For the” trained ” and ” educated “atheistic persons who have accepted subjective speculations as fact based sciences , we tell them to look again . One who follows neurons firing in a brain and proceeds to call it  consciousness , and the only explanation acceptable ,  just  because their scientific Prof . told them so , are selling themselves scientifically short . They have been fleeced , their logic and intelligence have been stolen. Stolen by “teachers ” who parrot scientific materialism as fact based sciences because they are paid to do so . Whilst at the same time the better part of their logical abilities are drowning in the narratives of the Darwinian primordial soup , once you’re in that primordial slime , it sticks like glue to the mind and body , almost impossible to shift , ask Dawkins . Simply blindly accepting subjective opinions as fact based sciences is realistically called cheating sciences.
Insights, intuitive capacities,  and consciousness taught  from the dualistic platform , ie . as separate energies , have a greater place in sciences.  For those who can climb out the primordial slime , which can  fixate them and trap them in the world of atoms , elements and compounds , and within their own particular and individually tailored space time continuum….. Its a chance for freedom from Darwinian dogma ,they can free themselves or  lose themselves in the many possibilities of quantum uncertainty as described by Niels Bohr in the Copenhagen agreement.

Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami on consciousness.

“Indriyāṇi parāṇy āhur indriyebhyaḥ paraṁ manaḥ, manasas tu parā buddhir [Bg. 3.42].

[The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher than the senses; intelligence is still higher than the mind; and he [the soul] is even higher than the intelligence.]

So there are different platforms and status of consciousness. Bodily consciousness means sensual consciousness. Above that, there is mental consciousness, speculative, philosophical, and poetic. Above that, intellectual consciousness. And Kṛṣṇa consciousness—above intellectual consciousness.”

The fact that the ” democracies ” of the ” free ” world and its people turn away from the Suffering in Gazza , and as well the constant exploitative wars in Africa, whilst they enjoy their luxurious lives of sense gratification, shows the current psychological state of an advanced modern and desensitised world, it will come back to bite them all , universal laws demand it ….Scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis will not help , the ruthless killers or those that choose to ignore and allow the killing and injustices cannot hide in flawed sciences .

Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada says ..
If you kill somebody, then you’ll be killed also. So why not God’s law like that? But they are ignorant; they are killing animals. That is ignorance. Killing means sin. Why they are committing this sin? Ignorance. He does not know the law that he will also be killed. Karma-bandhana. Yajñārthāt karmaṇo ‘nyatra karma-bandhanaḥ [Bg. 3.9]. He’ll be bound up by his action. And he does not know. That is ignorance.

So this whole world is…, this material world is full of ignorance. Therefore, it is called tamasi. Tamasi mā jyotir gama. That ignorance is, I mean to say, dissipated simply by Kṛṣṇa consciousness. There is no other method. Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanaṁ [Cc. Antya 20.12]. Simply by Kṛṣṇa consciousness, ignorance can be dissipated. Otherwise, not. Not possible..end .

The Christian Bible says thou shall not kill .

Every theological text confirms no taking of innocent lives .

We may say that Krishna consciousness focuses on three areas , the re-establishment of the socio-political aspects of the Vedas, featured in the Artha sastra, and the Dharma sastra , the re-establishment of the systemic scientific knowledge of dualism, along with the various philisophical and scientific teachings in the Jnana Sastra , and finally the propagation of the portions of the Vedas , that establish Bhakti tattva, that are elaborated upon within the Sruti and Smriti of the Bhakti Sastras , particularly the Srimad Bhagavatam and the Caitanya Caritamrta, focusing on the Sankirtana movements of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu, inclusive of mass Harinama Sankirtana , and culminating in a deep understanding and practice of the meditations within Rasa tattva as taught by the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana headed by Rupa and Ragganatha Goswami’s and taught by them in their extensive litratures .

The blogsite The Vedic Spectator explores foundational Vedic literature, balancing societal duties, empirical or philosophical pursuit, and ultimate devotion. It frames these ancient texts not as mere historical artifacts but as a progressive framework for human life and spiritual awakening. Most importantly the Vedic spectator writes of the Srimad Bhagavatam,  in the Srimad Bhagavatam the Supreme Personality of Godhead is immediately captured within the heart , no other portion of the Vedas can do this . This is possible because the author of the Bhagavatam is Krishna dvaipayana Vyasa , directly Krishna who is writing about His own glories .Why do some people not have an interest in the Srimad Bhagavatam,  its because of lack of Sukriti,  trancendental credits , the Sankirtana movements of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu are immediately creating trancendental credits for everyone,  just by hearing the Names of Krishna or any name of God trancendental credits are transferred. The process of Krishna consciousness includes spontaneous attractions , and an assistant,  called Sadhana Bhakti ,  this helps those who remain locked in mentality that’s unfavourable to pure devotional moods.

Core Themes Explored

• Socio-Political Vedas: Views the early Vedic texts as providing the structural and moral foundation for maintaining social order, duty, and righteous living (dharma) within human civilization.
• Jnana Sastra (Knowledge): Highlights texts and philosophical inquiries focused on cultivating wisdom, discerning the material from the spiritual, and dismantling ignorance.
• Bhakti Sastra (Devotion): Elevates texts like the Srimad Bhagavatam and the Caitanya Caritamrta as the crowning zenith of Vedic literature, shifting the spiritual journey from detached intellectual knowledge to pure, voluntary love for the Supreme .

Kamsa kamsa, you’re such a fool

King Kamsa thought he could rid himself of Krishna and as well the predestined curse of him being killed by Krishna . What he decided to do was to kill the children of his sister, who was  Krishna’s mother, to be . Kamsa was , unfortunately for him , fooled by the divine arrangements of Yoga maya . Krishna was smuggled out of his mother’s home , just after birth, and He was replaced by what appeared to be a daughter , but  who was Yoga Maya, the Goddess who arranges for Krishna’s pastimes . Krishna’s return to kill Kamsa came later and is described in the tenth canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam. Old demon Kamsa could not escape his fate .
Demon kings or demon leaders  like to kill children , they have no sense of discrimination. Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has already changed the destiny of the world by his benedictions . It can be changed by blessings and good fortune.  The Sattvic intelligentsia are building in numbers , and the ignorant and demoniac spirit is to be  defeated , its a war of insights , those who have true scientific knowledge of scientific dualism,  and understand the self-evident truths of the equality of all beings before Divinity will prevail , justice and peace will predominate in essential areas of administration.  Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu movements are increasingly bringing light to where  darkness once predominated . Everyone will know of the significance and glories of Vedic culture, both of its  peripherals, and its rasa tattva cor , Mahāprabhu reveals everything through the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana whom He taught , and the param para that follow them elaborate further in modern times.  As was the case for  Kamsa , “too late”  Krishna had already taken birth but deceived Kamas , his  death was inevitable . Mahāprabhu has already come and left all arrangements . The death of demoniac civilizations is also inevitable.

A material world is a place where all kinds of facts and truths are ignored, and multiples of narratives and twisted lies , of all kinds , are sung as truth . In the demoniac world,  the better you are pulling the wool over peoples eyes and better sence , and the better you are at establishing  cancel culture , where the intelligentsia are ignored , the more popular you become . The demoniac are expert at singing narratives , and many demon friends compose their music . Dens of thievery and dishonesty wherein cheaters and the cheated live is what we see . They are intensive competitions with other demon leaders , there are no rules , and all rules books are tossed out the window , murdering children and women,  no problem for them .

If you are genuinely close to absolute truth naturally , you will instinctively act and think in truthful ways , by association, one becomes what he or she is. Association with snakes and scorpions brings poisoning and stings of many kinds , as opposed to an association of  newly born calves or the child like simplicity of saintly persons .
Thus the Vedic culures emphasis is education and association ,  along with spiritual and social mobility stemming from those who are the Sattvic  intelligentsia who possess and act in truth .  Part of the truth is to know and identify untruth and stop it in its tracks .The objective world scientifically demonstrates self-evident truth . only the untruthful would say it doesn’t . The self-evident truth of the equality of all beings is always observed by the truthful.

Effectively, the EU, UK,Canada ,and USA are at war with Russia. They are betting Russia will fold eventually and surrender their borders to Nato influences and Western libertine cultures. They are also betting that the Russian government will never use neuclar, so nato calculates eventually Russia will be worn down in conventional war …..along with financial sanctions…..Will Russia surrender its ancient cultures and family traditions to new libertine cultures that are driven by scientific materialism, Darwinian hypothesis and liberalism, along with Western monopolies and centralised financial institutions, all that will bring changes to family and theological traditions and cultures
Or will Russia take a different route ..

The Nato war on Russia which is now causing devastating shortage of grain and gas and oil supplies, to Europe and Africa, coupled with the drought, will have an even more devastating effect on food prices, there will be shortages of grains , coming soon down the line . European Gas reserves are 35% short , this winter , if  it’s a cold winter  , it  will be cold and expensive for many .In Africa gain shortage means starvation…Our democracies have been overrun by libertine dreamers , who are in reality centralising power bases , who seek further and further monopolies and global business interests , the general person is not in the picture …They do anything to extend territories,  they want Ukraine and then Russia.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu showed us the importance of accepting different gurus , Siksa, and Diksa . One Diksa , and  many Siksa for some  , but one or two prominent advanced Siksa . In Mahāprabhu’s case, a sannyasa guru .The sastra sanga of our param para acaryas can also be considered Siksa , says Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu received spiritual initiation and guidance through four  principal figures in His lineage: Īśvara Purī as His initiating (dīkṣā) guru, Mādhavendra Purī as His grand-spiritual master (parama-guru), as such His  Siksa of the previous acaryas though their litratures which Mahāprabhu heard from to assist His deep meditations .

Keśava Bhāratī  as His renunciation (sannyāsa) guru.

Ramananda Roy… His Siksa Guru in Rasa tattva .

The four very personal Gurus in Mahāprabhu’s Life plus his associates from Sastra sanga.

Īśvara Purī (Initiating Guru): Lord Caitanya accepted Īśvara Purī as His dīkṣā-guru in Gaya, where He received the divine Gopāla mantra. Īśvara Purī was known for his extreme humility and pure devotion.

---

Mādhavendra Purī (Grand-Spiritual Master / Param-Guru): Though Mahāprabhu did not take direct physical initiation from him, Mādhavendra Purī is considered the root source of the Gaudiya tradition’s ecstatic love. His verse expressing deep separation from Krishna (“ayi dīna-dayārdra-nātha he”) laid the foundational emotional and theological blueprint for Mahāprabhu’s mission. He represents the Sastra sanga and the param para acaryas. They are all important guru’s in the devotees lives .

---

Keśava Bhāratī (Sannyāsa Guru): At age 24, Lord Caitanya accepted the formal order of sannyāsa (renunciation) from Keśava Bhāratī in the town of Katwa. During the ceremony, He was given the monastic name Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya.

Ramananda Roy.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu positioned Himself as a student and accepted Ramananda Raya as His instructor on rasa-tattva (the confidential science of transcendental loving relationships with Krishna) during their historic meeting on the banks of the Godavari River.

The Meeting and Role Reversal

• Location: Vidyanagar, on the banks of the Godavari River.
• The Dynamic: Although Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu was a renounced sannyāsī and spiritual teacher, He humbly approached Ramananda Raya—a householder and state governor—to learn the deepest truths of devotional service.
• The Dialogue: Mahaprabhu asked questions about the ultimate goal of life, and Ramananda Raya systematically answered, moving from external religious duties (varnashrama-dharma) to pure devotional service (shuddha-bhakti).

Core Teachings of Rasa-Tattva

• Gradual Progression: Ramananda explained the scaling mellows of devotion, moving from passive servitude (dasya) and friendship (sakha) to parental affection (vatsalya) and conjugal love (madhurya).
• The Highest Peak: The ultimate confidential truth discussed was the supreme devotion and pure love exemplified by the gopis (cowherd maidens) of Vrindavan toward Lord Krishna, specifically the mood of Srimati Radharani.
• In Krishna consciousness we must understand Guru tattva in all its intracrasies, and the qualities of specific gurus who Krishna sends to us according to our needs at a particular time of our life . If you want to know Krishna He will send a Guru , Krishna is known in unlimited ways and in different relationships.  Guru is one and comes in many forms,  Sri Guru is the direct manifested form of Krishna.

Suspicion and doubt comes later ….

Children are naturally simple hearted , the qualities of spiritual consciousness. By simple heartedness, we can approach Krishna , not with suspicion or doubt . Neither can we approach Sri Guru properly in that frame of mind . In this way, we can learn from children, and we should not impose adulthood upon  them too early . The adult becomes  crooked , suspicious, and  doubtful , there are as a consequence dealings of duplicity , these are the components of self calculations . …Some protaction for education should be there for smaller  children , but light touch , children enjoy being children . Simplicity is Vaisnavism as Srila Gour Govinda Swami would say ..if you offer a child a sweet they will immediately take it …..they will not think “Oh why is this person offering a sweet what are they after .”….The pure hearted disciple immediately accepts Krishna consciousness. But in duplicitous adulthood , there is first suspicion , then doubt . Everything is cleared by intelligence and faith . The child needs careful protection, but not made prematurely into adults , that comes later.

In spiritual life, faith carries us a long way , and doubts are slayed with the sword of knowledge .  Todays woke libertine world means  its even more vital to protect ourselves from all kinds of influences of libertine new age cultures that are increasingly turning human culture of consciousness into  merely gross culture , based on sensuality , and chasing every minds desire . Certainly, it’s a dangerous place in that sense , it’s a sophisticated animal life , not human . Children need looking out for and educated in spiritual dualism,  the objective scientific observations naturally bring that conclusion . Scientific materialism is unnatural . and adults alike need re-education . Theologically based sciences teach authentic sciences of dualism , following traditional conservation of cultural traditions.

Look out for the business conglomerates…..

The very worst thing about global conglomerate liberalisations and monopolistic business theories  are that the  busines men are clueless about social sciences , they are not philosophically minded , and they  lack true sensitivity , they can never lead society . Businessmen have their place in society  , but always below the administrations  , and of course, the intelligentsia ,  who alone properly understand scientifically based dualism and all encompasing progressive world societies .
When the unthinking businessmen get free reigns , he creates havoc by his constant greed for profit .Within global economics the unthinking businessmen become very rich . Being less intelligent by nature, they spend money unwisely in increasing exploitations , creating  very many miseries ,  and many deaths by wars that they instigate.  They spread woke libertine atheistic cultures . Give lots of money to a fool he or she spends it  in harmful ways . The intelligentsia have to watch over them and place certain restrictions upon them so that the people , the planet , and all its  living inhabitants stay protected.
The Vedic culture condemns global economics and monopolised societies brought about by greed and poor administrations.

In many senses, it could be said that the Srimad Bhagavatam is  only ever really understood thoroughly, having understood the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu , and the significance of His appearance . His teachings are brought into focus through the lens of Srila Krishna das Kaviraja in his Bengali writing called  the Caitanya Caratamrita .
Certainly , this was the experience of Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur, who brought the Vedic teachings within both the Srimad Bhagavatam and the Caitanya Caritamrta to the modern world through his son Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and though Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami disciples particularly in his world preaching and writings Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
The Smriti of the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana are the absolute essence of what Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu had revealed and what Krishna das Kaviraja points us all to . The varni of the Goswami’s through their litratures and the Acaryas who further deliberate or speak on them is known as  “Sabdha Brahman ” pure trancendental sounds that penetrate the conditioned heart and reveal the highest spiritual realms . Thus, Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita that if you want to know the truth, you must approach the spiritual master who has realised the truth, having heard it from his spiritual master and rendered services under his direction . If one has done so, the whole of the param para will open up , and the Sastra sanga of the Goswami’s and their followers may by their grace and mercy be understood. The Srimad Bhagavatam and the position of Radha Krishna can not be understood without going through Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His representatives .  Such a lila is puzzling to even South Indian top most Brahminical Sattvic devotees . Yet Mahāprabhu is distributing knowledge of the most confidential portions of the Bhagavatam to one and all . This is certainly most mysterious and magnanimous.

Bg. 7.24

अव्यक्तं व्यक्तिमापन्नं मन्यन्ते मामबुद्धय: ।
परं भावमजानन्तो ममाव्ययमनुत्तमम् ॥ २४ ॥

avyaktaṁ vyaktim āpannaṁ
manyante mām abuddhayaḥ
paraṁ bhāvam ajānanto
mamāvyayam anuttamam

Unintelligent men, who do not know Me perfectly, think that I, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, was impersonal before and have now assumed this personality. Due to their small knowledge, they do not know My higher nature, which is imperishable and supreme.

Some think Krishna is ultimately an impersonal brahman and that His body is made of matter like theirs .

The question arising is that in the material world , bodies , personalities , minds, and intelligences are different ,  same atoms , elements , compounds , same ethereal subtle energies composing of the minds and intelligences , but one personality is highly cultured ,  a perfect character , and another is a crook , or a  murderous or a sexual deviant. The Darwinian is clueless as to why . What is it that drives one person one way and another in another . Only the Vedas explains the sciences of dualism and a responsive and continuous universe ,and its cyclic movement. The primordial sludge has no place , neither non-existent mutational math nor bears turning into whales .

When it comes to Krishna and the residents of the spiritual kingdoms , it’s clear that in the Vedas , their spiritual bodies are not subjected to any material conditioned controls . Their spiritual minds and spiritual intelligences  are within a spiritual varigatedness where personalities flow harmoniously in spiritual bliss and where soul on soul exchanges of love take place . Here, when you see or hear or feel , it’s through waves of light , waves of sound , or waves of mental energies. There is no direct contact .

Not in the spiritual kingdoms , there , your soul sees , hears , feels , and touches .When Krishna hears the gopies speak waves of inexplicable spiritual bliss flow directly into his spiritual heart , and the music from Krishna flute carries Krishna’s heart into the heart of Srimati Radharani.

We should never compare Krishna lila with our conditioned like , as we can’t compare glass with diamonds.

Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur indicates in his Bhagavad Gita purport chap.4 text 36

That if one has been able to begin to acquire knowledge of mind , body , and consciousness to a standard of at least coming towards Brahman consciousness , ie. The clear  knowledge of the consciousness as separate from the material body , known as scientific dualism , then peace  begins to be established within the heart , hankering and lamenting begin to diminish from the heart , chasing down sense gratification begins to be less of a priority. Knowledge is acquired by regulatory life , duty, and sacrifices . The fourth chapter of the Bhagavad Gita enlightens us in all processes of sacrifice . Another key feature to knowledge and sacrifice is that it destroys Aprarabdha karma , future sufferings that were due . The karmic chain has begun to be broken . The senses are no longer functioning without control , as they were , like an unthinking animal , in terms of dualism . Senses out of control are the cause of the responsive universe awarding further karmic synchronicities along with the ethereal states of mind .

Although Aprarabdha karma is destroyed through knowledge, Prarabdha karma is not , so karmic synchronicities keep  following from previous conditioning in the current body , these are Prarabdha karmas . However, Bhakti sacrifices are done with pure knowledge of devotion to Krishna and they immediately reestablish  devotion and destroy both  Aprarabdha and Prarabdha karma.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has brought to this world the easiest process of sacrifices , bringing knowledge,  of pure Bhakti to Krishna.

Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami explains all and has spread this process of Sankirtana sacrifice all over the world, and some of the most sinful persons have very quickly become knowledgeable of pure devotion to Krishna. By Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu mercy, a lame man can walk , a blind man can see, and a dumb man can compose eloquent poetry.

Trancendental knowledge of a higher plane , some trancendental insights into such a plane , and importantly some faith in the process along with  mercy decending from a spiritual realms ,  can carry one a long way .
