We shall attempt to compose an article on these points tomorrow . In the Bhagavad Gita Krishna tells that the non devotees , or the immature devotees , do not understand His trancendental nature , thus they become confused , and misunderstand , or take His trancendental form and activities as Maya like theirs , driven by materialism. In that state, fools try to imitate Krishna’s pastimes. This is due to a lack of knowledge that brings material sentiments into play . It is essential to hear from and serve a pure devotee of Krishna , in doing so misconceptions are cleared , firm knowledge is established , and one can begin his or her further approaches towards Divinity in a humbled and trained spirit of devotion .
Krishna says Bhagavad Gita 7.24
avyaktaṁ vyaktim āpannaṁ
manyante mām abuddhayaḥ
paraṁ bhāvam ajānanto
mamāvyayam anuttamam
Translation
Unintelligent men, who do not know Me perfectly, think that I, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, was impersonal before and have now assumed this personality. Due to their small knowledge, they do not know My higher nature, which is imperishable and supreme.
It is quite a mystery to the world how the Vedas contain so much philosophy, psychology, religions of different kinds , and detailed sciences, yet it also contains what appear to be human like pastimes within the highest of spiritual realms , and personal activities in the upper lower and middle planetary systems . The question should be what type of bodies or atmospheres are these activities carried out ? and why assume they can be likened to our existence.
Completed tomorrow.
