Although our universe and our  consciousness are very much connected , because the universe is one of the energies of Divinity and so are we , so naturally Divinity conscious of every aspect of His energies,  a kind of instant communication. The modern physicists understand something of this concept. However, we should know our free will is fully catered for .In other words, we are not downloads of Divinity. The  Vedas very much express the concept of free will and determinism , we are not dead stones . The real understanding given in the Vedas is that the living beings are simultaneously and inconceivably one and different from God . Srila Jiva Goswami has discussed this truth , and God can make the impossible,  possible  .The material world that we experience, as well as all the  living beings who we see  freely acting  within it  , is a testament to that .
God gives freedom to all beings , why would he not . He also has  subtle  built-in justice systems, a kind of Divine Ai and algorithmic system.
Today’s surveillance society and its crazed leaders take away  freedom , in the name  of giving it , actually they are binding us more and more , but we think we are experiencing  such freedoms. Krishna informs us of the real freedoms that we are inherently due .
Leaders are clueless and exploitative and are causing havoc in the world in innumerable and deliberately calculated ways .
People should wake up to the freedoms  . Divinity has granted them to us , they are ours , and we should take what Divinity gives us , He has our best interests at  heart .The real  intelligentsia know of these freedoms , only the intelligentsia will allow us  to fully express it and understand it .
The Vedas means full expression of freedom .

A Muni has the capability of original thinking ,  having specific insights into something of the philosophies , sciences, or theological considerations .  One could say realisations . Artists of all sorts  occasionally have these original insights,  and expression in their  arts or music, etc, are enjoyed, which help the “common man ” think deeply.

Thoughtfulness is the real  quality of human life.

Such Muni’s are very  rare , most people are followers or give independent interpretations of the original Muni , but they can often mislead or they can help making the original ideas clearer .

When gathering knowledge of any topics , one should understand the character of the person and their  authentication , how does he or she know , and how they know they know .

In Vedic culture, “Sabdha” is truth from a truthful person , those  who follow the great philosophical thinkers, the great sciences ,the great theologians, and who can in a balanced way with thoughtfulness, contemplations and importantly through Divinity who is within the heart , make sense of everything and apply knowledge practically and appropriately.

Every one should be careful and accept various “Siksa ” ( instructing persons) of different forms for sometimes different subjects,  importantly they should always prey to God , who in everyone’s heart , to make truth known . The truthful will always find truth . Truth is absolute but also relative,  the mature person has this widom of applications.

Every culture throughout the world has truth and wisdom within it by Divinities will , as does, of course, theological cultures . Scientific research reinforces truth ,  it is objectively seen . In all cases, objective science without fail does this . Subjective guessing or dishonest “science ” will mar truth , guessing generally takes one into ones own subjective realm , whereas the Super subjective realms display one truth that is applicable to everything,  and has connections to everything and everyone.

There is a balance to be struck between theological cultures, which invlude objective sciences, and the modern liberal democracies who advocate ” all freedom ” and teach subjective sciences based on scientific materialism.
Some societies try to maintain the balance, but overwhelmingly, the vast majority tip their balances in the wrong direction.
The Vedas, with its eighteen puranas and its social and spiritual orders that teach spiritual and social mobility, have the perfect balance.
Free will , determinism, law, and justice are all essential.
Thus, one who does wrong or suffers wrong is wrong.
Wrongs and rights are not voted in ..
After all .
Modern democracies can be described as fools voting in fools .
Fools can’t tell what is right and what is wrong , someone in the mode of goodness can , those in passion or ignorance, remain clueless and bewildered.

Knowing the truth , and principles of justice , originating from theological driven cultures and established by educated opinion .
Educated opinion originates from truth and reflects truth , the characteristics of a person who give educated opinions are well known are essential.

We should know lots of wrongs never make a right ..
Somewhere down the line, right must be imposed .
Thus, one who does wrong or suffers wrong is wrong …

As for example…

How to understand the truth of theological cultures through those who realise the texts and are able to express them because of their honest truthful non political nature, they see the true equality of all living beings.

Ultimately the way to resolve the Israel Palestinian wars , is for the true theological scholars of each faith to point out that the foolish hatred and killing of each other has nothing to do with their respective faiths , rather a great respect for all beings is contained within their scriptures.
Ignorance of scriptures and wrong interpretations by low class men should be avoided.
You will know someone by their fruits , fruits of killers is death , fruits of the wise who know scriptures is something entirely different.
The political classes won’t help , rather, they exploit and make matters worse. ..

The essence of ISKCON..

AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Arrival Address…
“At the present moment, the human society is giving stress on the mercantile class of men and worker class Actually, there is no intelligent class of men or administrative class of men. So our movement is creating some intelligent class of men. According to our Vedic knowledge, the first-class intelligent man is he who knows what is God. He’s first-class intelligent man.”…………

Unless this happens..
Fools will continue to vote in fools.
Society is becoming influenced by the lowest classes of men who are  infused with scientific materialism.  Darwinian hypothesis is the name of the game  with rampant materialism the results. The conclusions of this speculative science are not based on objective scientific methods. Everything concluded is based on subjectivity , best guessing. So the whole of the modern world is following the best guessing of proud atheistic and clueless persons. Sophisticated animals ask them what consciousness is..that is the most important question,  and they can not give an answer.

Interfaith.

Although the immature followers of different faiths have problems with each other ,  the most spiritually advanced of them don’t . They rightly have much respect for each other and can easily share in their experiences of Divinity .
So , it’s important for faiths to be primarily judged on the most advanced of each one . The lesser advanced who see so many differences in religious theological texts in time by becoming spiritual maturity will also be able to share faith with no insecurities and with realized knowledge.

The differences of a person in knowledge and a person who is not ; is that the person in knowledge has acquired Jnana , buddhi yoga , the yoga of intelligence.
This knowledge is brought about in various ways and generally through many lives .
It is recommended that a person who is inhabited by a ghost , needs to engage himself in purificatory processes of various actions , and after acting correctly like an ordinary man should do , he will regain knowledge of who he is , ie . He is a man, not a ghost .
By repeatedly telling the man he is not a ghost won’t do ,the ghost will overpower him . He must engage in purificatory actions to revive his true position.
Karma yoga, as in Niskarma karma yoga, leads to knowledge of God and knowledge of ones true self as an associate of God . The process of jnana alone is not suitable for 99.9 % of people but  by Niskarma karma yoga, one automatically aquires knowledge by working correctly and realises  the source of  all energies within and outside the body . Also, how best they can be  employed for the benefit of an individual and everyone else . An offering of energy  back to the energetic source.  By Niskarma karm,  one soon realises the futility of temporary action in matter , and a realisation comes about of dualism and consciousness and  its origins .Jnana or buddhi yoga is the result of pure actions. Automatically reviving pure knowledge of a person who is artificially trying to enjoy matter.  The inner consciousness is not made of matter , so matter will never satisfy consciousness.  The ghost like illusion of being something one is not is cleared up by Niskarma karma yoga leading to pure Jnana .  Then, pure Bhakti, the yoga of pure devotional service can be understood, which reveals one’s spiritual form in relation to God

The foolish global economy..

The bread you consume daily should be obviously made locally with wheat purchases from local farmers .The healthy local economy, and environmentally friendly of course .
But someone in Brighton for example is buying his bread that has been baked in Northern England , and transported down the motorway with wheat imported from Canada . The Vedic thinkers understand the goodness of local economies not only from an environmental and health consideration but all round focus on simple living and high thinking .
The Darwinians goals and those of those following scientific materialism are absurd in everyway , and any calculations based on absurdities leads to further absurdities.
Thus fools voting in fools leads to mayhem , take a look at the world as it currently stands.

Before the appearance of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu further extensive knowledge that was already given in the Bhagavatam  of Radha Krishna and the residents of  Vrndavana was  accessed through the teachings of Visnu Swami and further details from Vallabha acarya , those from the four Kumara sampradaya and Rudra sampradaya.

However, the extent and depths of Srimati Radharani love as well that of her assistants, the Manjaris, became revealed by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu, and this knowledge , by His order to Nityananda prabhu , was distributed widely to one and all . Another feature of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s teachings was to make clear what the truth of Varna Ashram is , and its deliberate progressive paths towards ,niskarma karma,  jnana yoga and buddhi yoga  aiming towards all the levels of Bhakti yoga which  culminate in pure spontaneous love that follows  the residents of Vrndavana . Those  who give their whole attention to Krishna in five types of relationships.

This trancendental theological position has been explained by Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami in his series of Caitanya Caratamrita, which can be accessed.

Pleasure seeking

The Vedic followers are not doom watchers , they don’t curse those who seek pleasure.

Indeed, the very nature of the living being is pleasure seeking , and that is said in the Vedas itself.

The Vedic aphorism.

Anandamayo bhyasat.

Pleasure seeking and a  joyful life is the  constitution of the living being.

The Vedic followers are  simply seeking a place where this instinctive  nature of the beings can be exhibited without the scientifically observed obstacles of birth , death , old age, and disease.

It is further noted by the Vedic following that although the body undergoes difficulties and has the above restrictions imposed upon it ,  the consciousness is only  the witness to it .

So intelligence should calculate  why am I suffering birth , death, old age, and disease  and all the accompanying miseries akin to it ?

The Vedas itself explains scientifically what the material energies constitution is and the laws of nature that operate , as well , why they are set in place . Essentially, the Vedas explains why those  living beings find themselves in the predicament they do .

To live in an environment where the consciousness and the energy that surround it are of the same nature is required,  Lord Krishna and Srimati Radharani, and their associates do not possess “karmic ” material bodies .

When one chants Hare Krishna,  this means that we want to bring Radha Krishna together and help and participate in Their ecstatic pastimes, assisting them in every way,  by doing so we automatically become satisfied , as for example the leaves of the tree are  satisfied when the root of the tree is watered.

The books of the Param Para teachers tells  all , Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada is most expert at teaching Vedic wisdom to Western audiences.

There is a very good reason why when describing aquiring knowledge, Lord Krishna puts humility as the first step to knowledge..
Try speaking sense to someone who puts up pride shutters within their consciousness..
It becomes so obvious that they hang on so tightly to preconceptions , and their minds go into overdrive as defence mechanisms kick in and kick all good sense out..

The BBC were at it again last night they had their scientific presenter dive deep into the oceans to find the source of our brains , they said it came from a volcanic vent deep within the oceans , thus speculations are openly presented as fact based sciences by mainstream media.

The BBC editor and the presenter should have left their brains in a glass jar at the bottom of the sea for all the good they are .Truthfulness and honesty are essential in objective sciences.

Subjective opinion must be clearly made to look life relatively uniformed opinion.

Take care of your own cultural traditions

Sep 29th, 2025

Every one of the citizens of countries worldwide should realise and learn of their own cultural traditions and historic values , practically all of them have some connections to Divinity in one way or another . It is the arrangement of Divinity that knowledge is always present and available through the wise . Progressive paths have been given .for thousands upon thousands of years .One of the youngest countries , USA , seeks to spread its influences , but in setting up the USA the forefathers sought to exploit and destroy the ancient culture of the natives , those persons who came to America , soon forgot or never practiced humanitarian values it seems .Although the forefathers constitution includes the words , self-evident truth of the equality  of all men , one can speak big words with an empty heart, it seems .
The ancient Greeks, the Vedic culture, the ancient Chinese cultures, and many others should not be forgotten . The world should not become a global world led by those who haven’t got much in the way of historic values, rampant materialism, and distorted theological thinking is not anything wonderful to spread worldwide.
Rather, individual nations should look to their own traditions, live simply and peacefully, producing their own needs , with only essentials imported .The cultivation of fine consciousness with humility , family values, and equal vision are the teachings of the now forgotten great civilizations .
