Real Key to Success 

The Epic Story of Mahishasura shows that focused, hard work is the real key to success. Keep your eyes on the goal, and just keep taking the next step towards completing it. One important key to success is self-confidence. The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we fear.

Mahishasura kept his eyes on the goal. He was determined to defeat Lord Indra. He just kept taking the next step towards completing it. He had one important key to success is self-confidence with excellent preparation. His key to success was to focus his conscious mind on things desired not things feared.

Turvasa, Bhrgu, Yaksus, Matsya, Druhyu, Paktha, Bhalana, Alina, Sigru, and Suda joined Mahishasura to wage a war against heaven. Mahishasura had appointed a senior Warfare Committee along with them. He had asked his very powerful Commander-in-Chief Chiksusa to give his war strategy that would enable them to siege the whole universe and bring it under his supremacy.

Chiksusa emotionally addressed, “Oh mighty Mahishasura s! Conquest of Paradise is our priority. This needed now against that habitual womanizer Indra, the Lord of Paradise. This creation must witness the victory of chastity as a positive virtue that enables us to love, and protects love from being tainted by the selfish tendency to <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif";letter-spacing: -.05pt">use the other person for our own pleasure. Let us battle for purity. Lord <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"; letter-spacing:.1pt">of Paradise has no sexual values and needs dethrone for his immoral, <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"; letter-spacing:-.15pt">unethical, and senseless sexual greed. This calls for ruthless punishment. <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"; letter-spacing:-.1pt">Let the victory in this Conquest of Paradise make all Mahishasura s very happy <span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"TimesNewRoman","serif"">and proud. We shall now work out on our military strategy with a set of ideas to implement and to pursue achieving rightly desired victory in this Conquest of Paradise. Let me briefly give an account of our Four Forces of war. This is a classical division of fourfold force of Chariots, Elephants, Horsemen, and Infantry Soldiers, collectively known as the Four Forces. Each one is lead by a Knight, under the command of administrative division of troops. Our Warfare formulated by the laws of war that are very chivalrous and humane, and prohibit the slaying of the unarmed, of women, of the old, and of the conquered. In a war, never ravage an enemy’s land with fire, nor cut down its trees.”
