Reputation is a word made of glass. It may destroy an individual completely, if one doesn’t care enough. And that’s the reason we think a lot before doing or saying anything in public or on social media. Because our acts reveals our character and our character builds our reputation.

Through the social media we are connected with each other like never before. But we all know how much we hide ourselves from the virtual and the real world. We wear so many masks to cover up the real thoughts and real character to the world. And all these just because we care a lot about the reputation built up by the time. So, we take up and precede all our acts very cautiously either by hiding or by pretending. Such act of constant pretending always keeps destroying our own being. We can’t be free and over certain period we feel worthless.

But if we look back in the History we find some people who were never worried about their reputation and they’ve lived their life with complete freedom. All of them were performing one common act; with complete affection towards it and that too without getting destroyed their reputation. And that act is Devotion – Lovingly worshiping the God. This act has never destroyed anyone’s reputation from ages. And to support this statement I would like to share one Devotional Song written by the Poet Premaldaas. This devotional song narrated with the real life examples highly promotes the loving worship towards the Lord Krishna.

હરિને ભજતાં હજુ કોઈની લાજ જતી નથી જાણી રે,
જેની સુરતા શામળિયાની સાથ, વદે વેદ વાણી રે...

Not yet heard of anyone’s reputation being destroyed by lovingly worshiping The Hari (Lord Krishna); those, whose complete dedication is towards Shamaliya (Lord Krishna), says the words of the Vedas…

વ્હાલે ઉગાર્યો પ્રહલાદ હિરણ્યકશ્યપ માર્યો રે,
વિભીષણને આપ્યું રાજ, રાવણ સંહાર્યો રે...

That Dear (Lord Krishna) had saved The Prahlaad and killed The Hiranyakashyap; given the kingdom to The Vibhishan and destroyed The Ravan…

વ્હાલે નરસિંહ મહેતાને હાર, હાથોહાથ આપ્યો રે,
ધ્રુવને આપ્યું અવિચળ રાજ, પોતાનો કરી સ્થાપ્યો રે...

That Dear (Lord Krishna) had accompanied Narsinh Mehta personally; given everlasting status to The Dhruv and established him as his (Lord Krishna’s) dignitary …

વ્હાલે મીરાં તે બાઈના ઝેર હળાહળ પીધા રે,
પંચાળીનાં પૂર્યા ચીર, પાંડવ કામ કીધા રે...

That Dear (Lord Krishna) had drunk the deadliest poison (plotted for) The Meera; covered Paanchali (Draupadi) with the pieces of clothes and accomplished all the missions of The Pandavas…

આવો હરિ ભજવાનો લાહવો ભજન કોઈ કરશે રે,
કર જોડી કહે પ્રેમળદાસ ભક્તોના દુઃખ હરશે રે...

The ones, whose enjoyment is within worshiping The Hari (Lord Krishna) with the Devotional songs; says Premaldaas (The Poet) with folded hands, (Lord Krishna) will take away the pain of (his) devotees ….

હરિને ભજતાં હજુ કોઈની લાજ જતી નથી જાણી રે... 

Not yet heard of anyone’s reputation being destroyed by lovingly worshiping The Hari (Lord Krishna) …

Here in this devotional song the Poet Premaldaas urges all of us by folding his hands to worship Lord Krishna. We can worship that divine with any name of our own choice like - Krishna, Brahman, Buddha, Jesus, Mohammad, Godliness, Existence, Love etc. but we shouldn’t hesitate in connecting with that one supreme power who is the creator of life on the earth. 

It is said in Bhagwad Geeta - "સર્વ વેદો દ્વારા જાણવા યોગ્ય હું જ છું." 
Meaning: I (Lord Krishna) am the one who is acquainted through all (the knowledge) of all Vedas.

Know the Self, understand that eternal power; try to be more and more connected with Oneness. I know, in this modern era we are so much busy in working for our living and that too by keeping our Reputation safe and secure. But with that we must travel towards our own inner world, and worshiping that Divine happily by keeping our heart filled with Love and affection is definitely going to help the internal journey. And history has made us assured that act of Devotion is not going to affect our Reputation... ad

Your Friend Always
