Kanhaji, thank You for restoring my confidence



Kanhaji, You restored my confidence to the highest level and now its so high that I'm thinking that I can do anything I want to do and be anything I want to be. Thank You for doing that for me Kanhaji because a year ago, maybe even a few months ago, I know I would not have been thinking the same way. It's all Your doing and I have to thank You for that.
Kanhaji, please continue to help me to have a high confidence level and please show me the way to be able to balance the high confidence with a good approach to treating others in a respectful manner.
Kanhaji, please help everyone reading this blog be able to believe in themselves and achieve a high level of confidence and success in their lives with You by their sides.
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji gives me challenges and moments of bliss


Sometimes in life things just work out perfectly. Most times they dont. When they dont we like to stop and analyze the situations agonizing for hours, days, weeks about what happened, why it happened, why not etc. This kind of behaviour is less than ideal. I know it because I myself practice it sometimes.
If we truly accept Kanhaji then we will truly accept everything that He gives us in life - all the challenges, all the disappointements, all the tears as well as all the happiness, all the joy, all the love that we experience every day in the tiniest ways.
Kanhaji is the one that we should look to at all times in our lives and I always feel His divine presence with me - all the time, every day.
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji, thank You for giving me strength


The one thing I needed the most today was strength. Kanhaji gave it to me and I was able to pull through and feel better about myself and project an aura of confidence and happiness. I was also able to resist temptation to do something really silly.
Kanhaji always is with me and He always takes care of my needs and today more than ever, I saw that happen.
Kanhaji, I have to thank You again for helping me, taking care of me, loving me.
I feel really proud of myself because it was so hard to do this - to be strong - many times I just wanted to cry, almost said the wrong thing, almost did the wrong thing. But in the end, I used the support system Kanhaji gave me - my friends, Himself, and it helped so much. My day was a good one. Tiring, but good.
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji, my faith in You is the most important thing to me


I truly believe that You guide me to do the right thing Kanhaji. I truly believe that You will always show me the right way regardless of the situation. I guess that now I cant see why I did the right thing by saying that stuff but maybe in a few days or months or years I will know.
Kanhaji, I need Your guidance and I just need to know that You are with me in happy times and difficult times. I want to be able to feel Your presence always.
Thank You for loving me and being with me and caring about me. Thank You for allowing me to be exposed to Your divine presence and strength.
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji, please help me be strong


Kanha, today is one of those days where I feel like nothing is going my way. I have wasted a lot of time when I should be working hard. Kanha, I need Your help and I need to know that You are with me always. I know that already but I just wanted to say it again. Kanha, I need Your help to be strong. Please help me and please help everyone reading this blog to be strong and have faith in You and Your power. Kanha, I love You and I am putting all of my trust and faith in You. I want to be cleansed of any bad feelings that I have towards persons who may have hurt me knowingly or unknowingly. Kanha, please help me to forgive them. I know that truly it isnt their fault. Kanha, please help me to trust that You will make my life right in the end and that things will be okay. I dont want to have to compare my life to others and be jealous or anything. Kanha, please help me to do what is right and to find my way in the world.
I know that You will guide me and help me through.
One of the most important things I have felt about finding faith in Kanhaji is that when I feel weak I can just tell Him that I want Him to help me, to take care of me, to help me to do the right things instead of the wrong. Kanhaji always listens and He always takes charge of the situation.
Kanhaji, I trust You completely. Please take charge of me and everything in my life.
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji gives me what I need


Sometimes I feel that things in my life are not happening on time - not the way I want them to or when I want them to. And then something changes in the future and I realize that the timing was exactly right. Kanhaji always does that - He gives us exactly what we need when we need it and even if we can't always see it easily - He is always giving us these things at exactly the right time for us.
I look around at my friends and I see some people unhappy with their lives - others are happy with their lives. And I realize that those who are happy have accepted the way that things are and have tried to make the best of it - they have allowed themselves to be happy in spite of disappointments and trials and pain and fears.
This is because they trust in Kanhaji and I have to say that I hope that one day I will be able to fully trust everything that He does for me because sometimes I find myself still wondering about alternate endings to certain points in my life.
Kanhaji, thank You for always sending me the right things at the right times.
I felt that the picture with Kanhaji offering us laddoos was the most appropriate because it shows that He is giving us His blessings all the time - even if we dont recognize it!
Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji ki Janmashtami



Our birthdays are all supremely important to us all - they mark the day we came into this world and they mark another year that we have lived on this earth. They help us to reflect and look at what we have accomplished in the last year in our lives - family wise, career wise, educationally, socially, physically, mentally, and most importantly...spiritually.
I know that when it was my birthday a few days ago I took the time to think about all that Kanhaji has done for me over the last year - changes in my education, my career, my family - new members welcomed and some gone forever, changes in my friendships - good and bad, changes in my other social relationships - again some good and some bad, changes in my physical appearance, changes in the way that I approach life. I now rely more on Kanhaji and have come to accept His decisions in my life.
I have began to believe in the phrase 'everything happens for a reason'. Its true, every single person sent into our lives by Kanhaji has been sent there for a particular reason.
I have realized that recently.
I have also been able to understand that as I get older I should be happy to have the opportunity to mature and live my life continuously - unlike so many who die before they have the chance to achieve certain things in their lives. I thanked Kanhaji for giving me this very life that I live and for being such a strong presence in my life now.
Today we celebrated Krishna Janmashtami which marks the anniversary of Kanhaji's earthly birth to Devki and Vasudev and the night he travelled to Yashoda to become her son.
The story of Kanhaji's birth is so miraculous that I always marvel at the sequence of events. I always imagine what happened first and how the parents reacted - both sets. How the guards would have felt, how Kans would have felt, how Kanhaji would have felt to have to come to earth as a helpless baby to face all that we have to face here.
I think that Kanhaji has given us a pretty good life but I also acknowledge that it is up to us to make our lives good, but, we can only do this with His help.
Kanhaji, thank You for coming and taking care of the evil that we faced at that time. Please help each of us to find Your strength inside us so that we can deal with the personal evils that we face everyday as we continue to live our lives to the fullest and to be the best people we can be with You by our side.
Jai Shri Krishna!
