  • Possibilities and trancendental Possibilities..

    Feb 19th, 2025

    Finely tuned , to say the least.

    When Sir Fred Hoyle said that the universe is too finely tuned to be a cataclysmic chance event . The atoms , elements , compounds, and molecular structures require exact combinations of protons in the atomic structures , which cause and set the various elements for the construction of the universe . Earth , for instance , for  the structures for lifeforms requires a great deal of carbon , and  Sir Fred thought  it a mystery that this all important element should be ” by chance ” in place  in such huge quantities.  “Someone has monkeyed with our universe,” he famously said, so the right and perfect balance of elements came to be  in place to support life , it’s all just too perfect “

    Actually , in Vedic terms , the universe is finely tuned beyond any Western scientists’ comprehension .  Never mind the physical universe , which includes our bodies and, of course , our minds , a mind which incidentally ,  it should be noted that the scientific community is absolutely clueless about .

    The Vedas clearly explains that our next body is already beginning to form ,  from the subtle ethereal electricity of our minds desires and  activities . The  universal energies are , according to Vedic Scientific studies , that also  parallel , quantum physics , that’s akin to  the work of Bohr and Schrödinger , ie . the  conclusions  of the Copenhagen agreement . Both the Vedas and Bohr  indicate the universe is responsive. The Vedas explains this , material actions subtle and gross or of  a spiritually conscious nature , as in the case of a Krishna conscious  person ,  who due to  the  practice of  hearing about Krishna , Radharani and the spiritual world , completely changes  destinies, and enters  a spiritual abode . Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Maharaja , a famous Vedic scholar, who  speaks of the  mentally conceived spiritual body . This can be obtained through the purification of the Holy names , as given by Mahaprabhu , alongside with deep remberance of Krishna and His family,  and an even deeper meditation based on the revelations of a spiritual world , revealed by the works of our acaryas .  Rupa , Ragganath , Jayadeva Goswami,  Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur,  to name but a few .

    In fact, Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur further says we have two bodies,  the one we are  currently in and the one that is forming , either spiritual or a  material body . So  universal and spiritual affairs are developed by reponsive automated methods  with its  many  possibilities that  are automatically tuned to consciousness develop , all this is  beyond our  comprehension . Perhaps our modern AI technology might hint at instant response systems . Your phone immediately understands your wants and desires,  with its built-in algorithms at  work .So, the trancendental algorithms and the super subjective algorithms of the spiritual universal order can be logged into .

    Niels Bohr , Schrödinger ,Teller or  Feynman, and Einstein would  probably not deny these types  of information exchanges and the reformation of the material and spiritual energy.

  • Prabhupada.

    Feb 18th, 2025

    It’s you who wondered the earth

    It’s you who set us free

    How great thou art

    Bestowing eternality 

    It’s you that paid the price 

    To loosen us from chains 

    That kept us in a morbid plight  Our senses would  not restrain

    It’s you that whipped our minds

    It’s you that made us good

    All your toil and troubles

    Need to be understood

    It’s you that gave us hope

    It’s you that gave us joy

    It’s you that wrote those books

    For our intelligence to employ

    It’s you that left a society

    Full of Happy blissful souls

    It’s you and your expectations

    That make broken persons whole .

  • Using what’s required at a time it’s needed ..

    Feb 18th, 2025

    Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja used the British and their empire in such ways so as to assist them in reestablishing Vedic cultures and educating the masses in systematic ways , within India .This was  the beginnings of their greater mission, which was to one day spread Vedic cultures and particularly the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and bring its influences worldwide . Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, in a future time, would  step off a ship at Boston Harbour USA and begin the International Society for Krishna consciousness.

    Ironically, the two great acaryas used the British , as well as appreciating some of the new methods of educational pursuits they had established in India,  that included economics , science, literature, sociology , the arts etc etc . In the transcendental vision of these acaryas, nothing was to be left off the table when it came to spreading Krishna consciousness.  The British had no idea that in future times, the Acaryas,  using  education and Vedic cultures, would turn the tables on Western cultures by establishing within Western societies temples and centres  and  bring new hopes to peoples and their societies at large . In 2025 , those hopes and new visions  for peace and prosperity for countries worldwide inspired by a  more  simple type of  living and higher thinking are ever more needed , as leaders all over the world fail their people.

    There were  many ways these  two great acaryas were cooperative with the British , and due to this cooperative spirit,  the British allowed a post office to be established in Mayapur,  dispite it being a remote region of Bengal . The post office meant the Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja could post off and receive information that greatly assisted him in establishing 64 centres of Krishna consciousness all over India.

    HH Bhakti Vikas Swami has recently  on the appearance day 2025 of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati,  given some interesting talks on these and other matters ,  which is well worth a listen on YouTube. Those talks also highlight the ontology and morphology of a spiritual movement , both necessary for greater preaching , but the cor ontology is the most important out of the two .

  • No more birth and death

    Feb 18th, 2025

    The Vedas, as well as a number of modern-day physicists, indicate that the Comos and our consciousness are two entirely separate energies . Furthermore, the science of how consciousness becomes interactive with the physical and subtle energies that are built on ,  according to the Vedas ,  a framework of devolved higher grade light called the Bramajyoti  is indicated in the third Canto of the SrimadBhagavatam , this parallels  to a degree the Copenhagen agreement in modern day quantum physics . A responsive universe with many possibilities is indicated,  and that reflects the free will. These possibilities and resultant actions are described in Sanskrit as Aprarabdha and Prarabdha karmas . Namely, our  impressions and entanglements left over from our previous entanglements and possibilities, and that makes up our psyche and the karmic synchronicities that go with it . It’s said some immediately ,  some soon and some in the distant future. Einstein spoke of space time continuum , what I have laid out is just that .
    All reactionary forces of karmic synchronicities can be  cleansed or changed by religious or other types of pious activities . In the case of complete surrender to Divinity with love and in pure devotion , everything is wiped clean, and the next  death will be the last …

  • Sophisticated animals or true mankind.

    Feb 17th, 2025

    The sophisticated animal , either individually or communally , spends his time uselessly battling for recourse with exploitation of environments and of others around him upmost in his mind , causing death and destruction in his path , both politically , economically and in a personal way to his victims , who ever they may be . He enacts his “Darwinian ” vision for the survival of the fittest , the fittest individual , community or nation .
    The Vedic cultures totally condemnes such animalistic consciousness , it rather promotes the equality of all beings and encourages and educates them all to understand the human condition , making sure the needs are met of everyone , and in truth , that means a body , a mind and a soul
    Thus consciousness development and knowledge of the truth of the environments consciousness finds itself in is the prime objective of Vedic Cultures .

  • Cows and saints ..

    Feb 16th, 2025

    Krishna loves and favours the cows and the Brahminical persons . Why ?
    Many reasons ,
    Certainly the cows and Brahminical persons are seen to be benevolent,  peaceful, tolerant , and always full of abundance in this sense , in the case of the Brahminical order , they are overflowing with good wishes , and the best of knowledge is distributed  freely by them  to one and all , at all  times  , indeed they are well wishers of  all of  humanity and every living beings . They fully understand the consciousness condition and why  it is certain types of consciousness arise, which can be both harmful or beneficial .

    In the case of the cow , they show the example to humanity ,   giving off a peaceful healing aura , indeed, persons with mental vulnerabilities can be  greatly benefited in their association . In fact, cow hugging has become a useful addition to various therapies. This feeling of  deep peacefulness  the cows  exudes and the example the cows show in  submissive service to anyone , along with  living peacefully  just by eating grass that nature provides , generates their  wonderfully gentle persona , undisturbed , easily approachable . They produce excess milk and are easily milked undisturbed .  The benefits of milk to the consciousness are spoken of in the Vedas , milk  helps  consciousness  and finer brain tissues are said to develop by regularly drinking it ,  particularly useful for the sensitivity of  spiritual awareness . We can note there are  benefits of being in the association of highly qualified persons , who give off positive good energies ,  cows also possess these special benedictory qualities that are very beneficial to us humans . Krishna has made such arrangements , by His grace , He  speaks in the Bhagavad Gita about different types of consciousness , and it appears Krishna has specifically blessed the Brahminical persons and the cows so they can bless us .
    It’s also mentioned in the Vedas that killing both Brahminical persons or cows is the most heinous and sinful act .
    To kill a giving merciful person is indeed demoniac .

  • Leaders, what leaders …

    Feb 16th, 2025

    There are 120 armed conflicts in the world right now , in each of which human rights are increasingly ignored , thus, world leaders are failing , United Nations are failing , democracies are failing . The Vedic culture with its emphasis and directions for systematic development of the varieties of persons within each community directed and led by the real Intelligentsia , as defined in the Vedas , is the way for understanding and peace . Proffesional politicians or global businesses persons are not qualified leaders , they have no real sense of how communities can thrive on all levels , socially , economically, scientifically, and definitely not philosophically. Citizens are looking for real leaders with the required qualities . The Vedic cultures based on consciousness development and satisfying rewarding lives , not solely based just on money and possessions, are the way to pursue world peace and cooperation between all individual nations and their citizens .

    It’s crystal clear that the very broad Vedas incorporates all forms of religious philosophies and practice, according to where one is situated in particular states of consciousness one should take up some form of practice, one should never impose one form of religious practice on others or think them superior, its a question of relative truth and how all relative truths are in the absolute truth
    Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur explains these things in his Jiva Dharma.
    Real knowledge means being non sectarian , understanding and having a broad vision and long-term vision, but also understanding progressive paths

  • Guru alignment.

    Feb 16th, 2025

    In Vedic Culures, many different types of Gurus are available,  but in absolute truth, all Gurus are  aligning , be they expert in  geopolitical matters ,  or within economics , or social sciences , or within general sciences , or sociopolitical affairs , its very clear in the Vedas every thing is connected to Divinity.  Nothing is outside , but the 18 puranas tell us some people are predominantly in goodness,  some passion and some ignorant and the therapeutic Vedas along with its expert teachers know how applications work to benefit one and all .

    Vedic culture always means having specific teachers, or one could say different types of Gurus, defined loosely as Diksa and Siksa Gurus for spiritual realisation development, the most essential knowledge . But also you may consult other Brahminical persons or learned Vipras , or genuinely learned , wise , balanced, and mature scholars in various fields , but who are always independent.
    You could have specific scientific Gurus.
    You could have specific geopolitical Gurus.
    Or Gurus, who have mastered various arts or aspects of philosophies of all kinds, for instance .
    Thus the word guru was used very broadly in Vedic Culures and each guru had different purposes, but because absolute truth can be applied and understood in multitudes of ways , you will find alignment as well as diversity in all the Gurus.

    A hugely beneficial educational system , a decending process of generosity directed by those who are situated in pure goodness .

    Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu in His conversation with Ramananda Roy , approved of everything Ramananda Roy said , but whatever he said Mahāprabhu said ” Very good , but is there something more “
    Thus, the all-encompassing Vedas was discussed .

  • Veda knowledge .

    Feb 15th, 2025

    Veda means knowledge….

    Sankya yoga is defined as the  perfect process of knowing.

    The systematic progressive path of the Vedas  incorporating… karma yoga , jnana yoga , niskarma karma yoga , astanga yoga, and Bhakti yoga,  the yoga of devotion . All varieties  of yoga , when tinged with Bhakti , advance persons to the highest form of yoga, which is defined in the Vedas as pure Bhakti yoga .

    Bhakti yoga is always a progressive path , there is no limit to love , and Srila Rupa Goswami has made a complete analysis of its progression.

    The vedas supplementary litratures assist all the yogic paths ,  the jnana path ,the  karma path, and the various other  trancendental paths are all nicely defined.

    The Sruti are like the direct commands of God  , the Smriti are like a family members commands  , Puranas are like friends commands ,and the Tantra are like business deals , where benefits are on offer .

    The Srimad Bhagavatam contains all these paths and  their different and varying epistemological calculations,  along with the etymology of the specific Vedic and  Vaisnava teachers are highlighted . How they translate and find specified meanings of  sanskrit in particular ways to describe their relationships with Krishna and the relationships of others to Krishna  will also be found in the various commentary of the different acaryas .

    The Vedas , on another administrative level , is a living, breathing personality ,  every deed on the ethereal or gross classical plain is calculated by various agencies and the responsive universal order , like a giant automated ” A I ” system , it responds,  such is the inconceivable engineering of Divinity .

    We know that inside one of our  cells are hundreds of nano machines, each playing an essential role for continuous cell representation,  all of which are  self-replicating systems. From Macro to micro, everything is happening by the supream desire of Krishna. This consciousness is Krishna consciousness , the founder of ISKCON AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada said.

  • Consciousness and the genome

    Feb 15th, 2025

    Consciousness causing  genes or genes causing consciousness .

    The Darwinians suppose that your genes cause the particular consciousness that you exhibit , and to an extent that can be accepted due to being given a body by a prescriptive method. However, that tells but a partial story , the journey of how we come to  accept  a particular body can be long and complex, and our past , present, and futures are involved . The conscious being is always accompanied by one of the unlimited expansions of Divinity , the highly complex  “self selection process ” along with incalculable informational exchanges provides the guidance mechanism towards particular types of genes that programme the ACTG to form a particular body . In Bhagavad Gita Krishna indicates in many verses he is the knower of all bodies and he knows the ” field ” of activities that the body will experience. Although independent of parents on one level , on the subtle  level ,  the Vedas say  , the living beings in human form share percentages of the subtle energies of our parents . The energy of mind and consciousness has not  been addressed  by the mechanistic Darwinians , who seem to conveniently ignore such matters , assuming neurons by chance cause complex consciousness conditioning as well as incredibly creative forces within some persons intelligence .The Vedas as other cultures indicate consciousness and matter as two entirely separate energies . So we are dealing with developing bodies as well  as  minds ,with awarded intellectual power .

    According to the Vedas,  nothing is happening by chance events,  but rather by design,  Bhagavad Gita tells us we have to take responsibility for our designated lot .

    Although on one level everyone is equal, as the founding fathers of the USA quite rightly cast into the USA constitution, in other ways  there are obviously massive variations . Within the material bodies , minds  and intellects, and  the circumstances one is  born into , everything and every one are  totally unique. The encouraging aspect to Vedic cultures is that we are all  dynamic in so many ways  and are  never static or fixed . We should never feel conditioned or stuck . Rather always moving,  in one direction or another .  So social mobility and progress are  always waiting to be tapped into by anybody . No one should ever feel trapped in particular bodies  or  minds . As the old song goes ” if you wish upon a star makes no difference who you are” that’s a very Vedic concept , sung by Judy Garland

    So, by karmic synchronicities, one aquires a particular body and particular circumstances . It’s a temporary fleeting turn of events . The idea is to solve the real problem . Birth , death , old age , and disease , and not to get overly attached to happiness or distress of this one life , which come and go like the winter and summer seasons.

    Making advances toward  knowledge , solving  once and for all  the real problems of life , instead of solely  spending ones time building  up kingdoms that  will  inevitably collapse, is  encouraged in Vedic culture .  Neglecting to ask where we came from and where  we  are going and surrendering our intelligence to the speculative Darwinian is not really very intelligent.
