This is why later when Narada comes to meet him then while approaching the sage he <strong>walks carefully so that he does not step on the ants coming his way.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, we see <strong>Duryodhana and Dhritarashtra got so many opportunities to become devotees of Krishna<\/strong>, but they never accepted Krishna as their well-wishing friend. In fact, when Krishna came as peace messenger to Hastinapur, then <strong>instead of listening to his good advice, arrogant Duryodhana tried to imprison Krishna.<\/strong> And the blind king looked the other way when his son was committing such horrendous sin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But <strong>who can capture Krishna<\/strong> who is the Lord of the entire creation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Although Duryodhana and Dhritarashtra\u2019s story is 5000 years old but still there are people who have the mentality exactly like them<\/strong>. I remember, during my college days, we had a cultural program and for that we had to go to a different place. But on that day, it was raining heavily, and it seemed that we won\u2019t be able to participate in the program. While addressing us on that day a senior member of the management <strong>said that today we have to defeat God and participate in the program.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Foolish &amp; Unfortunate do not accept Krishna<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>God is not like an ordinary envious person that he will take interest in disrupting some program in some corner of the universe. <strong>He has many better things to do.<\/strong> Summer, winter, rainy seasons keeps on coming and going and we have to live with it. <strong>But sometimes, some situations expose a person\u2019s heart.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sometimes materialistic people have intelligence and knowledge by which they are able to achieve something great. But <strong>instead of being grateful and thankful to the Lord for the gift of intelligence they develop ego which turns into arrogance. <\/strong>They do not realize that anything which they achieve here is temporary. And most importantly they do not know that <strong>their next destination will not be auspicious as they have been acting impiously in this life.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such people might be in high position today, materially learned, ultra rich, may possess beauty or other attractive attributes but <strong>if they do not accept Krishna then there are utterly foolish, misdirected, unfortunate and lowest of mankind.<\/strong> This is what Krishna says about them in Bhagavad Gita. Krishna further says that such people do not come to him but glide down to hell.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cThose miscreants who are grossly foolish, who are lowest among mankind, whose knowledge is stolen by illusion, and who partake of the atheistic nature of demons do not surrender unto Me.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/vedabase.io\/en\/library\/bg\/7\/15\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Bhagavad Gita 7.15<\/mark><\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So, let us check our life and see if we are happy to accept <a href=\"https:\/\/minivetsystem.com\/iskcon\/have-we-ever-tried-to-fulfil-the-desire-of-krishna-the-supreme-lord\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">Krishna<\/mark><\/a> as the Supreme Lord and love loving him and serving him.
