SEVA
We are both brother and sister. We go to school to study. Our ages are 12 and 10 years. We love Shri Thakorji very much and we have kept him in a cupboard in our room. Since we go to morning school, we play with Shri Thakorji in the afternoon. Our parents say: You cannot play with Thakorji like this, you must do seva. Uncle, please tell us, how children like us can do Thakorji's seva?
Will you explain how to do seva, before leaving for school in the morning?

YOUR PROBLEM
We say that Shri Krishna is Paramatma, Jains consider Vardhman Mahavir as Paramatma, Christians say, their God Jesus Christ is Paramatma, Muslims say Khuda is God. Who is real among all these? If there is one God, then how come there are so many Gods Shri Krishna, Vardhaman Mahavir, Jesus Christ and Khuda? I believe in Shri Krishna, but how can I explain this to my friends?
Why can't we serve Shri Thakorji, garlic, oninon, carrots? Why can potatoes be offered to Shri Thakorji?
We do jap of 'Shri Krishna Sharnam Mama' mantra. Many people do jap of 'Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare'. Both have Krishna's name in it. Two great souls, Shri Mahaprabhuji and Shri Krishna Chaitanya have given both these mantras. Then why we give greater importance to 'Shri Krishna Sharnam Mama'? In our homes we do not do 'Hare Krishna' jap. Why?
