European and UK leaders have failed to house their own citizens, amongst other failures. They deliberately engineer fixed housing markets controlled by banks , with the help of political friends . Bankers become politicians, and politicians become bankers, so it is said wryly. High House prices mean more profits for banks and financial companies and less money to circulate in other parts of the economy. The government’s are controlled by business conglomorates and financial institutions, who have no interest in housing people at affordable rates , quite the opposite, they engineer shortages of housing , by failures to build social housing and by restricted supply. Weak governments allow them to . The conglomorates lobby governments and donate to political parties. The Vedic systems are socialist based, the middle way , with allowance for a legitimate free trade . Free trade is a word banded about in Western countries , but in reality, we have cooperative monopolies and a currupt housing market as well as many other types of businesses and groceries, for example. There are thousands of children living in temporary accommodation and thousands of homeless persons . Housing for families is often blocks of flats with no garden . What good is that for children? Thus , democracies are failing , educated democracies are needed , where the uncaring politicians are discarded, and the intelligentsia guide political persons who care , and bankers are left out the picture. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
In Vedic terms , every foreign policy decision by any government worldwide is very easily measured . The Vedas give very clear indications as to what are correct judgements based on moral ethics and respect for life and limb . The sincere and learned intelligentsia who are best situated to make such judgements that are based on multiples of assessments as well as Vedic resources will take into account the many variable circumstances in geopolitical affairs. Ultimately, the protection of the innocent is at the forefront of decisions made , clearly, women and children are specifically mentioned in the rules of warfare in the Dhanu Veda . A resetting of injustices that have wrongly affected peoples livelihood and their own cultural and traditional expressions are important and those who intelligently understand ethical geopolitical affairs should be directing international laws along with clear explanations of the reasoning behind decisions . The military follow their lead , and they are never independent of the intelligentsia or discard them in favour of being directed instead by an independent and wrongly motivated political organisation. I am afraid that in today’s world, the intelligentsia are silenced or suppressed, and the puppet governments of the global conglomerates who easily manipulate the masses with social media and mainstream media have usurped power by posing as democracies.
Democracies could be criticised as failed leaders who have no specific leadership qualities, grabbing power from an unintelligent population who are gullible and easily fooled . Autocracy means assuming power from less of the population but who are better suited to understand good leadership qualities . When democracies begin to fail , as they are worldwide , mob rule and curruption occur . The Vedic autocratic systems are excellent , with the autocratic leaders under the Vedic intelligensia’s watch, those who scientifically understood body , mind and consciousness, and the workings of the universe.
The whole process of Krishna consciousness is a transformational one . The principle is that everything we have , whatever it might be , should be offered in devotion for the pleasure of Divinity. How is He pleased ? That’s a very important question, and how do we know He is pleased is another . It is indicated in the Vedas that God is pleased when we do things out of pure love . So naturally, the next question is, how can one love God . That question begins to be answered when we know who God is . Before we understand who God is, we must know what God is , we can not merely say God without having any idea of what He is and how to identify Him from other beings.
You may be pleased to know all the above questions are answered in their fullness within the Vedas , there is not one question that the Vedas could not give answers to ..
We find many ignorant persons say ” there is no God ” ,but when we say what is God , and if their were a God, how do you think we’d know …..they are clueless, the “No God ” statement comes from the unthinking and unscientific.
One should be bearing in mind that the Vedas indicates the material universes are built on the transformed and devolved Brahman energy , otherwise known as spiritual light . The effulgence and energies of God , which serve multifarious purposes, are non different to Him and multidimensional in makeup. Instant communication as well as transportation faster than the speed of light are puzzling concepts . Not to the Vedic students , who understand that a mind provides instant transportation . Now , because the Brahman effulgence spreads throughout the multidimensional universes , and has been in some cases transformed into mater , its part of Divinity Himself , He is fully conscious of every part of it , so not a blade of grass moves without Him being conscious of it . Instant communication means Divinity knows everything instantaneously about His extensive energies as much as we know what’s going on within our own bodies . When anyone uses anything in the service of God , such as sound , literatures , any of the elements of matter , or our minds and intelligence , because of being used in connection with Divinity as an offering to Him , it directly connects our consciousness to the consciousness of Divinity . By following the directions of the previous transcendental Proffesors , who have all given expert directions, we can scientifically and spiritually make divine connections . At that point , the….”I ” “me “, and ” mine” changes . The purified concept of…. “I am a part and parcel of God begins to develop. Further, one can realise God and His associates are my actual family , in the sense that I belong with them exclusively. The consciousness is changed. Everything we do and see is transformed and will remind us of Divinity and transport us immediately to the spiritual world. When Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada or any pure devotee stands before the Marble Deity , he stands before Krishna Himself . When he reads the Krishna Lila recorded by the Goswami’s or other renowned acaryas, he enters into the spiritual and trancendental topics .When he chants Gods name or recites the Bhagavatam, he is within the spiritual world. This is the experience of a top most ‘ Uttama ‘ devotee . The material sounds and actions reverberate and take one into much further entanglements , of which there are many possibilities . However, when spiritual actions are performed, matter can be and is transformed. For example, if you heat up iron in fire, it acts like fire , someone may say , no, it’s iron , we say touch it , it is like fire .
The more gold is kept in fire, the purer it becomes. If the student keeps themselves in the fire of Krishna consciousness, everything can be gradually transformed, and the so-called matter transports one instantaneously to spiritual consciousness. Thus, all God’s energies are spiritual in one sense and transformational each interacts with the other ….
In regards to the current world view of our so-called leaders …
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.
What body of facts have the Darwinians got .?
Has their hypothesis been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. ?
Are the Darwinians guessing. ?
They have no real facts. Nothing is repeatedly confirmed , they are guessing . Objective reality….?, they have a failing hypothoisis , Unguided chance mutations and scientific materialism as a world model that’s driving the modern world in harmful and exploitative . It needs replacing with the consciousness revolution . Dualism has far-reaching implications and changes every calculation . Consciousness studies must be learned from those who realise the oneness of all beings in the huge array of diversities and not from the so called religious but uneducated and unthinking fanatic who fails to see a multicultured world along with various theistic cultures . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
I really do hope Lord Nrsingadeva steps on to the freedom flotilla, at least for a while. I very much appreciate Greta Thunberg as she rightly calls out bad leaders . Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada would often do the same…. “Rascals “he would say , the majority of them ,and the majority of the scientists “cheaters “. Greta is extremely intelligent and a real humanitarian , she puts herself on the line and stands up for what is right . May God bless that ship and all who sail in her .
If every international charity and even more locally well situated charities like BBC children in need followed the inspirational and practical actions of Greta Thunberg and her team with their own flotilla’s , that would send a message to the world “leaders ” , of course they are not . Humanity lives on in the people of the world and not in ” Democratic ” so-called leaders .. I suggest such charities immediately make such plans and do something constructive . Religious organisations can also do the same, including Jewish ones who oppose Zionism in its extreme forms.
One simple tweak to societal arrangements will cure the problems of mankind…
What is that .?
The administrative classes , the politicians, should have no direct relationships with the business classes either for funding or advice . Instead their sole advisors should be the scholarly intelligensia who are very much connected to those that understand the philosophy of science and consciousness , who are familiar with Theological cultures , those who possess the vision of seeing the true equality of all beings .. Vote in administrators , provided they are administered .
Prince William and David Attenborough are completely wasting their time addressing hypocritically based conferences addressing the state of the ocean attended by the those very political classes, and paid for by those global conglomerates , both of who are the persons and companies responsible for the state of the ocean . Deep sea mining for metals used for a computer age has already started ….we have seen nothing yet , the world has arrived at a critical moment. God has given us the real intelligensia. We must give them empowerment . Better the Prince invites Greta Thunberg to the Palace along with her activists…..but he will be forbidden to do so . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
By serving the pure representatives of Divinity and by accessing their thoughts , writings, and teachings , all that one once was is gone and all that one is eternally destined to become unfolds itself. The past influences within the material energies no longer have any taste for such a person, and a new enthusiasm builds for the ever new , the highest taste always defeats the lower . Krishna, in His Bhagavad Gita, explains the perfection of yoga , the therapeutic process systematically leading one to the absolute truth..
visayah—objects for sense enjoyment; vinivartante—are practiced to be refrained from; niraharasya—by negative restrictions; dehinah—for the embodied; rasa-varjam—giving up the taste; rasah—sense of enjoyment; api—although there is; asya—his; param—far superior things; drstva—by experiencing; nivartate—ceases from.
TRANSLATION
The embodied soul may be restricted from sense enjoyment, though the taste for sense objects remains. But, ceasing such engagements by experiencing a higher taste, he is fixed in consciousness.
I suggest that when unthinking politicians declare religion has no place in political affairs it should be obvious to the thinking public just how ignorant they might be and how they are truly unrepresentative of decent minded and philosophically astute . What foolish notions to declare themselves independent of Divinity and theological cultures stemming back hundreds of thousands of years and replace it with scientific materialism or the Darwinian agenda, because they have been indoctrinated at public schools by teachers who had been similarly educated. It time for society to wake up yo the unthinking and replace them with the philosophically astute intelligentsia who scientifically understand dualism , the sciences of consciousness at all that brings . Take a look at our world led by unthinking politicians who are enslaved financially by their global conglomerate masters and by the cheating scientific community who are fond of presenting their subjective thinking as objective fact based science and teaching it to school children. The Vedas indicates that the theological intelligentsia do not directly lead society but provide the ethics ,morals, and sciences of every kind in to society at large utalising honest scholars of various fields who have not given up on objective sciences and blindly accepted subjective indoctrinations . The intelligentsia see to the order of societal progressions for everyone , social and spiritual mobility that’s based on body , minds , intelligences and consciousness. The current unthinking exploitative political classes who work and are funded by the global conglomerates cater only to the bodily demands and make all kinds of immoral plans to increase any demands, as long as it turns a profit . This in a consumer driven world where profits are king and the unguided people are their slaves .
Who is who ?
Governance, compliance, and the role of an independent intelligentsia are very well documented in the Vedas. Society was taken as a whole body. Without the head , the body has no value and is going nowhere. The belly , arms, and legs are all valuable parts of the body, no doubt when the intelligence is properly integrated . Social mobility , consciousness mobility , and systematic and appropriate education for everyone have always been integral within the histories of the Vedic societies , and their applications are well understood by the intelligentsia. Fraudulent persons , who do not understand the greater picture are posing as the intelligentsia and do great harm to society, but the checks and balances of who is and who isn’t a member of the intelligensia and what their symptoms are are also given within Vedas. . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Fundermental truth applies at all times in all places and is interconnected and connected with everything.
Once one fundermental truth is actually understood in full, all truths are understood . Everything and everyone are connected to truth , nothing lies outside it , even illusions and deceitfulness are indirectly connected to truth .
Krishna says, ” I am your only friend.” He further says, ” All beings are my parts and parcels and belong to Me, but they are currently entangled within material nature. ⁰” The relative karmic synchronicities are all connected to an original absolute truth
The expression back home back to Godhead should be understood carefully, and the philosophy of the Vedas provides a full analysis of who we are and what a permanent home looks and feels like . The absolute truth is understood only if He wants Himself to be known to someone. Otherwise, He is not known and indeed He remains the biggest mystery to mankind.
Srimad Bhagavatam contains the Sruti , the Smriti , Tantra, and Purana. Srila Jiva Goswami has accepted this authority as bone fide epistemology . Anything outside of that as being not transparent truth , but at the most , mixed speculations that may or may not bring one closer to understanding absolute truth . The absolute truth is spoken in the Bhagavad Gita, by Lord Kṛṣṇa, and subsequently in the Srimad Bhagavatam and the Caitanya Caritamrta, which is regarded as the post graduate study. Anything calculated utilising the 5 ,(the sences ) the 3 (mind ,intellect or speculations) or the nine , (senses along with sensual experiences) will be tainted with material calculations and it will forever fall within the conditioned modes of material nature. Trancendental topics are described as Pure Subdha brahman , knowledge in suddha sattva or pure goodness, untainted by lust , anger ,greed envy, and illusion pertaining to the body . Such Trancendental vibration being empowered by Divinity and of the same nature as the absolute . Divinity is always present within the teachings of the Sadhus, Guru’s, and Sastra of the Bramha Gaudia sampradaya. Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur has begun to present these topics to a western audience, and his son Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja the spiritual master took matters further and Srila A.C.BHAKTIVEDANTA Swami , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja disciple , has taken those matters and has made all our acaryas teachings accessible and understandable to a world wide audience in recent times .
While pantheism asserts that “all is God”, panentheism claims that God is greater than the universe.
Gaudia Tattva . God is both the universe and not the universe , thus the full truth of Divinity is given in the Srimad Bhagavatam.
The following explains how different parts of the Vedas that are indirectly connected to ultimate spiritual emotions have been utilised by the great trancendental scholar Srila Rupa Goswami.
Bharat muni completed his Natya sastra , a study of the rasa of mundane love. Srila Rupa Gosvami adopted some of the rasa explanation of Bharat Muni to explain the origins of unlimited rasa of the spiritual realm from the reflected version that we find in the material worlds , both in higher , middle and lower planetary systems explained in the fith Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam. Srila Rupa Goswami intentions were to give some hint of spiritual rasas and the tastes of a spiritual varigatedness with a spiritual body with a spiritual mind ,intelligence, and spiritual senses. So the technical sneha , mana , pranaya , raga , anuraga, principles are explained by Bharat Muni and adopted by Rupa Goswami. Of course, Rupa Goswami adds the further and higher realms of pure prem and spiritual bhava and mahabhava. Higher explanation of rasa are introduced by Rupa Goswami to take the subject beyond the conception of material rasa that can be experienced to a fractional and limited degree in the material world bringing our attention to the unlimited trancendental rasa displayed in Vraj , wherein the 64 excellences of spiritual unlimited qualities are displayed which are ever increasing and are ever new .
Varigatedness of touch , sound ,smell, taste, and sight within matter is one thing . It is experienced differently according to ones acquired senses, everything that lives has this experience along with a particular thinking , feeling, and willing . The spiritual kingdom is not lacking varigatedness, except the bodies there are made of the same energies as the consciousness. In the spiritual kingdom, you are your body permanently. But with ever-increasing enthusiasm and no feelings of stalemate or bring satiated , the thinking , feeling, and willing are full of ecstatic bliss, and each relationship increases this bliss . The Supreme personality of Godhead and the Supreme Goddess of fortune instigate such wondrously playful pastimes. One can not stop feeling thinking or feeling, that is the nature of the soul , the soul is consciousness. Although it is a fact that the impersonal effulgence of Divinity is absent of varigatedness and there one can merge into a satifying deep sleep, wouldn’t you rather be awake and active?.
In Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s letter to Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja, we get a hint of what’s to come. To establish Krishna consciousness within society at large the Sankirtana movement of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu would move both in peripheral and cor ways, in doing so the internal are brought to the externals and the internal are brought to the external as the cor and peripherals interface. The founder of the International Society for Krishna consciousness has set firm footholds, there is no going back , irresistibly all souls are being caught up, and the demons will be defeated http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Is 1+1 always 2 of course it is everyone will say , must be .
Although if we look out to the multidimensional spiritual realms, one can be situated inside and outside , near and far , universally gigantic or atomic in size ..We must consider the laws of physics and how and why thd act thd way they do and who or what are experiencing them .In the world of dualism of mind matter and consciousness, one set of laws may affect one part of the equation but not the combination. When you dream at night, are the laws of nature at work ? In an absolute realm .
I+1=1 and 1 – 1 = 1 These calculations are based on the Vedic aphorism.
Inconceivably and simultaneously oneness and difference.
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 along with the radiation effects in one part of the universe, the Vedas indicates , is variable throughout a multidimensional pland . Thus, the life 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 is simultaneously one with everything , so 1+1 =1 inside outside , Everywhere, but nowhere , near but far indicates oneness, quantum physics speaks on instant communication , so this very well fits in , what one part of the universe is doing trillions of miles away the localised part knows.
Thus the original source of consciousness is not subjected to material calculations. ….and neither are his particles. But in conditioned consciousness they are totally subjected , thus although they are one , they can experience extreme differences.
Thus , 1+1=2
Divinity is 1- 1 = 1 .
He remains as one when the material universes are brought back inside of Himself ,,along with all the parts and parcels of consciousness.
Einstein called aspects of quantum as spooky action at a distance that which referred to one part of the universe knowing immediately what another part is doing even 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.. imposed upon him by the laws of time and nature , to consider a reality in real terms . It’s a fact that only a tiny percentage of light spectrum is observed by humans , 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, declares ,” 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 . The acceptance of subjective speculations may begin to subside and objective sciences may become apparent to them http://www.thevedicspectator.com
