Bali. And in the third step, he measured King Bali. And made him the king of Hades. On this his daughter got very angry and thought came in her mind that if I had such a son, I would have killed him by drinking poison. Lord Vaman also accepted this sentiment of her and said in his mind that it should be so. Then in the next birth, Putna, the daughter of King Bali, became a demonic. When Lord Krishna was born. And he was brought secretly at night to Nanda Baba's house in Gokul. Krishna's birth was celebrated at Nanda Baba's house. According to sky prophacy, Kans was afraid of his death from Lord Krishna. So he sent many demons to kill him. But they could not harm Lord Krishna. Then Kans sent the demon Putna to kill Lord Krishna. Putna's job was to kill small children by drinking poison. Similarly she wanted to kill Lord Krishna. She came to Nand Baba's house as a beautiful girl, putting poison in her breasts. And spoke to Yashoda that she is a perfect Brahmin and she wants to bless Krishna by drinking her milk. As soon as he made Lord Krishna drink milk containing her poison, the Lord took away the poison as well as her life. Lord Krishna gave the same place to the demon Putna, which he had thought for Mother Yashoda and Mother Devaki.

So devotees, according to this story, we get to learn that the way we worship God, God accepts us with same the feeling.

A OLD MAN STORY | BEST AND TRANDING STORY | VIRAL STORY

 

Once upon a time an old father went to live with his son and daughter-in-law in their city. Due to his very old age, his hands started trembling and he could see less. His son and daughter-in-law lived in a small house. He also had a 4-year-old grandson. They used to eat food every day sitting together. So he also started eating food with them. But due to old age, that person had a lot of difficulty in eating. While eating, the grains used to fall down from the spoon and his hand used to tremble. Sometimes even milk used to fall from his hand. So the son and his wife continued to bear all this for a few days. But after a few days, he started hating his father for these works. Then the son said that we have to do something for them and his wife also said yes to him. And said how long we will continue to gritty our food because of them. Because of old father, so many things have been lost or broken to us and all this is not seen from me. So the next day the son put up an old table for his father in the corner of the room. And told his old father that father, you sit here and eat food, since then the old father started eating his food sitting alone. Even wooden utensils were given to him to eat and drink so that they would not be damaged if they broke. And those three people started eating as before. Whenever son and daughter-in-law used to look at their old father, some tears would come in their eyes but still they did not change their mind. They used to tell them many things because of their small mistakes. His 4-year-old son used to watch all this very carefully. So one day before eating, the younger son sat down with his parents on the ground and started doing something. Then the son's father asked what are you making this, the child replied with innocence that I am making a wooden bowl for you guys. So that when you are old I can give you food in it and saying that the child resumed his work. This had a profound effect on his parents. Not a single word came out of his and her wife mouth and tears started flowing from their eyes. Both of them realized their mistake, without saying anything, both of them understood what they had to do. That night he brought his old father back to the dinner table and did not misbehave with him.

 Our life is also like this, whether we do good deeds or bad deeds. We have to bear the fruits of our actions in this birth. That is why in time, change your bad deeds into good deeds because if time changes then there will be a lot of trouble.

FROM WHOM LORD SHIVA BAGGED |

 

This story is from when Lord Shankar and Lordess Parvati often played dice on Mount Kailash. So one day, there was an argument between Lord Shankar and  Parvati about the importance of nature and the superiority of man. Because Lord Shankar was emphasizing on the superiority of man, Lord Shankar told Parvati that the world is an illusion.

Nature is an illusion. Everything is a mirage, here the moment comes and goes, even the food is an illusion. Lordess  Parvati, who is the Lordess  of all material things including food, got furious on hearing the words of Lord Shiva. Then Lordess  Parvati said, "If I am just an illusion, then let's see how you and the rest of the world live without me," saying that she disappeared from the world.

Miss Her disappearance caused an outcry in the universe. Time stood still, the change of seasons stopped, the earth became barren and there was a terrible drought. There was no food available in the three worlds of sky, Hades and earth. The gods, demons and humans were suffering from hunger.

The world was deprived of food and there was famine everywhere. When the followers of Lord Shankar started begging him for food, Lord Shankar went door to door begging for food for the followers. But no one had anything to give. Lord Vishnu said to Lord Shankar. I have heard that a woman in Kashi has started donating food for people. Lord Shankar went to Kashi to beg for food, but when he came to know that there was no one else running the kitchen but his wife Parvati.

She was dressed in purple and brown robes and adorned with ornaments, and she was seated on a throne, serving food one by one to the hungry Gods and the hungry inhabitants of the earth. She also fed her sons Kartikeya and Ganesha.

This beautiful form of lordess Parvati was none other than Goddess Annapurna. Annapurna offered food to Shiva in the form of Donation, and the goddess was pleased and said that "I will reside in Kashi in the form of Annapurna."

LORD KRISHNA AND MILLET PORRIDGE , LORD JAGGANNATH , SPRITUAL STORY

 

It's a long time ago. A Jatt farmer lived in a village in Rajasthan. He had a daughter. Whose name was Karmabai. She was very young in age. Her father used to offer bhog to Lord Krishna before having his meal. Then later used to eat himself. One day he had to go to another village for some work. While leaving, he went to tell his daughter that maybe it will be night for me to come, so you should offer Lord Krishna and eat food only after that. Daughter said okay father, I will do the same. Karmabai could not know anything other than millet porridge. That's why he made porridge of millet. And put the porridge in front of Lord Krishna to enjoy. She prayed to God please ate it. But the porridge remained as it was on the plate. On the other hand, Karmabai was feeling very hungry. Then she thought that there is no less ghee in the porridge today. Father would be offering it by adding more ghee. So she put more ghee in the porridge but the porridge remained the same. Lord Krishna did not eat it. Karmabai started crying loudly. And started saying that O’Lord krishna, if I have made any mistake, please forgive me and enjoy porridge. Hearing the call of the little girl, Lord krishna felt pity and came in the form of a small child and started offering it. Then Karmabai also had dinner. When her father came, he asked Karmabai whether she had offered bhog to God or not. She said yes father, God had eaten. And said that from now I will offer Bhog to God. Now every day Karmabai started feeding porridge to Lord krishna. Lord krishna would come as a child and go away after eating porridge. One day his father saw Lord krishna eating porridge as a child. And bowed to him with folded hands and gave up his life. After that Karma Bai was left alone. After a few years, Karmabai left that village and started living in Jagannath Puri. She would make porridge for Lord krishna every morning as per the rules and offer her bhog. She was getting old with the passage of time. She used to take time to prepare food in the morning routine bath etc. Lord krishna used to take the form of a child and used to sit beside her and used to say Lordess , cook food fast, I am feeling very hungry, she said that now I am old, now I do not cook food quickly. Lord krishna said Lordess , now you don't take bath etc. in the morning, first make me porridge. Take a shower afterwards. That day Lord krishna ate porridge in a hurry because he had to go to the temple before the priest opened the doors. So in haste, porridge remained on Lord krishna's face. When the priest saw it, he thought that no one has offered Bhog to Lord yet. So where did this porridge on the face of God come from? On the same night, in the dream of the priest, Jagannath God told about Karmabai's porridge. One day a monk came to Karma Bai's door and saw that she was making porridge for the Lord without taking a bath. The sage said you should take a bath and prepare food. Karmabai said that God has told me that now you should cook food without taking bath. Hearing this, the sage said that I am such a great ascetic, but till date God has not appeared to me and you say that God takes food prepared by your hands without taking your bath. The monk insulted her a lot and all the villagers also started laughing at her because no one believed in this. On the same night, in the dream of the sage, God came and asked Karmabai to apologize. The next day the sage went to Karmabai and apologized and said that you owe me a lot, which today because of you God appeared to me in my dream.

Karmabai died a few years later. Coming to the temple, when the priest saw that Lord Jagannath's eyes were flowing with tears, he immediately called the king. Both the king and the priest started saying with folded hands in front of God that O Lord Jagannath, what crime has happened to us that you have tears in your eyes. On the same night, Lord Jagannath appeared in the dream of the king and the priest and told about the death of Karmabai and said that I liked the porridge made by her. Karmabai has gone to my abode after death, now who will feed me by making millet porridge. The next morning the king told the priest that every morning from now onwards, he would offer millet porridge to the Lord in the name of Karmabai. Even today, in Jagannath Puri, Lord Jagannath enjoys only millet porridge.

So devotees, God is hungry for emotion. Even if you feed them porridge with love, they also accept it as sweet.
