Aradhana
Sometimes we wonder, "What did I do to deserve this?" or "Why did God have to do this to me?" Here is a wonderful explanation!
A daughter is telling her Mother how everything is going wrong, she's failing in algebra, and her best friend is moving away. Meanwhile, her Mother is baking a cake and asks her daughter if she would like a snack, and the daughter says, "Absolutely Mom, I love your cake"
"Here, have some cooking oil," her Mother offers."Yuck" says her daughter.
"Would you like some flour then?" "Gross, Mom!" "Or maybe baking soda?"
"Mom, those are all yucky!" To which the mother replies: "Yes, all those things seem bad all by themselves. But when they are put together in the right way, they make a wonderfully delicious cake!"
God works the same way. Many times we wonder why He would let us go through such bad and difficult times.But God knows that when He puts these things all in His order, they always work for good! We just have to trust Him and, eventually, they will all make something wonderful!
God is crazy about you. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen. He can live anywhere in the universe, and He chose your heart.
Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance and chant the holy names of God.
Srila Prabhupada instructs:
God knows everything, but we do not know what is God. That is our position.
Our position is not knowing. Isvara sarva-bhutanam hrdye-deshe arjuna tishtathi(Bhagavad gita.18.61). Isvara, God, Krishna, is situated in everyone's heart. Sarvasya caham hrdi sannivishtau: "I have entered into everyone's heart.? (Bhagavad gita. 15.15) The Supreme Lord refers not only to the hearts of human beings but to those of animals and everything else. The Supreme Lord is within the atom as Paramatma, and therefore He is also within the individual soul. Being within everything, He knows everything. Since He knows everything, we have to take lessons from Him.
God knows how many necessities you can create. And for all of them the supply is there. But you do not know, you take it as chance it has come. It is your foolishness that whatever necessities may be... God knows that so many necessities can be. It may be millions types. And for all of them there is immediately supply.
He knows everything and still He says "sarva dharman parityajya mam ekam saranam vraja . . . [Bhagavad gita. 18.66]'' God will save you from the destiny that you have created by misuse of your independence. He knows but still He is so kind. Surrender has nothing to do with your destiny, that will depend on you (the spirit-soul) because you have a little independence, a little freedom. So anyone who surrenders to Krishna , his destiny is changed by the omnipotency of God. He takes charge of the devotee and guides him how the devotee can go back to Home, Back-to-Godhead. This is the Mercy of God.

GLORIFICATION OF THE HOLYNAME:
In Sanskrit 'MAN' means The Mind and 'TRA' means to RELIEVE. Mantra means to relieve the mind from MUNDANE thoughts and activities.
The easiest way to control MIND is to chant MAHAMANTRA in all humility.
{BG.6.34 (PP. 343-44)}
Chanting the maha mantra frees one from the miseries of birth, death, old age

CHANTER CAN HEAR IT.CHANTING IS SIMPLE BUT SHOULD BE PERFORMED PROPERLY FOR BEST RESULTS.CHANTING MINIMUM 16 ROUNDS EVERYDAY WOULD KEEP YOUR
SOUL FREE FROM MATERIAL CONTAMINATION AND IT IS ESSENTIAL FOR CLEANSING MIND AND HEART SO THAT ONE CAN BECOME SOBER,UNDERSTAND HIS HIGHER DUTY AND UNDERSTAND THE SUPREME LORD.
