Janmashtmi

-today the two festive moods  overkapped in my mind. Independence day  that has patriotic  hue .the other krishnajanmashtmi  that evokes  janmashtmi cheerful attachment  we as a society grow up with.
...its not just a festival celebrating the birth of lord krishna by one mother and raised by another woman.
...bhagwat geeta was a book given me when i was very small by my father .written by  dr s radha krishnan
..eighteen chapters all dictated as instructions to arjuna in the field of mahabharta war between  kaurav and oandavas introduces every new reader with a perspective different from the worldly practices .
..what i liked about this day was the eating and feasting  for pleasure. Usually all indian festivals are observed with fasting whole day. But this one is similar to christmas .the birth of jesus is celebrated i like it so muchafter reading Christmas carol written by Charles dickens a beautiful short story read as my text lesson.
..charm and magic of reading and everything celebrated  in life is related only to goodness. Good virtues .good values
...so values we admire in krishna  differ from the political agendas and promises made by dishonest powerful  men and women  that today i stayed trying to figure out what is the best time to celebrate the good is when one feels positive
