  7. gratitude is such an essential part of our life but still web often tend to forget it so often

  8. most of the times we tend to become so ungrateful for the many obvious things which consist of the details of our life. this thought is an eye opener no doubts

  9. How can one be grateful so much? Only when one develops deep spiritual realizations like that of Radhanath Swami, one can act like that. However, if one is fortunate enough to develop faith in his words, he can still act on this level by the mercy of saints like Radhanath Swami

    1. well said.. i have heard that gratitude is like the fuel in vehicle for spiritual path and we have to always keep that tank full so as to go ahead. we have to be grateful for everything we have in our lives.

  10. pretty cool and to be think of topic!

  11. Very nice quote…!! We should be grateful to whatever we are getting from nature,

    1. I read that Nature serves under the direction of the Almighty. These insight are quite profound

  12. being grateful is such an important and simple details of our life which we so often tend to forget

  13. very thought provoking. Thank you Radhanath Swami for making me introspective.

  14. gratitude consists of the basic foundation of all relationships as well daily dealings

  16. There is so much we have got to be grateful always….and here Maharaj is explaining one of the thing of that…even the breathing….thank yo Maharaj…

  17. It’s easy to complain or to find faults in anything but it’s a great virtue to be grateful in any situation. Radhanath swami very rightly said that being grateful is state of awakened awareness.

  18. Thank you for making us understand that Gratitude is one of the most esstential qualities.

  19. This is one of the most important quality in our lives, that His Holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaj always stresses in his speech. It is only a grateful heart who can access the mercy of the Lord. If we are not grateful we will be great fools

  20. This is one of the most important quality in our lives, that His Holiness Radhanath Swami Maharaj always stresses in his speech. It is only a grateful heart who can access the mercy of the Lord. If we are not grateful we will be great fools

  21. Thank you Maharaj for such a deep thought.May we try to be always grateful to the Krishna for that breathing air He is giving us and reciprocate with Him by offering one or the other service always.

  23. Gratitude is the only act through which we can attempt to repay the mercy and compassion granted by our Elders, guides, teachers

  24. Very true! we do not realize that we have to be grateful for every breath that we take, or for the air, water, trees, nature, etc that is available to us. We take everything for granted. We should cultivate the habit of being grateful for everything that we have.

  26. We need to make our hearts pure by rendering devotiona services to Lord and His servants in humble way so that we can reach to the state of “Being grateful”. Thanks Radhanath Swami Maharaj

  28. we have to be very alert at every step we take to be grateful for everything in life

  30. Superb Quote – We must be grateful for all the basic things provided by God without which we cannot live – water, air, sunlight, vegetables, fruits, etc

  32. Thank you maharaj. I breath but do not notice such things as it is common daily activities now. But your this statement has made me realize that we must be grateful for this.

  34. So true -Gratitude is a state of awakened awareness. Just because one is not aware of the different gifts one receives from Lord and other living beings one lack in gratitude. Which makes one take things for granted.

  38. what an amazing quote ..if we are grateful to each and everything provided by Lord then only we can get real happiness in surrendering to the lord ,thank HH Radhaanth swami for sharing

  39. Wonderful quote from HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj. He has very nicely depicted the importance of gratitude.

  40. Without developing gratefulness, we always have a feeling of scarcity and therefore we cannot feel happiness

  41. HH Radhanath Swami is right. We take many things for granted. We don’t value what we have been given. We either keep hankering for things we do not have or lament for things we have lost. No wonder this world is full of unhappy & dissatisfied people.

  42. Unfortunately, often we are not enough grateful for the blessings of life that we have received from the God almighty. HH Radhanath Swami’s this quote is very important as is like a reminder for everyone to appreciate the so many gifts that are available for us to utilize to attain the ultimate goal of life. Thank you for sharing this wisdom.
