<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Parasuram das: “Prayojana is Sanskrit and it translates as ‘goal’.<\/p>\n
It’s part of the process of ‘finding your soul'”<\/p>\n
When you check the meaning of ‘goal’ in the dictionary, the first explanation that comes up is the concept of scoring a goal.<\/p>\n
Noun;<\/p>\n
(in soccer, rugby, hockey, and some other games) a pair of posts linked by a crossbar and typically with a net between, forming a space into or over which the ball has to be sent in order to score.<\/p>\n
Then there are other goals like becoming the president of America or becoming a millionaire etc.<\/p>\n
Somehow they forgot to include Krishna as being the goal.<\/p>\n
“I am the GOAL, the sustainer, the master, the witness, the abode, the refuge and the most dear friend. I am the creation and the annihilation, the basis of everything, the resting place and the eternal seed” BG 9.18<\/p>\n
Now here is a question for all the ISKCON Pandits, no football Pandits please.<\/p>\n
Back in June, Arsenal football club donated a sizeable sum of money to our Prasad distribution project. I declared boldly that they would now win the FA Cup, sure enough, a few days ago they won the FA Cup at Wembley stadium,<\/p>\n
The question is who scored the goal Pierre Aubameyang or Lord Krishna?<\/p>\n
And if Tottenham Hotspur (Spurs) give a bigger donation, will they definitely win next year’s cup?<\/p>\n
Para, as director of Food For All Was approached by Arsenal – “the kicker of balls”<\/p>\n
“For your good works, we’ll give a donation.” Para said, “Thanks” with a look of elation.<\/p>\n
Para thought later. His brain he racked. Had Arsenal performed a ‘devotional act’? So he wrote to his boss, Pragosha Prabhu And explained his conundrum. Would he have a clue?<\/p>\n
Praghosa, a life-long supporter of Spurs Was gutted that Arsenal had thought of it first! Arsenal, days later, proudly held up A new piece of silver – A. K. A. F. A. cup<\/p>\n
The lesson here – for all you football team owners: Is donate to Krishna for a guaranteed bonus With one little change – a ‘devotional Trojan’ Stop shouting “GOAL” when you score – shout “PRAYOJANA!”<\/p>\n
