#RadhaRani says: How are we separated, When I am in you and you are in me? How are we disconnected When we find each others reflection in the mirror of our soul? Even endless love must seek to repeat the joy of new beginnings. #Krishna says: I can live without water And even without air. But without you, #Radha, Every minute i die. A hundred million of deaths. #Mira #MurlikiSaasMeinHaiRadhaKaPyar #love #eternallove #SriKrishna ❤️😍❤️ #RadhaKrishna ✨राधारॉनी✨कण✨ by ig_of_desifijianprincess http://ift.tt/1P8icAt.

NPR published a great story and photographs from the Hindu celebration of Holi. Widows are often exiled when their husbands die and are often banished from this spiritual celebration. These woman decide to participate in this tradition anyway despite being shunned for many years. This story is truly inspiring and beautiful.

A Hindu saint who was visiting river Ganges to take bath found a group of family members on the banks, shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his disciples smiled and asked. 'Why do people shout in anger shout at each other?' Disciples thought for a while, one of them said, ‘Because we lose our calm, we shout.’ 'But, why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You can as well tell him what you have to say in a soft manner.' asked the saint Disciples gave some other answers but none satisfied the other disciples. Finally the saint explained, . 'When two people are angry at each other, their hearts distance a lot. To cover that distance they must shout to be able to hear each other. The angrier they are, the stronger they will have to shout to hear each other to cover that great distance. What happens when two people fall in love? They don’t shout at each other but talk softly, Because their hearts are very close. The distance between them is either nonexistent or very small…’ The saint continued, ‘When they love each other even more, what happens? They do not speak, only whisper and they get even closer to each other in their love. Finally they even need not whisper, they only look at each other and that’s all. That is how close two people are when they love each other.’ He looked at his disciples and said. 'So when you argue do not let your hearts get distant, Do not say words that distance each other more, Or else there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return.
