Kanhaji's most important lesson...Love

Love is the one lesson that I think that Kanhaji was sent to teach us above all others. He showed us how to love each other and how love makes us happy, happier than we ever imagined. He loved His parents - His birth and adopted parents, He loved His brother, His stepmother, His friends, the gopis and the gopas, and do you know that He loves us all? Right at this very minute that you are reading this post rest assured that Kanhaji loves you very much. So much that we will never be able to imagine it. We all think that when we fall in love that it is the most powerful feeling in the world but the love I feel for Kanhaji is so great that I know I cannot be who I am without Him. He helps me in so many different ways and to do so many different things that I thought were impossible but He merely paves the way and makes it all so easy for me. He truly does love me. Of this I am totally sure. His love has helped me deal with unhappiness, hate and negative feelings that I felt toward others. He takes care of me in such a loving manner that when I think about it all I can say is 'Jai Shri Krishna'. Focusing on Kanhaji truly helps me and I am writing all of this down and publishing it here on this blog so that others who read it can be encouraged to focus on Kanhaji and meditate on Him. Talk to Him, make Him your friend and you will feel safer. I have put several pictures of Kanhaji and Radhika Rani which portray their love for each other. Some of these moments are so precious that they make me sigh. Their story is slightly sad because they do not get to be together forever, but it just makes the moments that they did spend together quite precious indeed. There is one thing I want to say about people who feel offended that Kanhaji loved Radhaji and then married Rukminiji but the thing is, we should not take things only literally. The love that they shared was so deep and so pure that we will never understand it fully. I freely admit that of myself. I know that when we fall in love we all become slightly selfish and possessive but Radhaji's spirit was such that she never demanded anything of Kanhaji, she was content to love Him in her own way and to know that He loved her also. This is how we should view our relationship with Kanhaji - we cannot expect Him to love us alone. After all, He is God and so He will love us all. We should know that He loves us all with an intensity that we would not be able to find elsewhere and we should treasure it dearly and love Him back fully. Jai Shri Krishna!

my kanhaji

Always is there for me. He helps me.

Kanhaji makes us happy

Happiness is elusive. We become happy easily but just as easily we may become unhappy. Sometimes a feeling of unhappiness is because we feel that our lives are not working the way we would like. We feel envious of others and discontent with our own lives. In that case Kanhaji tries to help us. He always does. He sends someone to show us how good our lives really are. Or, on rare occasions, He will send a drastic change in our lives to ensure that we become happy doing what we are doing. He always takes care of us and showers His love on us so why should we think for a second that Kanhaji will leave us unhappy? He never will. He will always stand by us, loving us, helping us. Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanha's blessings

Blessings come in many different forms - friends who say encouraging things, strangers who smile on the street, relatives who say kind words. All of these are Kanhaji's blessings to us and we should never take His blessings lightly. We should embrace them and love him more for sending them to us. Sometimes the blessings He gives us relate to the way we interact with other people and behave selflessly. Today I realised that people can be truly selfless and emulating them and their actions should be something that we aspire to do. Kanhaji also teaches us that loving means giving. Loving may mean doing something that will make the other person happy and yourself sad but that is the way it is. We should learn that Kanhaji will always do what is best for us and that when we offer true love to others then we are doing the right thing and following in His footsteps to be what He wants us to be. Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanha sends us what we need

Kanha knows everything that happens in our lives and He knows what we need at every single point. And do you know that He is the one who sends us exactly what we need? He always does that. He sends us what we need and more. He takes care of us in such a loving manner that we should remember to thank Him every minute of the day, except we don't. But even that, He understands and does not blame us for. However, we should remember that whenever we feel that something is not going our way - He sent us what we need and He will give it to us always. He will send us love and affection but He will also send us stern talks and scoldings if required. In the end He will always listen to us and always guide us and always always love us. Jai Shri Krishna!

What do we offer to Kanhaji?

Offerings are a part of our religion. We provide offerings to Kanhaji to show our appreciation for His divine presence in our lives. We do this not really for Him though, we do this for ourselves, to appease our minds into thinking that we are contributing and giving back to Him. At least, that is the way that I see it. Kanhaji wants offerings that will help the world. He wants us to help others and take care of them. He wants us to give them love, compassion, care. He wants us to be happy and He wants us to make others happy with the happiness that we have been given by Him. Today we should think about what we really do offer to Kanhaji - is it enough? And if we don't think that it is enough, how can we offer more to Him, more meaningful offerings to Him will benefit not only ourselves, but others as well. Jai Shri Krishna!

Kanhaji gives

I have realised that Kanhaji gives us whatever we need. He gives us love, happiness, joy and peace. But He also gives us trials, suffering, worry and doubt to teach us lessons. He gives us exactly what we need at exactly the right time. He gives us so much and we don't even realise it. Jai Shri Krishna!
