Kanha accepts

Acceptance is something that we all strive for. Even when we dare to be different we would like our peers to accept our differences and perhaps even admire us for them. Acceptance is what Kanha gives. He accepts all of us into His arms and He makes us better people. Think of His divine words in the Srimad Bhagavat Gita: "If one offers Me with love and devotion a leaf, a flower, fruit or water, I will accept it." Srimad Bhagavat Gita Chapter 9, Shloka 26 Kanha accepts us and He wants us to accept each other - think about how peaceful the world would be if everyone accepted the differences in each other's personalities. If we accepted the quirks and traditions people come with into our lives then we would be happier because a large part of our human experience is that we strive for perfection or something better than we had before. We strive for goodness and happiness and we wish to share that with those around us. However, we feel that to share such happiness we need to make others persons think the way we do or act or dress or talk the way that we do. In truth, this is not so. Kanha made us all differently for a reason - He loves us and He wants us to all learn about different ways to expand our intellect and to be able to deal with difficult persons, those who are pushovers, to deal with loved ones and friends. Thank You Kanha for accepting us and please help us to learn to accept others. Jai Shri Krishna!
