A spider spins a web all by itself , goes and sits in the middle of the web and keeps eating the insects that get attracted to it, and once it gets bored of sitting in the web, destroys it and all that remains is only the spider. After sometime, its time for it to create a new web.
Similarly Krishna creates this Universe including all the living things (web) all by himself and takes in all those bakthas who surrender to him like the spider eats the small insect sitting in its web. Once when the spider gets tired of eating these insects, it destroys the web, so once when Krishna thinks "enough - the game is over", he creates the pralayam which appears to us as destroying the universe and everything gets absorbed in him and all that remains is only Krishna. Again when he thinks, its time to spin another web, he starts creating the universe, planets and living beings etc and restarts the game.

Why Krishna devised the Laws of attraction?
Krishna says to Arjuna in BGita - Always think of Him, become His devotee, worship Him, and bow down before Him. These four practices attract Krishna.
He has designed all of nature’s laws to help us souls find our way back to our eternal home.
When we use the law of attraction for material purposes, it keeps us in the material realm of repeated birth and death. When we use the law to be absorbed in thoughts of Krishna, then surely we(our soul) will go to Him.

Soul Science
Soul - By now everyone of us know that body is different from soul. Every living being has a soul which is covered by flesh & blood - the body. So soul is different than body. Body dies and turns into ashes but soul never dies. It changes from one body to another after death, just like how a body chages from one cloth to another.
Swami Prabhupada (ISKCON founder) says: Soul is so powerful. soul's velocity is much much faster than light itseems. As we all know, mind can travel faster than light. It seems our soul is designed in such a way that, it is even faster than mind and it can reach or travel any light years and reach Krishna itseems. But then it is totally covered with matter. Although the soul is made purely of spirit but since it is completely covered with matter, it is not able to travel different lengths and heights itseems as long as it resides in once body.
So to make use of the total strenght and power of the soul, one should be devinely elevated to break the matter that is covering the soul and make the soul take its greatest velocity and reach the lotus feet of Perumal. For soul to get this powerful, we might have to go thru' lots and lots of Janmam. But the best route to attain salvation is to improve Bakthi. This is a very detailed topic. This is what BGita is all about. more to come on this topic soon.

Palli konda Perumal
Why Perumal alone has this sleeping posture? - from KrishnaPremi
This is to signify that Bagawan is sleeping during pralaya kaalam.
When bagawan decides, its time to cause pralayam, with fire everywhere and then he first fills earth with water, water absorbs in air, air escapes in space and space gets absorbed into perumal itseems. (Very similar to black-hole concept)
After perumal has initiated this pralayam, and absorbs everything onto him, he goes to yoganithrai itseems.
In srirangam alone, perumal lies in snake with no body surrounding him, which means Perumal has succesfully caused pralayam and everyone is absorbed in him itseems.
In other palli konda perumal kovils, we have Bramha coming from Perumal's naval, sridevi boodevi and other devargal.
This means, Perumal has woke up from his yoganithirai and started doing srishti at the end of the pralaya kalam itseems..

Sri Sri Krishna Premi Swamigal
Jai Sri Krishna!
I am a big time devotee of Lord Krishna, and I am fortunate to get a husband who is also a big devotee of Krishna. 9 years back, my husband was the one who introduced me to Sri Sri Krishna Premi (KP) Swamigal's BagavathGita upanyasams. At that time, i was too immatured to listen to upanyasams although I had great trust/belief and love for Krishna. But most recently another very good friend of mine, also introduced me to more of KP's upanyasams. Now I think i am a bit more matured and for me these days, if i dont listen to KP for a week, i will go mad.
For all those, who are not aware of KP, I am not marketing for KP here like other sadhus bcos he doesnt claim himself as a Sadhu, but he is a proper Grihasthan doing one of the most excellent job in this universe by raising our inner level thru' his upanyasams. I am really not eligible to talk about him, but for those who are intersted, here is his website:
http://www.srisrianna.org/srisri_first_html.html
His upanyasams have kindled a lot of interest in me to start reading many Aanmigam books. The main reason for why i started this blog is to share with you all - all the small anectodes that these gr8 saints say to make us understand the stark reality of why we are here in this earth, how we should be during our stay here and where we should aim to go at the end of life. Everything is copyright none my own thoughts, I just want to share to my kith and kin what i hear from these powerful beings who are sent down to earth by Krishna for a purpose.
Comments welcome!
