The Vedic way..

By tapasya and austerity ones intelligence and thoughtfulness increase , a thoughtful person can begin to see the obvious intelligently arranged world they live in and understands their own limitations , in doing so they surrender themselves intelligently to the process given to them by previous great thinkers and philosophers of devotion who have left the path clearly marked out .
By following that path, they feel within himself great gains that can be corroborated by other saints, other Gurus, and by bone fide theological texts .
The epistemological Vedic system, along with the etymology of the saints who understand scriptures and their meaning and produce the Smriti .sastra will be revealed .

Most importantly in current time the process of chanting the Holy names of the Lord , the Maha Mantra , as given by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and the acaryas is the means by which the widom of the Guru Sadhu and Sastra are properly revealed, Krishna reveals them , He is fully present along with the spiritual kingdom in His name .

The process of successful chanting is also given by Mahaprabhu, who has left us eight all-important verses to comprehend and act out in this regard.

The Vedic way is for all persons to connect with Divinity through the peripheral or cor teachings that are set out in the Artha sastra,  the Dharma sastra , the Jnana sastra and the Bhakti Sastra , everyone fits and the systematic proggressions are quite natural.  It is Krishna’s wish that everyone takes advantage of good teachers in all the various departments of wisdom that offer social and spiritual mobility.

More on this later .
