Appreciate Your Fortune
'We come and go, come and go, but the fortunate souls get good association. Good association comes through faith: the kind of benefit you get from the Lord depends on how much faith you have for your Guru.'

“Problems come, this life is always like this. What can you do? It is the will of Krishna,
but all problems will be removed, we must not stop.”
