Bhagawat Geeta. Bhagawat Puran also states that Once the mind of a person is full of surrender to the lotus feet of Lord then that person shall never encounter death or even in one's dreams, because doing such Devotional service to Lord is the right atonement for all sins."

"Merely renouncing all activities yet not engaging in the devotional service of the Lord cannot make one happy. But a thoughtful human being engaged in devotional service can achieve the God without delay." Bhagawat Geeta. Bhagawat Puran also states that Once the mind of a person is full of surrender to the lotus feet of Lord then that person shall never encounter death or even in one's dreams, because doing such Devotional service to Lord is the right atonement for all sins." Once There lived a Sculptor. He was very much arrogant & proud of his achievements. Astrologer told him that he would die within few years. He was very upset and wanted to outsmart God's decision to take away his life. So instead of spending the rest of his precious time in the service of God, he decided to make 10 statues of himself perfectly resembling him in every way. On the day he was destined to die, he stood among those statues. Yamaraj, Lord of death came to take him and was very confused to see the eleven statues. He found it hard to differentiate. Then he meditated on Lord Vishnu and a bright idea came to his mind. Yamarâja said loudly to himself: "One of these statues is defective. Not all of them are equally perfect & same." The arrogant sculptor who was pretending to be a statue jumped out and shouted: "Who is a better sculptor than me to say that one of my statues is defective? All of them are perfect replicas of myself." Yamarâja confusion was cleared instantly and he took the sculptor away saying "Nobody can outsmart God. If only you had surrendered to God and spent your remaining life in the service of Him, then end of your life in this body would have been more peaceful and smooth and you would have been experiencing eternal bliss. Arrogance and selfishness destroys one. When I was confused, did you see what I did? I meditated on Lord Vishnu and He persuaded me to say that "one of the statues is defective". Now I have to take you. Please remember Lord in pain and pleasure alike. He is the only one who can change or not change things." May Lord bless us with an attitude of total surrender! ~ Jai Shri ShivaVishnu ~ Hari Om Tat Sat Namah Shivaya!!
