Story:

An old Farmer lived on a farm in the mountains with his young grandson.

Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading

his Bhagavath Geetha. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to

imitate him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the Bhagavath Geetha

just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I

forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Bhagavath Geetha

do?"


The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and

replied,

"Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of

water."


The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got

back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a

little faster next time," and sent him back to the river with the basket

to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty

before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it

was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket

instead.

The old man said, "I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of

water. You're just not trying hard enough," and he went out the door to

watch the boy try again.

At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his

grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would

leak out before he got back to the house.

The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he

reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. Out of breath, he

said,

"See Grandpa, it's useless!"

"So you think it is useless?" The old man said, "Look at the basket."

The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the

basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal

basket and was now clean, inside and out.

"Son, that's what happens when you read the Bhagavath Geetha. You might

not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be

changed, inside and out. That is the work of Krishna in our lives."

After you cleaned, now you can able to understand the meaning and know your loopholes(bad habits - impurity) inside us and we try to fill(close) that holes after that we become fulfilled for lifetime.

HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA, KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE,
HARE RAM HARE RAM, RAM RAM HARE HARE.
