Giving , receiving, the influences, and the influential.

The mysterious conditions of action in inaction ,and  inaction in action are discussed by Lord Krishna in His Bhagavad Gita.

The more influential a person is , and those influences are fluctuating according to many conditions and trends of the day , in a highly moral setting an immoral person is ignored and likewise in a highly immoral settings a moral person is ignored.  With the current state of the world, immoral and highly materialistic persons have control over all kinds of influential tools, which are stamping their mark deep into the impressions of everyone’s psychological states . We can also say scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis has greatly helped with the concept of one life one death no God,  do as you will .However,  the Vedas brings us the reality of the responsive universe , and bear in mind some physicists wont disagree , especially those who study quantum mechanics.  What you might do and might say and that affects others in various ways is your responsibility , the Vedas says , and the effects that are felt by others remain with you . Ultimately ,in many unforseen ways, the universal order is at work. There are many witnesses the Vedas say unbeknown to everyone , the Demigods , the Upadevas ,  who have ways and means of making observations are described in the Vedas . The observer effects in the realms of quantum mechanics can be considered , any interaction with matter has effects well beyond an immediate cause and effect . Ultimately, Divinity Himself is situated within the hearts and minds of all , He is the supreme witness and the best of listeners and the best advisors . Trancendental life entails  becoming free from any of the good and bad actions that bind one to the material energies . Although good is good and better than bad , it’s still not a trancendental action . In trancendental activities good can be bad and bad can be good . That needs to be understood  with trancendental maturity . Krishna explains all in His Bhagavad Gita.

Acting exclusively for the pleasure of the Lord and His associates is something written of in the Vedas and learned from a pure devotee who is completely free from the universal cyclic cycles.

Bhagavad Gita gives the summary of this science of freedom from action .
Krishna says .
” One who sees action in inaction and inaction in action is wise among beings.”

Be sure …

Be sure you are being influenced by the right influencer .

So many seek to influence us for their own selfish interests , and many claim to know the truth of any given topic .
How do they know they know .

What is their epistemology, or what are their motives  importantly what is their state of heart .

Bhagavad Gita indicates the symptoms of true expression and the qualities of those that express it .

Living objectively is important, but also accessibility to a super subjective realm and an origin of absolute truth is an essential , the Vedas indicates. .

Love and lust

The most essential feeling a child must have is love ..

Its the inherant nature of consciousness to love and be loved .

The origins of these feelings stem from Divinity…
The further one strays from Divinity , love turns to lust .
The lust to be an independent enjoyer, it’s an artificial and impossible position.
Divinity Himself is the supreme autocrat and the most giving of all  persons , when it comes to love, no one can give more or receive more . Although some say in trancendental truths that the Supreme Goddess of fortune is the supreme giver and recipient of love , and that Krishna Himself is always searching searching searching after Radharani.  There is an eternal competition of love taking place , and Hare Krishna means “an exchange of love “

That’s the Vedic way….to learn to love and accept love ..
