The Bhajans of the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas are not just songs but rather deep meditations, realisations, and prayers, and it behoves us all to regularly enter into the spirit of these hymns on a regular daily basis as well as discuss and meditate on their meanings , as much as we do with our acaryas writings. Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada was an excellent musician and composer of melodies and regularly sang the songs of our acaryas so beautifully and the sounds of the Sabdha Brahman emanating from his lotus mouth are still being heard all over the world on a daily basis .
Srila Prabhupada was so fond of singing trancendental bhajans, and they immediately took everyone in his presence to the spiritual planes of Vraj. .Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Narottam das Thakur are but some of the writers of these wondrous trancendental masterpieces .
Just as Srila Jiva Goswami gives as the meaning of the Maha mantra, along with the Goswami’s of Vrndavana, who were taught by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu , Krishna accepts names given to Him by His devotees, when he accepts such names He is fully present.
When our acaryas write their songs of devotion, Krishna is fully present. If we follow their prayers and meditations remembering their pure devotion, we may receive their mercy and understand something of the depths of their bhajans.
“ ‘The holy name of Kṛṣṇa is transcendentally blissful. It bestows all spiritual benedictions, for it is Kṛṣṇa Himself, the reservoir of all pleasure. Kṛṣṇa’s name is complete, and it is the form of all transcendental mellows. It is not a material name under any condition, and it is no less powerful than Kṛṣṇa Himself. Since Kṛṣṇa’s name is not contaminated by the material qualities, there is no question of its being involved with māyā. Kṛṣṇa’s name is always liberated and spiritual; it is never conditioned by the laws of material nature. This is because the name of Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa Himself are identical.’
Pure theological cultures incorporate a broad range of lifestyles , not everyone can be what someone else can , or as spiritually minded , it takes many lives to culture pure spiritual consciousness. But culture is culture, but at the same time, some progressive leeway must be granted , but also an insistence that out and out atheistic libertines don’t have the power and influence to spoil family values and the discipline that leads to cultured consciousness. Extreme libertine lifestyles can lead to a degradation of society, making the unsophisticated and uncultured into what could be described as atheistic sophisticated animals whose only goal in life is sensual pleasures … Its the responsibility of leaders to seek support and help of those that realise and teach scientific dualism , the cultural consciousness that Plato taught .Science and religious teachings are one and the same in reality . Thus, Albert Einstein said that religion without science is blind and science without religion is lame. We should not for instance, as in the West , teach Darwinian hypothesis and scientific materialism as unquestioned fact based sciences…this is the cause of ignorance because it ignores the self-evident truth of consciousness. Exploitative unthinking entrepreneurs who have been prepared to infiltrate other countries , having not been educated correctly in the sciences of consciousness ,they invade and set up wars that kill others setting one group of persons against another group , because of corruption and promises of money and power . The libertine conglomerates want the invaded country thinking like they think , unsophisticated, and uncultured ways . Such greed of these liberal entrepreneurs leads to access to other countries’ wealth , and it ultimately becomes controlled and handed to the globalists’ control as well as the country the wealth originate from .
Andy Burnham recently, it appears , is to be made PM of UK , and he has a new team that could very well challenge the woke libertines who are actually a movement of global conglomerates . They try to spin a message that they are for the people and freedoms, in reality they seek to control housing , commodities of all kinds , transport systems, and many essential services including water services and the health care systems. It’s these libertine global conglomerates that cause high house prices, high rents, and every other cost that are essential for families , keeping things at high costs . These libertine conglomerates boost their profits by monopolies , and they are helped along , by paying for political parties , so long as they are free to successfully lobby for policies from government that help them increase their control of their monopolies and continued increase in the profits they want . Media empires have been built by them, and 90% of the population are easily manipulated. The centre of working of these political philosophies is at the heart of the EU and other parts of the USA . Everyone has become influenced by libertine woke global conglomerates new age culture , who profit from encouraging libertine lifestyles and everyone is working hard to do it , slaves to a system that they think give them freedoms. Society and its citizens are paying excessively for essential services that are no longer in the hands of central government but in the hands of private companies , who also promote and influence others to have a particular world veiw. Currently, there are no social housing for working people , but there are high rents paid to private landlords, who gain from the renters and from a government who pay them housing benefit directly from the government.
The Vedic way is the balanced middle way , with the intelligentsia at the forefront advising the political classes . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
The mysterious conditions of wakefulness, dreaming, and deep sleep can not be understood and only speculated upon by those following scientific materialism or Darwinian hypothesis . They have, in reality, nothing at all to offer on the subject .….guessing is all they can do evolutionary firing of brain neurons having an evolutionary rest period . Unless dualism is understood, and all of its implications, nothing can be really understood within universal affairs .Dualism is the scientific key that opens the objectively witnessed world and puts everything in context. Ignoring consciousness is no solution to scientific affairs , but we can safely say that is, unfortunately, the modern approach to science , and it’s a pitiful state of affairs in real terms. However, the Vedas sciences very easily tackle every scientific issue , and logical and rational answers are given . Directly or indirectly, the Vedas addresses all issues. Srila Jiva Goswami, in his Tattva Sandarbha, examines all three conditions of consciousness . wakefulness, dreaming, and deep sleep , and explains them . Wakefulness, in reality, is the artificial state of the consciousness enclosed in a surreal material body dealing with Karmic synchronicities . Dreaming is the artificial state of the mental and subtle surreal body , this is where karmas are played out on a different level , desires not destined within the physical body are fulfilled and bad karma is sometimes played out in nightmares . There are other mysterious circumstances that can come about within dreams , messages being exchanged on different levels , and even spiritual messages. Deep sleep is where both states of consciousness are absent . A void world of deep sleep , almost a relief from the troubles of matter . However, on awakening, one thinks I experienced a very good deep sleep and feels happy. There is a certain peaceful experience in deep sleep that people hanker for and enjoy. Srila Jiva Goswami compares this state as a reflection of merging in the impersonal light of Divinity, where relief from material existence is experienced. Oneness without the botheration of stressful relationships and stressful material conditions. In deep sleep, the living being is merely consciousness , having been temporarily removed from the gross and subtle body, which brings considerable difficulty or temporary happiness. Thus, God, in His mercy, gives us a break from karmic synchronicities, good and bad , who does not hanker for long restful sleep ? .Dualism brings knowledge of mind , matter, and consciousness. Consciousness has an unlimited potential, and it should be realised .Those who ignore its potential get caught up in the gross , mental, or intellectual planes , as the animals do . Your dog is hankering for its dinner or wants to walk , the weaver bird intelligently builds its nest . The human is not meant to be a sophisticated animal, but something greater . They peer into the night sky and begin to wonder about life . The Darwinian is a closed consciousness, as is the scientific materialism following.
Take your consciousness on a progressive journey .
Progressing our consciousness from its covered states , its shrunken states , its budding states , or its blooming states , and tranforming it into a fully blossoming state is a curious method of describing consciousness progression . Such a description is given in the Caitanya Caratamrita within the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu to Sanatana Gosvami . This tells us the story of the evolution of the consciousness state . Many people are familiar with the word evolution, which has been somewhat hijacked by the Darwinians , but the word evolution can be used in a number of ways . The Vedas describes the living beings wondering within the material universal energies . They are inhabiting all kinds of bodies , and having forgotten the last episode , take very seriously their new day time dream . The species of life have something in common , they are looking for pleasure and avoid suffering. From plants , to insects , to animals , to uncultured humans , to cultured humans , to humans connected to and in tune with universal affairs , to humans very much in tune with Divinity , to humans who have brought their consciousness to its originally intended state , its pure loving state and direct attraction for Krishna in Krishna , its originator , they are all pleasure seeking .
Unlike the Darwinians, who consider consciousness as simply chance events of neurons firing in a brain that originated from a primordial slime , the Vedas take a clear and objective look at consciousness . Using various sciences , with analytical construct , the Vedas clearly demonstrate that consciousness is made up of different substances from the gross and subtle influences of matter that are governed by physical laws . The Vedas shows a path of freedom from the shackles of material existence . This is what we refer to as scientific dualism , or the sciences of self realisation .
Bohr , Schrödinger , Feynman , Teller, and Einstein , as physicists , looked at consciouseness within our responsive universe, and unlike the gross biologists veiwed life’s fundermentals in entirely different ways .
The Vedic terms for states of consciousness are ….ana maya, pranna maya , jnana maya , vijnana maya, and ananda maya . The progressive path and the changes to the qualities of the bodies are given in the Taittiriya Upanishad 2.1-5 .
In English terms , these are compared to a flower throughout its life , first covered , then shrunken , then budding , then blossoming , then fully blooming .
The animals and other various creatures are categorised in terms of consciousness , they are considered to have covered consciousness , anu maya . The unthinking human who is living like a sophisticated animal without any philosophical position is in shrunken consciousness , The human who considers life and its purpose is considered to be in budding consciousness , the human who has realised some degree of the glory of consciousness in connections to Divinity is in blossoming consciousness , and finally, the human who has established a relationship in love with God is in fully blossoming consciousness.
So literally, the science of consciousness , consciousness awareness, and self realisation and its perfection has been summarised . Each of these categories is given a thorough run-through in the Vedas, and progressive and systematic programmes are recommended to realise these truths . This enables and empowers everyone to understand their consciousness state . Step by step guidance is given . One should seek an expert who is in Ananda maya consciousness to guide one in such consciousness progressions . Also, any person who is a little further progressed than ourselves will be of help by their association.
Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami explains the full spectrum of life’s journeys within his books .
Some scientific thinkers utalising quantum mechanics suggest we live simultaneously in different universes ..
However..
These versions are merely our subtle mind and what it may or may not enact . When it acts within the physical plane , the universe responds . Every action has an equal reaction, good , bad, or mediocre.. Thus ,free will and determinism within the responsive universe, the endless journey of trapped karmic synchronicities is described. The way out is described by Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami in all his writings. The full Vedic reality has been revealed
Is 1+1 always 2, of course, it is….. everyone will say , ….must be .
Although if we consider the theoretical physicists considerations as well as the Vedic multidimensional spiritual realms, we make look differently. Divinity , who is always accompanied by his associates and never alone , is inside and outside , near or far . Divinity Himself is both universally gigantic or atomic in size . We can consider the laws of physics , how and why they act the way they do , and where and who is experiencing them . The multipolar Vedic universe has time and space operating at multiple levels . In this world, a Mayfly lives for twenty-four hours and the Redwood tree thousands of years . Space time is relative to where and who is experiencing it . In the world of dualism , of mind matter and consciousness , one set of laws affects one part of the equation but not the whole combination or the whole. For instance, when you dream at night, which particular laws of nature are at work ?.Dreaming is so real and connected that a man can pass semen as he embraces a women in his dream , but sometimes he is flying or living in the past or even future . In an absolute realm , I+1=1 and 1 – 1 = 1 and 1+1 = 2 These calculations are based on the Vedic aphorisms .
Inconceivably and simultaneously oneness and difference of Divinity from his energies and his particle expansions , this is the trancendental and absolute mathematical doctrine of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
The hint is given that Divinity , who is the supreme energetic source of all energies , has multifarious variations of energies functioning in multiple ways . Space time and the rate of the effects of time on a particular set of atoms in one part of the universe , along with the radiation effects of the solar energies. The Vedas indicates that it is variable throughout the multidimensional planes of existence with the billions of planets . Thus, the life span of the upadevas ,( junior demigods ) , or the demigods themselves , or Lord Bramha, the head of the total universe, greatly differs .
On an absolute plane , Divinity Himself is simultaneously one with everything , so 1+1 =1 , thus , He is inside , outside , everywhere but nowhere , near but far , this indicates His oneness of His existence. Quantum physics speaks of instant communication , so this very well illustrates the point , what one part of the universe is doing trillions of miles away the localised part knows immediately , Visnu is the universal existence in His universal form , He knows when a blade of grass is moving in one part of the universe although he is simultaneously trillions of miles away .
Thus, the original source of consciousness lives in multiples of dimensions both spiritually and material , He is not subjected to any material calculations. ….and ultimately, neither are his particles of consciousness, namely us , although in conditioned consciousness , we appear totally subjected to material laws . Thus, although we are one with God, we also experience differently .We can experience extreme differences in matter ,,Visnu is never affected by matter or subject to its laws .
Thus , 1+1=2
Divinity is also 1- 1 = 1 .
He remains as one when the material universes are brought to a close , everything entering back inside of Him , in His Maha Visnu form , all matter , along with all His parts and parcels of consciousness.
Einstein called aspects of quantum physics as “spooky action at a distance,” which referred to one part of the universe knowing immediately what another part is doing, even though trillions of miles apart ..
The mechanistic Darwinian and those who consider scientific materialism as an absolute truth have to take themselves out of their own limitations that they impose upon themselves. To be able to consider reality in real terms, the plane of consciousness needs understanding. It’s a fact , for instance, that only a tiny percentage of the light spectrum is observed by humans , so what to speak of other limitations imposed by a conditioned mind and limited intellect.
The limited can not calculate the unlimited except if the unlimited allows it to . If the unlimited could not allow the limited to know the unlimited, the unlimited would not be unlimited….
By the unlimited mercy of the unlimited the limited can know something of the unlimited.
In Bhagavad Gita, Krishna, after explaining plenty of details of the complete makeup of mankind , consciousness, and material nature within a multidimensional universe, He had then declared ,” This is just but a spark of My splendour “
The Darwinian mantra for liberation could be .
Math is everything . Everything is math …. If they chant this 1008 times per day . Their acceptance of subjective speculations may begin to subside, and objective sciences may become apparent to them if they keep chanting . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
That’ll be the Darwinians…subjective guessing is never really scientific…..its guessing. Here, this might help
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not “guesses” but reliable accounts of the real world.
Micro macro murmured endlessly by PhD. evolutionary theorists do nothing to mutationally spark the micro to macro .
The Miller Urey experience 60 odd years ago , has made absolutely no progress unlike the technological world around us ..molecules don’t move towards like , and mutations degrade information. The bluebottle fly experience show mutations lead to crippling or death , the 15-year microbial experiment to witness evolutionary development in the microbial world , representing hundred of thousands within human lives , found no changes .
Mutational mathematics show it doesn’t work in evolutionary terms within the genome. Can you open a bike lock by chance , with say, 40 rollers , how many different combinations could be had ? A billion monkeys typing on a billion typewriters for one billion years , can they produce a perfectly punctuated Shakespeare script ? Including the punctuated and spaces between the words .The full script is needed just for the body plan of the ant ..what to speak of the human brain.
It could be said that every particle of anti matter is rightly dedicated, toward Divinity, by the spiritual pure loving consciousness of the residents of the spiritual realms, who are forever expanding the spiritual bliss of Radha Krishna in a trancendental sacrifice of love . In this world the atoms elements and compounds as well as the consciousness is misused , the energies are self sacrificed in selfishness, either on oneself, ones family , ones community, ones nation , but in complete forgetfulness of the origins of the substances that we seek to enjoy , this consciousness keeps us in matter . The changes of consciousness brings us to a land of anti matter , the spiritual varigatedness of the lands of Divinity, where everything is made of consciousness , and soul on soul relationships occur , where each sense can carry out the actions of the other senses. The Bramha samita describes this spiritual realm , Lord Bramha had an opportunity to catch a glimpse of such a land before creating this material universe.
The world is driven and controlled by global conglomerates and their monopolies along with their global financial institutions wherein insider trading is rife , along with micro second stock , commodity, and currency trading. Localised economies within nation states , the Vedic way , bring relativity smaller incomes , and fools are regulated. Encroachment is the business of the unintelligent. Businessmen have inferia intelligence, but unfortunately, in the democratic world, they pay for and influence the way of the world where fools vote in fools that allow global encroachments .It’s a world where a fool makes so much money, and he gets so much power , and they can do harmful and stupid things with it . There are no intelligentsia in government or administration positions or in advisory capacities , a fools money and power in todays world cancels the intelligentsia, they remain unheard , only the fools are heard and broadcast.
The Srimad Bhagavatam points out clearly the quality and duty of every section of society, and importantly says , if one person takes the position of another artificially and without qualifications the world will head for continuous disasters in many ways , that is what we are currently witnessing. The intelligentsia must be looked for, fools voting in fools needs to change to the wise voting in the wise http://www.thevedicspectator.com
In a world of education and supposed logic and rational thinking , it’s important for the theological minded to counteract speculations and guessings in the sciences that are being presented as fact based sciences ..Although trancendental emotions and spiritual feelings are very powerful and can over come any intellectual bias when it comes to understanding Divinity , still Divinity Himself explains His , what the Vedas refer to as , Vibutis , or Krishna’s energies of function within the material world, and that make up both the microbial world and the multidimensional universes. Krishna from within the Vedas also explains social sciences and His favoured political systems. So along with the bliss of spiritual love and pure consciousness, which is actually the most important, come the truely rational and logical and scientific explanations to our world and circumstance.
Lord Krishna in His Bhagavad Gita spends His time speaking to Arjuna , everything in summary about the make up of mind , matter , consciousness, time and the difference between living in a spiritual or a material realm have been spoken of . How the two reflect for various reasons is clear , free will and determinism are played out along with justice and a judiciary. Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada explains all in his books, which are available throughout the world in every language.
In His Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna gives His trancendental analysis of the workings of karma, jnana , astanga, and Bhakti yoga . When Bhakti is added, everything becomes blissful and knowledgeable . In other words, everything can be understood in the right light, and the trancendental connections between all yoga systems become apparent. Krishna says one who knows the path jnana and karma leads to the same result is knowledgeable . This is because if one acts dutifully in karmic duties as given in theological cultures, connections with Divinity naturally awaken . Its Divinity Himself, who brings forth within the Vedas the process for gainfully living that includes systematic knowledge and detachment. Karma, when dutifully carried out, leads inevitably to degrees of karma yoga as knowledge of God and sacrifice will be naturally increased by good pious activities. Karma yoga in its beginnings leads to increased levels of Bhakti in the association and guidance of saints and godly persons , and such association naturally leads to increased levels of jnana , I.e. knowing the purposes of the Vedas and knowing how to please Divinity as such, knowing who Krishna is and what Krishna’s purposes are .
Those who , because of previous lives or tendencies for jnana or knowledge, can in the association of saints become more aware of the real purposes of knowledge which are that all kinds of thinking processes and intellectualism should lead to actions, or karma yoga , and in the case of high levels of jnana ,its called niskama karma yoga .Karma yoga with greater knowledge and greater awareness of Divinity. In both cases, karma or jnana yoga leads to pure Bhakti, without Bhakti karma and jnana yoga will not progress far or fast , but rather in slow increments .The addition of Bhakti leads to increased hearing and chanting about Krishna and increased levels of pure meditations centred exclusively on Radha Krishna and all the activities of Their friends and family members , this can be termed as pure Astanga yoga . The windows to the spiritual world are there within the litratures of the Goswami’s who Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu personally taught . Everything is made clear within the litratures of the Goswami’s and by the param para acaryas who follow the Goswami’s. Sadhu sanga and sastra sanga, along with service with devotion, is the clear path laid out , the chanting of the names of God are the means to understand everything .
