  • Climbing in our consciousness

    May 17th, 2026

    Title.
    Conditioned limits and going beyond.

    The Vedas defines different levels of consciousness.
    Shrunken, budding , blooming , blossoming, and fully blossoming.. Shrunken is like the animals and creatures, budding like the beginnings of human sensitive existence….at most Ai may express levels of jnana , blooming, blooming means questioning life and looking into meanings , so Ai could be useful to some .Not vijnana, blossoming consciousness of course , that is a realised knowledge deep spiritually felt insights , that’s because computers are not conscious , nor will they ever be . However, because most Ai operations are driven by materialism, the majority are no more than mana maya or budding consciousness. The mental platform wherein mental speculations are churned over , chewing the chewed one might say .
    Jnana means some progress on intellectual planes towards spiritual matters . Vijnana means firm realisions of such topics of trancendental affairs and ananda maya , fully blossoming , means a reestablishment of pure devotional service and direct connections to Sri Sri Radha Krishna and Their intimate devotees .
    So, ultimately, Ai has extreme limitations.
    Especially when , as is the case , only the downloads of the limited and conditioned are promoted. Many mistaken ideas , illusions , cheating, and imperfections in calculations are being presented as fact.
    If the fully realised souls were to operate Ai systems, that would be highly beneficial to humanity, and that may come to pass .

  • Trancendance,  music and messaging

    May 17th, 2026

    Music and messaging
    Radio 3 UK are featuring the importance of music and hymn to the Lutheran church.So it is , the Sankirtana movements are primarily based on music of many kinds including the Bhajans of the acaryas.
    Some historical insights into the reformation ” Martin Luther’s theology of viva voce evangelii—the living voice of the gospel—was spread rapidly by translating complex biblical doctrines into the native German tongue, bypassing the need for Latin-reading clergy. While the printed Lutheran Bible laid the foundation, music and congregational hymns acted as the primary vehicle for mass evangelism.The Role of Music and HymnsHymns served as the emotional and educational engine of the Reformation for several reasons:Teaching the Masses: Since a large portion of the population was illiterate, music allowed the laity to learn complex theological concepts, such as the Ten Commandments, just by singing.The Priesthood of All Believers: Luther believed that worship should be active and participatory, putting hymns directly into the mouths of the congregation rather than relying entirely on a choir or priests.Relatability: Luther penned contrafacta—applying sacred, evangelical lyrics to popular, catchy secular folk tunes. He famously argued, “Why should the Devil have all the good tunes?”A Mighty Fortress: His most famous composition, “Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott” (A Mighty Fortress Is Our God), became the “battle hymn of the Reformation”, providing comfort and theological defiance against the Catholic Church and political authorities.The Role of the Lutheran BibleIf music was the engine, the Bible was the fuel. It provided the structural and scriptural bedrock for the Reformation:The German Translation: While hiding in Wartburg Castle following the Edict of Worms, Luther translated the New Testament in 1522 and the entire Bible in 1534.The Printing Press: Capitalizing on the
    “The Printing Press: Capitalizing on the Gutenberg printing revolution, these translated scriptures were rapidly mass-produced.Direct Access: It empowered common people to read the Word of God for themselves, establishing the ultimate authority of Scripture (sola scriptura) over church hierarchy. ]Historically, church leaders, such as the 17th-century Jesuit Adam Contzen, famously acknowledged the power of this strategy by remarking that Luther had converted more souls with his hymns than with all of his books and sermons. You can read more about how this musical culture blossomed on the Lutheran Reformation History site”

    The new kirtan yoga festivals and the youth Harinama festivals are very important methods of increasing Krishna consciousness individually and collectively , and the learning and singing of the bhajans and prayers and aspirations of our acaryas are worshipable in themselves, we as devotees , pray following the praying of our acaryas and not presuming that their deep prayers are applicable directly to ourselves.

  • Barking Tommies and encroaching killers

    May 16th, 2026

    With marches going on in London, one wonders which side , if any , ISKCON is on .Certainly, when Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami came to the USA, he applauded the right to expression of responsible free speech and liked free movement as it  recognised a self-evident truth,  the spiritual platform of the soul .

    Śrīla Prabhupāda:” The whole modern civilization is operating on the misunderstanding that the body is the self (dehātma-buddhi). This is the mentality of the cats and dogs. Suppose I try to enter England, and you stop me at the border: “I am an Englishman,” you say, “but you are Indian. Why have you come here?” And the dog barks, “Rau, rau, why are you coming?” So what is the difference in mentality? The dog is thinking he’s a dog and I’m a stranger, and you are thinking you are an Englishman and I am an Indian. There’s no difference in mentality. So if you keep people in the darkness of a dog’s mentality and declare that you are advancing in civilization, you are most misguided.”

    End of quote .

    The rights of the Palestinians is in focus and their recent suffering in Gazza ,as well as historic encroachments on their lands , unnecessary killings are condemned by all civilised men , and wholesale killing is even more so.

    “So on the whole, the Manu-saṁhitā, life for life is sanctioned. And that is practically observed all over the world. But similarly, there are other laws, that you cannot kill even an ant. Then you are responsible. You have no right to kill. And in the Bible also, we see, Lord Jesus Christ says, “Thou shall not kill.”So killing is not allowed in any religious principle. Anyone who is killing, he’s not considered in the human society. You cannot kill. The… Lord Buddha’s also principle is ahiṁsā paramo dharmaḥ, no killing. Lord Jesus Christ also says, “Thou shall not kill.” In our Bhagavad-gītā it is also said, amānitvam adambhitvam ahiṁsā [Bg. 13.8]. Ahiṁsā means not to become violent, not to kill.”

    AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada. 

    Elevated consciousness solves many of the problems we face ,  a society advised by the true  intelligentsia is the Vedic way . Low class men who are like sophisticated animals have pushed the intelligentsia away , silenced them, and have usurped power .Take a look at societies the world over and the ruthless killers and the encroachment of globalists’ empires , who, along with governments, have sponsored instabilities and terror .

  • The highest of considerations should not be neglected

    May 16th, 2026

    How to understand ultimate Dharma

    Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur indicates in his purport of Bhagavad Gita 1.11 ,
    that Arjuna thought Dharma  sastra ( duties ) were more important than Artha sastra ( political considerations  ). However, Krishna indicated  above both are the Jnana Sastra , * (development of philosophical and spiritual widom ), and that was  more important .  Krishna indicated to Arjuna that with Jnana Sastra knowledge , he would be well able to discriminate and apply  successful applications  of  knowledge based on dualism . These are the ultimate considerations that he should hold in his heart as the topmost importance, beyond the material body , mind, and any  material considerations.  . The problems we all face are forgetting our ultimate relationship with God . We are  putting other plans within the  mortal world above the plan and wishes of our most intimate  well wisher , Lord  Krishna.
    The Artha sastra indicates how political structure should operate , but such structures also have elements of  Dharma, which means they must be   properly carried out duties within morality and ethical standards. If those who practice politics discard Dharma, they should be rejected as hopeless leaders who will only bring great harm . Ultimately,  only  jnana sastra can help one understand Dharma and Artha sastra . Jnana, also when linked with pure Bhakti, can take one to the  trancendental knowledge of Krishna… and ultimately to spontaneously loving Divinity .

    Certainly, in today’s society, we see a vast array of conflicting views on what should be correctly viewed as justified and fair political structures and practices . Also, there are debates on how one should  regard commitments to duties and responsibilities in family and social relationships . Liberalisation can change everything for the worse , especially if scientific materialism is at its heart .We can also say with the introduction of subjective sciences wherein speculations are accepted as fact based science and best guessing is  held in high asteem , and with logic with rationale appearing to take second place , things are  going a little off track to say the least when it come to bone fide methods of  aquiring knowledge .

    The original Vedas, are eternal , in other words pure knowledge is always present , it stems from Divinity Himself and its inspirational and transferred into  the hearts of the seekers of truth. Truth is always present,  but can we see it ? Divinity has the  responsibility to present truth, and the real intelligensia understands its various forms.  The honest intelligentsia brings the proper balance . An  integration and applications of Artha sastra,  Dharma sastra, and  jnana sastra within Bhakti ( devotional) sastra in all its progressive steps are well known to the Vedic Brahminical intelligentsia.  Without the guidance and knowledge of the essential fundermentals  required for human existence, which will bring purposeful and progressive lives based on dualism, we are simply decending into sophisticated animals who fight over territories and live for one life of sense gratification , like a street dog . The  philosophical outlooks and the arts, which can open hearts , and truely objective sciences are neglected or ignored .

  • Lady lessons

    May 16th, 2026

    Understand ladies …and their inherant qualities that we learn from .

    The members of the Vedic societies should be very clear that when the Vedas or Bhagavatam refer to women as “less intelligent,” this term should not be misunderstood . As Srila BR Sridhar Swami says, women set the greatest example by their soft and submissive nature . Bold , puffed up and arrogantely situated menfolk are not so familiar with the spiritual consciousness connections of humility and surrender that are required for spiritual life . Ladies often by nature display this quality,  and Srimati Radharani, along with Her friends and associates, demonstrate how this consciousness towards the supreme Autocrat Krishna is  astounding even to God , and naturally He feels obliged to reciprocate with His heartfelt love . Ladies being simple hearted does not mean less intelligent,  its simply means them quite rightly being family oriented , kind and sensitive to family cultures such as child care and setting up a stable home life  and supporting the husband in many many ways . It has nothing to do with the workings of an intellect, which vary according to karma in both men and women. Naturally, ladies, in many cases, can become overly attached to a temporary family life and can find it more difficult to practice some elements of spiritual life , particularly intelligently situating themselves in detached consciousness. However, Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu Sankirtana movement brings ladies very quickly to the highest levels of consciousness as much as a man in the highest principles of buddhi yoga and can teach and preach just like a man .

    “Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur has said

    • Material Intelligence: In his writings, such as Shri Chaitanya-shikshamrita, Bhaktivinoda Thakur often refers to the “delicate intelligence” (komala buddhi) and “delicate body” of women in a material context.
    • Contextual Differences: This perspective is similar to that of A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, who taught that while women and men are equal on the spiritual platform, women are considered “less intelligent” in the context of being more emotionally driven and having a stronger attachment to the physical body and household affairs.
    • There are many examples within the Vedas where theological texts are misunderstood. The smarta Brahminical classes very often read things wrong and present wrong conclusions. Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu in teaching the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana has represented the truth of the scriptures with the correct applications such as the truth of social and spiritual mobility when consciousness changes . Spiritual consciousness changes many things both Prarabdha and aprarabdha karma changes , we are not dead stones. Similarly many Smarta Brahminical classes read the scriptures wrong when it comes to ladies , who are just as intelligent as men in many cases , we have many PhD ladies or heads of global businesses. So we should bear in mind that becoming detached from the material world is sometimes easier for menfolk because the ladies’ natural soft heart can keep them in family affairs and homemaking . Although Srimati Radharani and Her friends and associates dropped everything and ran to Krishna. They are the greatest example and inspiration even to the most intelligent of spiritual men

  • What do we see, and how do others see ? where can  we go , where can others go .

    May 15th, 2026

    Sadaputa prabhu from ISKCON, otherwise known as Dr Richard Thompson PhD , offers the Vedic explanations to the UFO phenomena.
    In a multidimensional universe , the Vedas explains , with lower middle and upper  planetary systems , the lower , the Vedas says , is equipped with high levels of advanced knowledge of sciences beyond our current understanding . It’s hardly surprising that occasionally, the entrances to the different dimensions may be breached for a number of reasons . Although generally, the dimensions don’t interact by universal laws . Sadaputa prabhu explains all on YouTube , along with many Vedic explanations to scientific matters .
    This post is relevant as the USA government is releasing many many files to the public , online about UFO official sightings recorded by USA government…Take a look and also hear from Sadaputa prabhu , the author of a Vedic cosmology book , and mechanistic and non mechanistic sciences , as well as others books on scientific matters . We can not presume everyone sees in the same way , for instance, what is an ant seeing and experiencing when it casts its eyes upwards a looks at us , each species has a particular set of senses that operate in particular ways . Throughout the universes living beings live within different combinations of the material and ethereal, and subtle energies thus the multidimensional planes have no limits practically,  but are deliberately seperated from each other , as the different species in this world are , each  living in their own worlds with no communications between them in real terms.  The Harvard Prof Lisa Randall from Harvard has written on membranes of the universe,  the dimensions where one each one is isolated from another .

    It appears that for various reasons, intrusions may occur deliberately or by accident and some hints of other existences are hinted at or even seen .Telepathy and ghostly matters are also only hinted at and never experienced by 99.9 of the population.  Thus, Divinity and His agents keep everyone and their experiences very much seperated,  free will requires a certain degree of conditioning,  if you could see God , your free will is effected .

  • Crystal clear Bhagavad Gita.

    May 15th, 2026

    If you want to understand something of Krishna along with His supreme dominion and Lordship over everything and everyone , simply read Bhagavad Gita as it is .
    No one could have spoken like this apart from the Personality who originated and engineered everything, the concepts and truths which are all objectifiable , are still incomprehensible in todays modern scientific world, where any observations be in in the microbial world or in universal affairs reveals more and more perfect math ,symmetry ,and obvious design , as one would expect, if Krishna’s Bhagavad Gita is taken as truth .
    http://www.thevedicspectator.com

    The teachings of the Bhagavad Gita, the conversation between Krishna and Arjuna, cover five primary subjects .

    1. Ishvara (The Supreme Lord/Controller): The Gita establishes the existence of a supreme Personality of Godhead who is directly and indirectly conscious of everything and everyone .Lord Krishna is God, who is the creator and controller of all things.
    2. Jiva (The Living Entity/Soul): This refers to the individual spirit soul, who is simultaneously one and different from Divinity, the jiva is distinct from the material body it inhabits , he is spiritual like Krishna.
    3. Prakriti (Material Nature): The material world and nature, which is temporary and acts under the direction of the Supreme Lord. The material  energy is one of God’s direct energies and thus not different than Him .The scientific community understand matter is never destroyed but is transformed,  indeed this is so matter is the eternal energies of God , but an inferia one
    4. Kala (Eternal Time): Time is explained as an indestructible, eternal force that influences and controls the material creation. Space time as Einstein mentioned is combined and relative,  time begins when the  particles of consciousness enter matter and then the  universe expansion begins. Space time continuum means the past , present, and future are interlined by karmic synchronicities that interact and respond to each other in a responsive universe.
    5. Karma (Activities/Action): The law of action and reaction, highlighting that every action has consequences that bind the soul to material life, but can be performed in a way that leads to liberation. Prarabdha karma and aprarabdha karma immediate effects and later effects,  the universal responsive universe along with divine algorithms beyond the comprehension of the greatest of scientists are at play .

    Themes of the Bhagavad Gita .

    • Dharma: Fulfilling one’s duty, whatever that might be , the vedas teach everyone the benefits of duties  spiritual and material that lead to social and spiritual mobility when the two duties are combined.
    • Yoga: Various paths to connect with the divine, including Karma Yoga , Niskama karma , jnana yoga and Bhakti Yoga (devotion), Bhakti should be applied to all types of yoga , that leads to pure Bhakti and spontaneous love of God in an esoteric spiritual original realm
    • Atman: The nature of the true self and its immortality and its position as a part and parcel of God and a service to God is the eternal occupation of the soul .
    • Moksha: Liberation from the cycle of birth and death, three types of liberation which culminate in directly associating with Sri Sri Radha Krishna in the spiritual kingdom of Vrndavana.
    • Detachment: Focusing on duty rather than the rewards of actions , becoming the servant of the servant, and giving all pleasure to the emaculate senses of Krishna, who is the supreme autocrat.

  • The divine and demoniac,  how to calculate

    May 15th, 2026

    On a geopolitical note …

    From the Vedic perspective, we can chime with those who advocate traditional theological cultures and family traditions .
    But equally, the Vedic students understand the principles of non-violence , so in Vedic terms, it means all around non violence , to every living being . The Vedic students are strict vegetarians , but putting that to one side , any Christian, Hindu , Muslim or Jew who is not calling out recent murderous campaign’s in Gazza and Africa by non godly persons who are atheistic leaders in reality , but in  their madness convince themselves God is on their side , are not living up to their faith , they are hypocrites .  Killing  women and children without any condemnation by so-called religious persons shows they are not following God . Such persons are seriously misguided in their  approaches to scriptures .  If they are not called out , then religious persons are failing in their religious duty.
    Defending ones homeland is  legitimate, of course,  so in those cases, warfare is sometimes necessary, and the rules of war are within the Vedas ,  as well as within international laws . No women and children, or non combatant persons, should be harmed .
    In 2020 and beyond , Putin warned Nato not to move on to his Russian borders with militarism and attempts  to infiltrate Russian cultures with liberalism that threatened family and traditional cultures. The geopolitical scholars know he had legitimate concerns , which the current USA administration seems to understand.  It’s a Nato and EU  led lie that he wanted to invade the whole of Ukraine.
    What Israel has done is  unacceptable by any sane man’s reckoning. The history of the Middle East is clear to legitimate scholars , and Palestinians have rights . Israel has been systematically taking away  those rights , and international law knows it and voices it .
    The USA and ISRAEL Zionist movements are not God’s work . However, the extreme Hamas’ so-called ” Islamic ” response , killing civilizations, was and is  demoniac.
    Extremists are the work of the politically currupt who have infiltrated the democratic and religious world . They are sometimes ruthless businessmen who will stop at nothing. Even when brought to the international courts , they ignore rulings.  They will never admit to truths  . Bhagavad Gita gives the run down on the mind of such persons. Krishna speaks of the divine and demoniac qualities , a whole chapter is dedicated to that topic .The current war in Iran has all the hallmarks of the ungodly.

  • Clearly objective,  no need for subjective speculations.

    May 15th, 2026

    Full proof of governance and compliance and its  implications .

    The universal affairs from the orbits of the celestial planets and the movements of the solar winds down to the supervision of the life needs of all living beings , ie. The tiny insects or microbes in the soil within our gardens to the appatite needs of huge African elephants are carried out perfectly and consistently by the supreme intelligence of Divinity and all of His agencies , headed by the 30 million celestial assistants that He employs . They are carried out so perfectly and so far beyond the comprehension of the greatest of scientists that leaders in scientific feilds like Richard Dawkins or Lea Cronin say although the impression of design and order is within everything you should ignore it , this is dishonest subjective sciences.  These rascals say if you don’t ignore design and the obvious appearance of it, then you are not being scientific.

    The intelligent design in everything, in reality,  is the hint of the presence of God . Why does God not personally appear before us ? God lives  in the realms of pure trancendental consciousness along with varigatedness , untouched by the self seeking material modes of nature ,  that are the subtle causes of degrees of material lust ,anger ,envy madness, and illusions .Srila Vyasadeva, in his meditation, saw God Himself Krishna,  and behind Krishna Vyasadeva saw the material energies .

    First , if truth and Divinity are to be understood,  purity of consciousness is required .Truth will decend and be realised by the grace of the absolute truth .The processes of karma yoga ,  niskama karma yoga,  leading to jnana yoga, and pure Bhakti yoga are outlined in the Bhagavad Gita.  The therapeutic processes of using the very energies that bind one to liberate one are employed by the expert spiritual physician. In full knowledge of Divinity, one will see that everything is happening by the order and desire of Krishna. This consciousness is Krishna consciousness .  Design is symptomatic, and it facilitates the macro and micro world ,this is objectively seen and is taking place .The envious never like to see quality that they don’t possess , but by purified consciousness even the envious can be filled with love and appreciation , thus within the governance and compliance systems are purificatory programmes situated within every culture deliberately . A prisoner  who has placed himself in prison needs reformed thinking and rehabilitation, and just as the state provides that, so similarly, Divinity does .

  • The wake up call of the light of the Lord.

    May 14th, 2026

    The photosynthesis  of the sun using certain light frequency reacts on the molecules inside the buds and seeds, causing light energies to transform into chemical energies and the dna information kicks in and starts to function to spurt a regrowth.

    “This statement describes the fundamental process of photomorphogenesis and the initiation of metabolic activity in plants, where light acts not only as an energy source for photosynthesis but also as a signalling cue that triggers genetic instructions. [1, 2]

    Here is a breakdown of how this process works based on current biological understanding:

    1. Light Sensing (The “Wake Up” Signal)

    • Photoreceptors: Seeds and buds contain specialized proteins, such as Phytochromes (which sense red/far-red light) and Cryptochromes (blue light), acting as antennae.
    • DNA Activation: When light hits these receptors, they change shape and move into the nucleus of the cell, where they interact directly with DNA. This triggers the activation ofgenes that were previously dormant, signaling that conditions are right for growth.
    • Breaking Dormancy: In many seeds, light prevents inhibitory proteins (like PIF1) from suppressing germination-related genes, thus “kicking in” the DNA information for development. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

    2. Photosynthesis Initiation

    • Green-up (Greening): Once the light signals germination, the embryonic chloroplasts (called etioplasts) begin to develop into functional chloroplasts.
    • Molecular Energy: Chlorophyll absorbs red and blue light, powering the split of water molecules and creating chemical energy (ATP and NADPH).
    • Bud Development: In buds, photosynthesis often occurs in the sepals (the protective green outer layers), providing immediate energy for cell division and differentiation. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

    3. Growth and Metabolism

    • Production of Energy: The energy from light creates carbohydrates/sugars, which fuel the rapid expansion of cells and the structural development of the plant.
    • Genetic Regulation: Roughly 20% of the plant genome can be regulated by light, meaning sunlight is directly responsible for timing when cells start dividing and differentiating. [1, 2, 3]

    Key Summary: The light from the sun is both the fuel (photosynthesis) and the switch (photoreceptor activation) that directs the plant’s DNA to initiate growth.”

    We simply adore the scientific community who knowingly or unknowing reveals the glorious and unlimited intelligence of Krishna in His Mahavisnu form, who is manifesting simultaneously millions of universes within the multidimensional structures .

    All this is clearly highly specific, and the whole process from beginning to end requires a great deal of planning naturally.

    A genius can come up with all sorts of original ideas and can solve any problems that might occur during  a design process and consequently make adjustments  in various ways .As well, the similar proved  engineering processes can be tweaked and variety and variations for numerous purposes can be employed. Beauty is also an important part of design,  designed and successful products or machines are generally very attractive.

    Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita

    Bg. 9.10

    मयाध्यक्षेण प्रकृति: सूयते सचराचरम् ।
    हेतुनानेन कौन्तेय जगद्विपरिवर्तते ॥ १० ॥

    mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ
    sūyate sa-carācaram
    hetunānena kaunteya
    jagad viparivartate

    Translation

    This material nature, which is one of my energies, is working under my direction, O son of Kuntī, producing all moving and nonmoving beings. Under its rule, this manifestation is created and annihilated again and again.

    Indeed if this is true there must be evidence of fine design,  engineering , beauty,  math symmetry and importantly the process of how everything forms , the codes ,and information exchanges and chemical signalling are the objective sciences , that can not be ignored.
