The above is a complex mix and ultimately beyond the  comprehension of the human brain. Nevertheless, the Vedas give information as to how these different energies and types of consciousness are combined and working under the supervision of Divine Sakti , or energies.

It’s notable,  that throughout the history of universal affairs,  a struggle between the Divine and Demoniac is recorded.

When the founder of ISKCON met his spiritual master Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja,  the British had control of India,  and AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada,  asked the question to Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati , who will take you seriously  , the British have stolen India,  it is a priority to deal with that first , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati  said Mahaprabhu movement waits for nothing and is the real priority.

Jesus Christ preached in political times , with the Romans having usurped the middle east , Mahaprabhu preached in political times when the Mogal empire had snatched India .

Srila Ragganathha das Goswami in his Manah Siksa tells of the anartha of too much absorption in political matter , he calls it prostitution.

So, although Krishna Himself on the battlefield of Kuruksetra , demonstrated perfection in political manoeuvre and establishing justice systems,  and its no doubt an essential element of the Vedas,  more important for the individual is his own trancendental revival of God consciousness,  and from that positive position , the best influences can be administered to the world.

Everything is happening by the Supreme desire of Krishna,  this consciousness is Krishna consciousness,  Prabhupada said .

So some jivas really go for dominance , it appears , others are in a semi dominance position, and others have done with dominance and want out of the material matrix , and the modes of nature are assisting with the psychology that’s required for the task , and the karmic synchronicity of countless trillions of lives , goes on , not by chance , but by design.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has come to offer exceptional benedictions to even those who, really,  in Vedic terms , should not be able to receive them , because Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita,  only those who have done previous good ” Vedic works ” and have the karma Sukriti ,or jnana sukriti can advance in spiritual understanding.

But no ….Mahaprabhu has by-passed everything of the ” norms ” and is magnanimously  awarding Bhakti sukriti , and in   levels never seen before , which Mahaprabhu , also attempts to taste,  but actually,  Radharani brilliant ecstatic love , keeps on increasing,  its difficult to catch and understand , even for Krishna , such is the unpredictability of love .

So , along with Srimati Radharani’s love is Her confidential associates  love ,  the Manjaris , Mahaprabhu through the Goswamis of Vrndavana, are giving access to these secrets of all secrets . If you have no karma Sukriti or Jnana Sukriti,  fall at the feet of Krishna’s pure devotees who are freely distributing Bhakti Sukriti,  and taking no previous qualifications into account, its for  one and all , no matter the previous life and activities. Truely Mercy above justice.

Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur instructs the devotees to increase their meditations.  Thus an element of astanga yoga is included in Bhakti yoga , as confirmed in Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur’s Bhagavad Gita commentaries.

If you have forgotten your original purposes or your family connections from time immemorial, obviously, some rehabilitation and a revival of a normal state will be necessary.

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur in his Jiva Dharma,  speaks of the conditions of water .

In its original state, water is a liquidity state , but due to excessive heat or excessive cold , its origins state undergoes an imposed state , ice, or steam .

The original state is described in Bhagavad Gita,  one is an eternal blissful associate of God , and being so , one naturally has an attraction for the all attractive one .

Jiva Goswami speaks of the impossible becoming possible,  in the sense of Divinity expanding Himself and becoming many , one and difference simultaneously   is the particles condition.

Also, the free will of the individual is let loose , naturally, it’s exhibited in different ways . Love is spontaneous and never static , nothing is static in relationships,  and certainly not in a spiritual realm . That Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has come to distribute something that has never been distributed before,  the ecstatic and every increasing love of Srimati Radharani is mysterious.

And those receiving it , or attracted to it , are certainly extremely fortunate,  Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur gives the example of loggers in the forest , floating logs down a river to the saw mill , by chance a log is thrown up on the bank of the river .

So by association, one changes or increases an attraction towards Divinity , there are examples in the Bhagavatam,  of the wives of the Brahmanas association with Radharani and the Gopies , and Mahaprabhu through the teachings of the Goswamis,  in their writings have  delineated the whole mysterious process of Sadhana and Ragganuga practice,  note the word practice,  a practice,  a development of something,  in one sence a revival , in one sense,  something ever new , never before experienced.

Within the material worlds are the borrowed plumes of beauty,  beauty is all around us in many forms from a beautiful young lady to the beauty of nature displayed in millions of ways. This beauty seems eternal,  because there is always something or somebody exhibiting it , the reality is  beauty is a temporary borrowed plume , and in a relatively short time it fades and is replaced by old age and deteriation .

These borrowed plumes originally have a source in the super subjective higher spiritual planes , where unlimited and every increasing  states of consciousness and beauty are exhibited, in the absence of atoms ,elements and compounds,  which is the artificial glove placed over ones original intended form and existence.  In the absence of such  atoms,  compounds and elements that are ever changing,  the conjugal mellows of attractions in a spiritual realm  are unlimited affairs ,  such are the activities of the Supreme Goddess of fortune,  the spiritual emotions are as such that even when hearing the voice of a beloved , overwhelming ripples of ecstacy ripple throughout a spiritual body , our materially conditioned senses are an extremely pale reflection of the original pure  unrestricted senses . Intelligent philosophical persons should set their sights on something far higher than temporary atoms , elements, and compounds that are beset with the influences of deteriation and time and disappointment.

Within the inconceivable power of the Sun ,  are practically uncountable photons,  particles of  light,  light , is not made of atoms, everything else in our material universe is .

According to the Vedas, the Sun is devolved from the original spiritual light called the brahman effulgence . Light is never destroyed,  but can be  oborbed , if not obsorbed.  the light particals will  it carry on existing,  within the  universal time .

In the same way within the unlimited Divinity are the  unlimited limited , Caitanya Mahāprabhu has revealed to  the  world the truth of the simultaneously one and difference  of the individual living beings ,who are expanded for  His pleasure  from Divinity. The unlimited expands Himself into the unlimited limited , one plus one equals  one , one minus one equals one equals one in an absolute realm . Srila Jiva Goswami, in his Tattva Sandarbha, says that Divinity makes the impossible possible.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu has given us this understanding of the inconceivable and simultaneous one and difference.   in His explanation of the origins of the soul , the eternal comes from the eternal and there is no limit to the eternal’s , in that way it can be understood that there has never been a time when we or God did not exist, some souls are manifestly active , some dormant .

It is concluded by great Vaisnava philosophically minded thinkers , an over emphasise on the oneness,  or an over emphasise on the difference are both unsound philosophical positions , the real truth about God and the souls or particles of consciousness are revealed by Mahāprabhu and explained bh Srila Jiva Goswami .

Tosca Puccini 

Through the expressive power of music, opera conveys the deepest and most complex human emotions. It allows us to enter the psyche of characters and experience the drama on a gut level. Opera, with its far flung story lines and sung libretto, can’t be approached literally, as if you’re watching a movie or a play. It has to be experienced as metaphor…a story unfolding through music.

I lived for art 

I lived for art, I lived for love,
I never harmed a living soul!
With a discreet hand
I relieved all misfortunes I encountered.
Always with sincere faith
my prayer
rose to the holy tabernacles.
Always with sincere faith
I decorated the altars with flowers.
In this hour of grief,
why, why, Lord,
why do you reward me this way 
I donated jewels to the Madonna’s mantle,
and offered songs to the stars and heaven,
which thus shone with more beauty.
In this hour of grief,
why, why, Lord,
ah, why do you reward me this way .

In the Vedas , Srimad Bhagavatam, and Bhagavad Gita, unalloyed devotion is described .  Giving oneself fully to Divinity without any expectations,  and if any difficulties  are experienced , they are tolerated and one calculates,  in the words of Srila Sridhar Swami,  Prabhupada’s Godbrother, “I take the whole thing on my head , it is my doing and deserve ” 

Devotional service is not a business transaction. 

That  is the consciousness of the pure practitioners , we must strive for that , be patient and regularly apply ourselves , causeless mercy is just that causeless , same time Krishna says one who wants to know Me and sincerely takes shelter in the proccesses I outline , I will give the intelligence and inspiration to come to Me . Its a decending process , not an academic ascending one .

In the Gaudia Vaisnava school , and particularly the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu,  which Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja brought to the Western world in his establishment of the teachings of the Acaryas from the four sampradayas Madhva ,Ramanuja ,Visnu Swami and Nimbarka,  Srila Bhaktisiddanta takes us on the journey of understanding how we are not to think in terms of , not too much oneness , or too much difference with Krishna.

The Advaitans and the Dvaitans have an unbalanced approach to Tattva. That the one became many to expand His pleasure , but at the same time the particles have always been needs application of thought,  and simultaneously one and difference of Mahaprabhu is the key to understanding.

The fragmental parts of Krishna emnate from Krsna, or Balarama,  thus the fragments come from the whole , the whole has always been,  the dormant jivas expand as Krsna expands His pleasure,  dormant means always been , thus the Dvaitans , who overly state their case of being forever totally separated,  or the Advaitans overly stating the oneness are both unbalanced.

Mahaprabhu simultaneously one and difference is the correct way of thinking , and the oneness constantly reacting with the difference in expanding Love is indicated . The Dvaitans will be too fixed and not have the concept of nothing is static in love , as the difference intimately units with the oneness,  in its extreme technically termed Pranaya, or tad bhavika , which Mahaprabhu has brought to the world and which is being distributed,  and thus the oneness is increasing His effect on the difference,  nothing is static in love , overly stating difference stifles the flow of love

O best among the twice-born, it is therefore concluded that the highest perfection one can achieve by discharging the duties prescribed for one’s own occupation according to caste divisions and orders of life is to please the Personality of Godhead…

Krishna is suggesting many things , one executes duties allotted by nature , in ways  recommended by those who represent our best interests , namely the intelligentsia,  who know the science of body , mind, and consciousness.  The goal of Vedic life is consciousness development, a progressive educational life , which differ according to station , but the same goal for everyone is to  advance one’s consciousness towards Divinity and live  comfortably.

It is indicated in the Vedas that one should help everyone to progress materially and spiritually through family,  community, and a nation  . Everything was based locally and nationally  in support of each others development. The bee hive is a good example of community living .

In Vedic Culture, all  financial resources were invested in only the national interests , so naturally, a country developed all its citizens , it was  the  main responsibility of the head of state .

Currently, we find ourselves in complex global relationships with untraceable  macro economics at work ,  distant global companies interacting in local communities,   but communities they know nothing about or  really care for .

The Vedic  nationally based systems are far more beneficial for all residents of a country,  along with  genuine authentic scientific  and philosophical studies,  making for a peaceful positive and progressive life .

Global macroeconomics is not working , and is causing a great struggle for 95% of people ,and causing world conflict,  it sets the goals for us , everyone of them artificial goals , whilst the billionaires walk in space instead of understanding what the needs are on the ground , the world deteriates.

TRANSLATION

According to the three modes of material nature and the work ascribed to them, the four divisions of human society were created by Me. And, although I am the creator of this system, you should know that I am yet the non-doer, being unchangeable.

Here we see the words of Lord  Krishna in Bhagavad Gita,  so He suggests, there are already in place in  every single nation , an  intelligentsia,  consisting of realised philosophically minded persons who know body , mind and consciousness, along with the  Vipras , various scholars who have inking for various studies,  leading to expertise in sciences ,medicine ,economics, etc etc .  There are also military men and administrative persons who can easily impose governance and compliance on society and manage risks . Also, there are traders and buisness men ,and there are ample tradesmen and workers .

So each nation has  self-reliance, built in , regretfully the industrial revolution and later the technological revolution, along with globalisation, have  disturbed this natural balance of nations and their self-reliance has been compromised , they have been used and exploited , this has led to poverty and disempowerment  a nation states , as they try to keep up with false promises of the Globalist dreams of shared wealth , which they market to  unintelligent leaders , who are not  part of the real intelligensia . This  exploitation is  historically very deep rooted , but  countries need some reorientation policies set in place , aimed at self-reliance and its  its own people at the heart of decisions. All types of persons needed to  make a successful nation are present in every country , Krishna says so , and we can see it ourselves,  so a conglomerate of nations , each self reliant in Vedic ways , and  not   global  conglomerates creating global networks from the USA or Europe.

This will be the future ,  the Vedas call it ,  one and difference. This is the Vedic way and a fundermental truth one word different nations .

Enclosed universe, infinite space, the accuracy of cosmic calculations using limited senses and parallax measurements.

Aug 7th, 2024

Many ancient cultures speak of the universe  being enclosed with lower , middle, and upper planetary systems within a shell.

Outside this  universal shell , they thought ,  was the place that Divinity had His residency.

The Greeks and later the Arabic cultures as well as a  Vedic culture and other cultures from the South Americas held similar understandings , thus their cultures were intertwined and evidence of  a much earlier concept of a global world can be thought of .

When the Roman empire conquered most of  Europe, taking within their cultures some aspects of Christianity,  some or most of these ways of looking at our universe came to  decline  and when finally  Roman empire came to an end , Christians predominanted and scientific thinking outside the bible came to an end . But the old Arabic and Greek texts were still available, and the  Mogal empires preserved some of this   universal thinking, which was theological in nature

The Renaissance period gave a rebirth to science and a  rethinking of  the universe . Modern geometric systems and euclidean math was the new way of looking at life , so much so , that God was pushed out the picture, and so was dualism,   the mechanistic Darwinian world had begun, scientific materialism, that used  math and mechanistic thinking  , placed our stars millions of miles away,  and a  concept of an infinite space,  with no God outside of a universal shell . If there were a God ,  some thought,  it’s  probably an impersonal energy . The idea of a separate mind to matter was written off because the mind could not be measured , and math could not be applied .

Measurements of the distance of planets in a multidimensional space,  as spoken about by Lisa Randall the Harvard Prof,  may not be so easy,  the laws of physics are said in the Vedas to operate differently in different parts of the universe, so what  is far is near ,what is near is far in a multidimensional universe.

The ancient culture and sciences should not be discarded and rubbished , and replaced by scientific materialism, which  cannot even account for a mind , but rather believe  it to be simple neurons firing in a mechanistic mathematical brain , these events  happening by chance events in a chance universe , this mechanistic veiw could be said to be  ludicrously absurd , and discards the notion of intelligence and obvious design in just about everything, as well as perfect mathematics , where there is perfect mathematics you can bet your bottom dollar there is a perfect mathematician behind it .

The third Canto of Srimad Bhagavatam,  and the chapter entitled The fundermental principles of material nature is a summary of universal events.
