Srimad Bhagavatam. the essence
In the history of Vedic kings from hundreds of thousands of years ago , the Vedas tell of their duties. The kings were not centralising monopolerlisers who sought to gain wealth and power for themselves , rather, they were overseeing the standards for mankind and gave protections to all who lived , including the animals . They made sure rouges and thieves were kept in their place and also saw to it that cultured scientific educational purposes were established by the devolved localised governments and local intelligentsia . According to Vedic history, which has been going back millions of years , such kings in former times took care of the whole planet .The myth of apes and cavemen and discovery of fire etc etc, is overhyped Darwinian guessing. Today’s globalists want exploitation of all nations and to control directly or indirectly political power , and they importantly want all the money and resources for their increasing monopolies. These persons are low class businessmen who are completely clueless when it comes to cultured consciousness. They are at most sophisticated animals
The unprecedented levels of world communications and global influences mean the good , the bad , and the darn right ugly have their tentacles everywhere. Nothing escapes anyone … Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur comments that any progression in the modern world can greatly assist preaching the messages of the Vedas , but Srila Ragganatha das Goswami warns the devotees who are serious about bhajan , not to get caught up in the prostitutes of political matters , gangs of thugs of lust ,dog meat eating ladies dancing in the heart akin to pride , he also warns against drinking donkey urine , representative of offending saints and good people. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Different faiths and multicultural society can work if the differences are looked at in terms of sadhana , sadhana means practice, and practice implies something not perfected . The practice may differ , and what are faiths practising ? How to love God , along with loving God one naturally sees everything and everyone in connection with God . There are first class , second class , and third class followers who practice how to love God , and their qualities should be clear in the minds of all . In todays world there is no clarity, no real understanding of how the practice is a practice that has the same goals . Secular society often means allowing lots of faiths , but minimising the importance of faith and allowing political sciences , contrived social sciences with libertine intent , and atheistic Darwinian hypothesis and scientific materialism to prosper in educational circles . Separating theological cultures and sciences from state affairs and handing such all important affairs to at most third class religious persons, persons who cannot understand theological perfection , neither how to conduct governance and compliance , is where the world stands , on the brink of disaster.
In the Vedas, the intelligentsia , who understand the self evident truth of the equality of everyone in the eyes of God , and who know how the different types of worship structure and assist in the progressive psychological journey of everyone, such persons are the prominent lead for everyone. Every aspect of governance must have their input , political, scientific , economics, social sciences etc .
Separating the state from religion has become a free for all for people with lower states of consciousness .Democracies have boiled down to fools voting in fools , and we need educated democracies. The Vipras, the Brahminical, and the pure devotees are silenced in real terms in todays democracies. Means the scholars, the pure thinkers who are philosophically minded and the very pure first class lovers of God who lead exclusive lives for His service.
The Srimad Bhagavatam and the Bhagavad Gita reveal all when it comes to social sciences and real religion and its progression and goal , it calls the param gatim .
Wild horses, the unthinking, and the unintelligent .
Karl Marx said religion suppressed people and thought he knew better . A path to freedom from conformity and authority , Karl thought , was intellectually , mentally, and physically highly appropriate and would bring great freedoms and happiness . Why should society accept Karl’s warped understanding of the philosophy of science and religion? It may be the case that speculative religious Zionist want to in corrupted ways use religion for political purposes, but that should not mean the theological teachings are bad , its how they are applied that is the problem .Karl Marx was a fool for not properly understanding mind matter and consciousness scientifically within the material world , and a greater fool to think he could bring freedom whilst at the same time binding people in a different way . Many others today think in similar ways , scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis takes people down similar paths in the name of happiness and freedoms. Life should not be a guessing game of following the speculative intellect of any Tom Dick or Harry , but rather we should examine life properly and hear and understand from the wise and educated in the real sciences of life , and as well examine their life style and character. We have experience that a child needs the authority of the loving , caring parent who has learned parenting from generations of parents . A parent who has the appropriate experience and widom to nourish and guide the child is essential. In life, everyone needs the correct teachers , Divinity Himself has the responsibility to make sure knowledge and wisdom and progression will take place in society, and so He does. We should learn where . Obviously, conformity is the best course of action for the child , which brings the child other types of freedoms and learning. In bringing up a child , education and development of character are essential for the child , there is a balance to be struck between suppressing a child’s inner nature and insisting and imposing certain standards designed to bring out a child’s best nature in healthy and beneficial ways for all children.
In reality, Marx proudly sought to control people and bind them to his way of thinking , but who was his authority ? We can ask ourselves what knowledge he had ? it was frustration on his behalf . Frustration is not a good basis to understand truth neither a good place to be , especially assuming one can teach wisdom . First , put yourself in order before accepting any authority over others and learn truth before accepting a teaching role . We must examine our teachers , if we find speculative minds and cobbled up philosophies of life or within the sciences , or that such cobbling has been accepted as knowledge by them by speculative teachers , we must know . Why would we want to put our whole faith in such speculative subjectivity . We must be very, very careful and not place our absolute faith in persons who are guessing . Ask them their source of knowledge. Everything someone says and their deeds need our thoughtful consideration . It’s important in Vedic culture that the principal of knowledge decending rather than ascending be examined .What does that mean . Truth , and the truthful automatically attracts truth , that the Vedic way . Honesty is the essential characteristic of those worthy for us to hear from . Humility brings wisdom in all sorts of ways , Krishna says its the first quality of knowledge. Humility automatically attracts wisdom and truth , one can see things as they are . Conservative values stem from traditional cultures , and ultimately , from scientifically based theological cultures . Such cultures examine the objective sciences of consciousness , a conditioned consciousness covered by a material mind and a material body , and also liberated consciousness .There are also systematic progressions that take one state to the perfection, and the vedas examine them
Generally , for wisdom, people are driven by their temporary material senses and conditioned minds and are reliant on a limited faltering intelligence , a mind that is always accepting and rejecting based on personal desiring.
Like five wild horses pulling a charoit , without the driver who can give guidance and supervision , the chariot is headed for disaster. The horses are like our senses , and the reigns are our mind. The driver is like our intelligence , and the charoit is our current body . An uncontrolled mind with no intelligence drags people into many unwanted situations . Cutivating intelligence is recommended in every theological science . That helps one to be in contact with their eternal passenger , Divinity within the heart . The Supersoul in Vedic speak or the Holy Ghost , in Christian speak . Such theological intuitive inner searchings generate much needed inner inspiration , and God will guide and show truth and make it clear who are truthful . This is the clear decending process that is spoken of in the Vedas , its criticality important for us to know how truth is to become known . However , conformation is also needed from those who historically have walked on the path of truth . Divinity has pure representations, who know Him well, and they should be recognised . The Vedas indicates we should learn of truth and rely on our own sincere and true heart , the super subjective realms of Divinity work in many ways , and faith carries one a long way . A student who seeks an expert in any particular field of material knowledge gains knowledge, so to the seekers of absolute spiritual truth .
Today , globalists , politicians, and scientists control the people and attempt to present something dishonest as truth . In the name of freedoms, which are dishonest, they bind the people in temporary illusions and encourage uncontrolled hankering because it makes big profits. Their “truths ” cause miseries and frustrations along with many sufferings, including conflicts and wars . Why do they do so ? because it suits a particular economic plan that favours the exploitative businessman , and the so-called political leaders give them free reign . Economic development has superceded common sense. In reality , such blind leaders , along with their enablers, get the unthinking to vote for them. In that way, the voters follow the unintelligent and equally unthinking . Such leaders have no long-term vision , no philosophy, and no scientific thinkers. Just profit at any cost is their motto .
Consequently, the horses of everyone’s mad senses and minds are completely out of control, and the world is becoming increasingly unstable with widespread suffering, and it’s getting worse , democracies are failing because we need educated democracies.
We must seek help from the real intelligentsia and the super subjective realm and bring sanity back to our lives and everyone’s lives .
The whole of the Bhagavad Gita gives us clear indications of all these matters , and it also describes the demon like men , who should be avoided. We must accept the rational and logical part of our consciousness , and also, except God has rationale, and thus He opens up communication between Himself and His parts and parcels . Every theologically driven culture has this ability. Seek truth, and it will be found .
Knowledge, wisdom, and goodness stems from the knowledgeable, the wise , and from the ultimate good , Suddha Satva , pure goodness. The Darwinian would have us believe these qualities stem from chance neurons firing randomly in the brain . Cultures in the Vedas are decending from the good , the great and the trancendental. Divinity is full of unlimited qualities, one who associates with Him and His devotees , learns or revives, or is able to understand what was always to be , a relationship with the origins of all .How is it that the origins of all can become so personal with unlimited spirit particles , that is one quality of His unlimitedness
Amānitvam adambhitvam ahiṁsā [Bg. 13.8].
[Humility, pridelessness, nonviolence, tolerance, simplicity, approaching a bona fide spiritual master, cleanliness, steadiness and self-control; renunciation of the objects of sense gratification, absence of false ego, the perception of the evil of birth, death, old age and disease; nonattachment to children, wife, home and the rest, and evenmindedness amid pleasant and unpleasant events; constant and unalloyed devotion to Me, resorting to solitary places, detachment from the general mass of people; accepting the importance of self-realization, and philosophical search for the Absolute Truth—all these I thus declare to be knowledge, and what is contrary to these is ignorance.]
AC Bhaktivedanta Swami
“Then nonviolence. As soon as one is a realized soul, he will be nonviolent. These are the different stages of acquiring knowledge. And when one is in full knowledge of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, he becomes qualified with all the good qualities, all the good godly qualities.”
The Bhāgavata says, yasyāsti bhaktir bhagavaty akiñcanā sarvair guṇais tatra samāsate surāḥ [SB 5.18.12]
[All the demigods and their exalted qualities, such as religion, knowledge and renunciation, become manifest in the body of one who has developed unalloyed devotion for the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vāsudeva. On the other hand, a person devoid of devotional service and engaged in material activities has no good qualities. Even if he is adept at the practice of mystic yoga or the honest endeavor of maintaining his family and relatives, he must be driven by his own mental speculations and must engage in the service of the Lord’s external energy. How can there be any good qualities in such a man?]
“If one is actually in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, then all godly, good qualities will develop ”
Western strategy in Iran and Russia.. Bomb bomb bomb. .. Will Russia and Iran surrender to Western bombs …..only a fool would be convinced.. What did Churchill say when UK faced a German invasion ……We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and … Russia and Iran are proud proud conservative ancient civilizations.
Time for Pakistani mediators to speak up ……
So .what did the agreement say ? …. Obviously many points must have been discussed and agreed to in detail , some suggest that the USA had the right to navigate the southern part of the strait ….surely that was clearly hammered out in details, and why would the Iranian team agree … ..I believe Iran and Oman were working out a combined deal of levy…and it was agreed . This should have been a simple part of the deal …someone somewhere has interpretated and twisted things ….who ? I am suspicious the Pakistanis say nothing……so , speak out ..
Western warfare has come to the point , we can see this in the Nato war with Russia , the calculations have been made by Nato , Russia will never use neuclar, so we can as a combined force easily take Ukraine for the EU and expand the Nato block …..are they right ? …Will Russia hand over Ukraine to the EU and Nato and have Nato on its border with its military and its libertine political agendas prodding Russian traditions……calculations are being made by both sides .. Will will soon know …if any ultimatum is to be declared. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
The Smriti , the further elaborations of the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana , written by Srila Rupa and Ragganatha das Goswami’s , elaborations primarily of the Srimad Bhagavatam but also of other Vedic texts , are the absolute essence of the Gaudia Vaisnava teachings . These Goswami’s have been personally taught by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu , who is Krishna Himself , He appeared over five hundred years ago in West Bengal . He is none other than Lord Krishna but in the mood of Srimati Radharani , so a hidden incarnation . The 11th Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam predicts His appearance and the purposes . Gaudia Vaisnavism essentially centres around the ecstatic moods of Srimati Radharani within Vrndavana , but also extends out to Her expansion as Satyabhama in Dwarka , this has been revealed by Srila Rupa Goswami in one of his writings called the Lalita Madhava drama . Srimati Radharani is the Queen of Vrndavana and exhibits the highest feelings of love of God . She is the supreme Nayika “heroine “, and Krishna is the supreme Nayaka” hero ” . Also, the Goswami’s have elaborated on the whole of the village life of Vrndavana , all its residents , and their activities and differing moods of devotion towards Krishna. Detailed account has been written ,the direct following of the Goswami’s have also expanded the works of the Goswami’s , we must know the Goswami’s have decended with Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu from Goloka Vrndavana and have ” painted ” a trancendental picture of the spiritual kingdoms , they reside there and witness it eternally . The Goswami’s and Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu also accepted and glorified other Vaisnava writers who wrote previously to their appearance, such as Srila Jayadeva Goswami , Srila Bilvamangala Thakur and Candi das .
Jayadeva Goswami: Lived roughly 300 years before Sri Caitanya, composing the famous Sanskrit lyrical poem Gita Govinda.
Bilvamangala Thakur: Authored Krishna-karnamrita, a deeply emotional Sanskrit work on Krishna’s childhood pastimes.
Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu: Deeply relished and popularized the preexisting writings of these great predecessors during His manifest time on Earth.
The Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas and devotees in general become , by hearing about the spiritual activities of Vrndavana , particularly attracted to their different aspects of the eternal pastimes , and even more so to the different residents of Vrndavana . In that way they become trancendentally absorbed and enter into and feel the moods of these Nitya siddha eternal residents , who live in this eternal and super subjective spiritual realm , wherein blissful , beautiful relationships embellished with pure love and attraction for Lord Krishna in so many many ways are exhibited .
This is what happens when the intelligentsia are silenced and when the unthinking run world affairs.
From United Kingdom…
“The report also found more children are stumbling across pornography accidentally, with some of the 16 to 21-year-olds surveyed saying they had viewed it “aged six or younger”.
More than half of respondents to the survey had viewed strangulation as children, prompting Dame Rachel to also ask the government to ban depictions of it.
Pornography depicting rape of a sleeping person was also seen by 44% of respondents as children.
The data was gathered prior to the amendments to the Online Safety Act in July, which brought in age verification tools for pornography.
Dame Rachel described the findings as “rock bottom”.
“This tells us how much of the problem is about the design of platforms, algorithms and recommendation systems that put harmful content in front of children who never sought it out,” the commissioner said, calling for the report to act as a “line in the sand”.
The Department of Science, Innovation and Technology told the BBC “children have been left to grow up in a lawless online world for too long” and “the Online Safety Act is changing that.”….
End of the report..
The Vedic view ….
This is what happens when the intelligentsia are silenced, and when the political administrative classes are the paid servants of the ruthless unthinking businessmen , who virtually and unfortunately rule the world directly and indirectly . Political parties are funded by those who insist on lobbying powers , this is nonsense democracy.
In-depth knowledge of social sciences , minds , psychological affairs , and the needs of the different members of societies and the sciences of consciousness are some of the responsibilities of an intelligensia . It’s their skill set instinctively . Society should never be directed by foolish persons who are clueless and unfamiliar with these essentials . Scientific materialism and atheistic Darwinian hypothesis have provided false evidence and have , for many , many years, sent societies in every kind of direction apart from the essential ones . Every theological culture must have a thorough and scientific approach to the material and spiritual realms , there is a connection between the two are it is designed that way .
We know Albert Einstein said, “Science without religion is lame and religion without science is blind “
We have to realise why this was said , many people try to interpret his words , but without knowledge of dualism, they remain clueless of his real meaning.
Liberalism by the unthinking religion by the unthinking
Money, money , and money are brighter than sunshine sweeter than honey . The mantra of the global capital liberalists. Get money, whatever it takes ,and wherever you can get it , profits at any costs , including the lives of people , or if it means destroying their cultures or traditions , we don’t care . If necessary , instigate revolution in their systems of government and spread propaganda , if it means our profits and influence can increase , and our monopolies thrive . What we see is a global den of eniquity . The libertine global conglomerates with their puppy political classes , they just dont care who they hurt or what they destroy. They have no brain substance to care . Markets of immorality of all kinds , the favourite of Mr Musk and the like . Unrestricted sense pleasures , a fully sexualised society for profits to die for , literally . This type of consciousness , led by the unthinking and unintelligent businessmen and their paid puppies called political leaders are increasing more and more , encouraging the lower animal propensities of the supposed humans .The Darwinian world , the world of scientific materialism, is fueling the drive for ever new sensual pleasures in the material world . Capitalism thrives on all sorts of addictions , the biggest pull is sex . It’s the most addictive and theological culture knows how it is to be regulated and understood. If not, it ruins family lives ,lives in general , degrades long-established cultures, and degrades a supposed civilised society. Sophisticated animals at most can describe those who have lost touch with their consciousness and are overly plugged into the gross body and who chase the mind anywhere it wants to go , a civilisation of hogs, dogs, camels and asses .
However , in realistic theological terms, there must be a balanced approach . In todays world, we will find, for instance, extreme versions of religions and speculative interpretations of scripts that are not sensible or credible . They are often tainted with suppression, dogma, and misunderstanding of various kinds of human psychological conditions . One can not suppress a population artificially, but rather one should introduce practical regulations and restrictions for the systematic progression of happy educational cultures . That’s the Vedic approach . Currently, in some parts of the Islamic world , women are said to be forced to cover their heads and faces . The idea was to protect men , the ladies are the most alluring substance on earth . However, men should learn of higher consciousness and cultivate knowledge, thus learning the glories of the inner self .The ladies and men should help each other and protect each other , that’s the culture . Suppressed female society’s can be unnecessarily harrased and not given the opportunities they seek . On the other hand, in the super liberal west , extreme liberalism leads to school girls’ dresses being so short that they may just as well go to school in their underwear. It also has led in the UK and the West to abortions in increasing numbers, and the new law indicates no time limits on when the child can be killed in the womb . One MP is quite happy for a 37 week old child to be killed , this type of liberalism is leading to a mental health epidemic. This extremely sexualised society with unthinking businessmen making up rules is absolutely unacceptable .The intelligentsia must take control. The political classes are not able to organise governance without a credible intelligentsia. The politicians are rather also contaminated themselves with the same decease, and they are currently controlled and infiltrated by ruthless money men . Brainwashed populations are easily manipulated by social media and mainstream media , so easy picking . Many people are still sane and decent , there is a kick back going on to the super liberalism on display. The problem is that money men are absolutely ruthless . The government must take the side of the learned , ethical, and moral intelligentsia.
The middle way is the Vedic way .
Preservation of culture, family values, and traditions are essential and balanced educations , alongside theologically driven cultures and sciences of all kinds . Philosophically driven cultures with a scientific understanding of dualism , means , mind , matter, and consciousness as seperated energies , its this that makes up reality, this widom is key to good governance
Krishna consciousness means thinking, feeling , willing, and planning to please Krishna and His devotees.
We think about so many things and people within world events , persons, who do not even know of our existence , but we should know Krishna knows of our existence intimately . He is right there with us in our lives . If someone is so familiar with us, it behoves us to find out about them and think about them , and ultimately befriend them . The culminating verses of Krishna’s Bhagavad Gita is when Krishna says, “Think of Me become my devotee, my friend , my family member , my servant , or my lover .
Whatever state of mind one acquires next life, one will find the appropriate destination.
Feelings and desires get caught up and are reactionary , so yoga men’s to acquire a healthy state of feeling and desiring , the psychological aspects of the human state are clearly defined in Bhagavad Gita as it is ,Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami has explained all .
Re feeling desire ..
“Feelings are reactive experiences that reflect how you are impacted by the world (e.g., feeling sad about a loss). Desires are active forces that push you to change the world to suit your goals (e.g., the urge to eat , sleep and sex )
While feelings inform you about your current state, desires motivate your future actions. This key distinction highlights how they function: , its important to understand and regulate and purify the mind and desire , the pure devotees are very expert at ignoring the conditioned karmic mind , they leave it behind by yoga practices.
Feelings (Emotions)
Definition: Somatic or mental responses to an experience, situation, or thought.
Direction of Fit: Mind-to-World. Your feelings adjust to match reality as it is. But what is realistic, Bhagavad Gita teaches as the realities of living in the material world, the spiritual beings do not belong in the material worlds and they should become detached by cultivation of knowledge about who they are , and what the world is , both scientifically, philosophically and spiritually.
Characteristics: They are reactive, often arising automatically or uncontrollably based on stimuli….Thus act , think, and feel with knowledge
Desires (Wants)
Definition: Urges, cravings, or drives pushing you to attain or experience something.desire is good , but learn what to desire , and that’s in a best interest, bearing in mind we are spirits in a material world.
Direction of Fit: World-to-Mind. Your desires aim to alter reality so that it aligns with what you want , this can be good or very bad depending on our purity of consciousness and our sensitivity to other , the self-evident truth of all beings as our ultimate family is important no one should come to harm , we must be a well wisher .
Characteristics: They are active and impel you to do something in the external world , sometimes against our will . In anger, a man can suddenly kill his whole family or even drop a neuclar bomb .
Function: To motivate and direct your behavior , and key to achieving perfection in life is to regulate the mind and senses by Yoga or prayer or linking with Divinity.
How They Interact
Feelings and desires frequently influence one another, and philosophers like those detailed on Psychology Today note they often form a feedback loop. For instance, a feeling of sadness might spark a desire for comfort, or the unfulfilled desire to achieve a goal can lead to feelings of frustration. It’s a dangerous world, and the current world where libertine cultures are favourite make the loop backs increasingly more turbulent and troubling.
The Vedic culture brings us balance and positive thinking along with healthy regulations, which controls the mind and senses . These are the regulative principles of freedom .
The blogsite, the Vedic spectator, summarises the teachings of the Vedas, including the Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita . The Vedic spectator seeks to bring to the attention of modernity how the sciences , philosophy , social sciences , and political sciences within the Vedas originate from a timeless culture and are as applicable today as much as any time periods within numerous cyclic universal expansions . The Vedas are the breathing of Lord Visnu and are ” masterminded ” by Him . They are so designed as to eternally bring numerous benefits to mankind . These universal teachings , having once been throughly understood , can be practically applied by those who are clearly realising their self-evident truths , truths that are applicable, and related to scientific dualism . This means that the consciousness alone and matter , in the form of atoms , elements, and compounds , as well as ethereal subtle matter , are both two entirely and clearly distinct energies. The importance of grasping scientific dualism is essential because the fundamentals of every one of the sciences are reshaped and redirected . Social and spiritual mobility gathers pace , and the equality of all beings before their originator begins to be widely accepted. A much simpler and peaceful lifestyle becomes favoured , the full potential of an inner consciousness is discovered and brought to the forefront.
The Vedic Spectator acts as a philosophical and spiritual bridge, aligning ancient Vedic literature with modern realities. It presents the Vedas, Srimad Bhagavatam, and Bhagavad Gita not merely as religious texts, but as comprehensive blueprints for applying consciousness to science, sociology, and political philosophy in the contemporary world The site advocates for an elevated societal model based on these ancient texts through several key frameworks :Bridging Science and Theology: It explores how theological sciences, cosmology, and the understanding of the Mahat-tattva (the total material energy) interact with responsive karmic and universal laws. Societal & Spiritual Mobility: The platform highlights the value of the Sattvic lifestyle—living in the mode of goodness, which brings mental stability, clarity, and higher spiritual evolution Political Philosophy: It critiques modern globalized, hyper-materialistic systems in favor of decentralized, traditional nation-states and culturally grounded communities. Inner Consciousness: It emphasizes that cultivating one’s inner potential through spiritual discipline is the primary pathway to achieving a peaceful, simplified life. Such a life reveals the truth of the existence of the trancendental Lord Krishna and His trancendental abode, which is full of spiritual varigatedness and, most importantly is also the permanent abode of His innumerable family, friends, servants and lovers , lovers who are many and who are headed by the Supreme Goddess of fortune Srimati Radharani.
The Smriti , the further elaborations of the six Goswami’s of Vrndavana , written by Srila Rupa and Ragganatha das Goswami’s , elaborations primarily of the Srimad Bhagavatam but also of other Vedic texts , are the absolute essence of the Gaudia Vaisnava teachings .

Also, the Goswami’s have elaborated on the whole of the village life of Vrndavana , all its residents , and their activities and differing moods of devotion towards Krishna. Detailed account has been written ,the direct following of the Goswami’s have also expanded the works of the Goswami’s , we must know the Goswami’s have decended with Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu from Goloka Vrndavana and have ” painted ” a trancendental picture of the spiritual kingdoms , they reside there and witness it eternally. The Goswami’s and Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu also accepted and glorified other Vaisnava writers who wrote previously to their appearance, such as Srila Jayadeva Goswami , Srila Bilvamangala Thakur and Candidas .
Jayadeva Goswami: Lived roughly 300 years before Sri Caitanya, composing the famous Sanskrit lyrical poem Gita Govinda.
Bilvamangala Thakur: Authored Krishna-karnamrita, a deeply emotional Sanskrit work on Krishna’s childhood pastimes.
Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu: Deeply relished and popularized the preexisting writings of these great predecessors during His manifest time on Earth.
The Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas and devotees in general become , by hearing about the spiritual activities of Vrndavana , particularly attracted to their different aspects of the eternal pastimes , and even more so to the different residents of Vrndavana . In that way they become trancendentally absorbed and enter into and feel the moods of these Nitya siddha eternal residents , who live in this eternal and super subjective spiritual realm , wherein blissful , beautiful relationships embellished with pure love and attraction for Lord Krishna in so many many ways are exhibited .
