Prabhupada

The materialist have their thesis, a world veiw . It is helped along by modern-day scientific communities ,  scientific materialism, and Darwinian hypothesis . It is  taught and  presented to the gullible public as fact based sciences from the time of childhood to ones grave , “cheating science,” says AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. “It’s a society of the cheaters and the cheated “.

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada arrived in 1965 on the shores of the USA with the Vedic antithesis . Utalising the Devi Varna Ashram systems Prabhupada,  under the direction of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur ,  sought to bring a synthesis between the spiritual and material frontiers . In doing so, the goal is to harmonize. All the various interests and various cultures of the world can be enhanced bringing  even more beauty within  societies when the purpose of life is understood and it is centred on Krishna consciousness either in peripheral ways or with deeper  understanding  of the cor values of spirituality.

East meets West Prabhupada would say , and  the Vedas has the systematic processes and  purificatory methods to balance peoples lives between the spiritual and material .  Primarily in this age, it is inacted  by the introduction of the chanting the Holy names of God in everyone’s lives . With this process , some sanity can be developed , and the process of Sankya yoga and  buddhi yoga  will begin . The benefits can arise in anyones heart, as trancendental intelligence begins to properly discriminate between matter and spirit, allowing a following of the objective sciences that clearly point to intelligent design,  that empowers us to see God in everyone and everything .

It’s not so easy to present an  antithesis to a current dogmatic thesis  consisting of  shadows and deceit brought about by the leading  materialists’ global world .  Many adaptations in the Vedic process are required , and adjustments to previously established ways will need to be found without losing the Vedic essence. The Vedic intelligentsia are meant for that purpose.

Srila Prabhupada was one such expert at the art of presenting the Vedic antithesis to the materialist’s thesis who present a  flawed and speculative world veiw . Prabhupada sought a synthesis and indeed adapted Vedic cultures within the modern age. He also  expected his disciples to follow suit with a high degree of intelligence and Vedic learning . That comes from inspiration given directly by Krishna , He gives intelligence to those who wish to serve Him  sincerely under the direction and guidance of the previous acaryas , all of whom have written extensively

Even when  Lord Krishna was present 5000 years ago, Krishna adapted to circumstances, as did Mahāprabhu . When Ashvathama killed the children of Draupadi , devotees  including Arjuna and Yudhisthira wanted Ashvathama  killed , and even Krishna thought it best . However, He adjusted to time and circumstances because of Draupadi’s desire and worked a compromise.  The  listening to the good sentiments of a high-class lady Krishna thought important .

“An example of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s adaptation of Vedic culture for the Kali Yuga is his emphasis on the chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra as the primary form of worship, replacing the complex, external Vedic rituals like large-scale sacrifices. He taught that the sankirtan movement, or congregational chanting, was accessible to all people, regardless of their caste, creed, or social standing, making spiritual practice attainable for everyone in this age.”

Adaptions of Sastric injunctions require the best of the intelligentsia . Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur,  Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada showed that example.

Srila Prabhupada because of his deep loving services to his Guru Maharaja was able to instill that same  commitment into the hearts of many intelligent young men and women , they had many skills in their own right taught to them by Western educational systems and those skills were turned against the very material society  that taught them so an antithesis could be intelligently presented ,  quickly Krishna consciousness spread  to many many people , like father like son .
