Time in reality is an allocated period  given to conscious beings who temporarily reside  in a particular physical or subtle body for a given length period . These time allocation periods are determined not by random events or even physical laws of nature but by unseen laws and circumstances operating beyond the comprehension of scientific communities . One consciousness particle decides a particular allocation of time to  another consciouseness particle,  everything supervised by a greater consciousness . Where and how the time will be served has been calculated even before death .The many possibilities are constantly at work reacting within the responsive universe. Nobody,  in modern scientific terms , has a single clue why such laws of time are affecting different species at different rates , from the Redwood tree to thd Mayfly.

Material nature is only a tiny  fragmental part of the  Supreme Brahman, Krishna . Krishna has incomprehensible and multifarious energies emanating from Him . Why not understand such things , the light , radiation,  electromagnetic forces, and gravitational forces are a spark of unknown energies.  Who knows their origins or why they are constants . Lord Krishna is one and different from all of  them .Krishna or Visnu ,according to the Vedas ,manufactures every species of life , each under specific strict time allocation . Scientists know  quite a lot about the presence of the laws but can not fathom their origins . Why they hold firmly in place is another mystery. They  presume them happening by random chance events that begin sometime in a  distance past . That’s an easy, childish like guess . The obvious question is , It seems logical , and a fair objective observation , that an order is in a firm place, the laws of universal affairs should have a specific source . After all, in our experience , when we see perfect math symmetry and intelligent design that appear as orderly events , we naturally draw obvious conclusions. The Darwinian alternative that somehow or other these perfect laws of material nature formed and mysteriously maintain themselves seem totally absurd in real terms , the theistic say its an envious conclusion . Many objectively motivated prominent scientists,  rebel against the concept of chance events being an  ultimate cause . Sir Fred Hoyle, for instance , who could see  learly that the laws of nature are finely tuned , with perfect amounts of atoms and compound to make life possible . Sir Fred was puzzled by the availability of so much carbon , which is essential for life . Why  should there be so much carbon  in the universe , compared to other elements . Everything seems set for life .

Law means lawmaker , that’s logic . The Vedas give details of the fundermental principles of material nature , which incorporate the atomic and ethereal plane of existence . The Srimad Bhagavatam indicates that mind and consciousness and matter are brought together and are obliged to interact with time , each of these energies are independent of each other .
In regards to how someone may know the details of the laws of time allocation , the Vedas say the head of this universe Lord  Bramha has inconceivable intelligence ,which has been alloted to him , he is the engineer. As much as Einstein, Schrödinger or Bohr have  inconceivable intelligence  compared to the common man, Bramha’s intelligence is beyond ours .

Lord Bramha , the allocated engineer of this universe,  transmits knowledge of all his scientific works within the universe to Narada Muni , his son . He is no ordinary person of course,  and he was the Guru of Vyasadeva ,who was no ordinary person . He  was the Guru of Sukadeva Goswami ,  who was no ordinary person , but  the speaker of the Bhagavatam ..so one can say the origins of the knowledge of the Vedas and the universe are  coming from beings and personalities beyond it .

So, the  science contained in summary form in the Bhagavatam stems ultimately from the engineer of universal affairs , and Lord Bramha  transmits such knowledge to those that need to know and who have pure senses . Bramha was given the intelligence to carry out his work of creation and laying the foundations of laws by
Visnu Himself.

So the universe is certainly most puzzling to the  science community. The more they  study it , the more complex it becomes , this includes the science of time, its  inconceivable nature , and  so as said before scientists do not understand why time works the way it does , as much as they cannot produce rna in the laboratory to 100 % purity , the way nature makes it , only 1% purity has been achieved in a laboratory setting .
The Vedic system is to accept knowledge from the supreme intelligentsia. The origin of this universe is  Lord Bramha, as much as everyone is accepting knowledge from intelligent men and women ,  people like Richard Feynman , Einstein , Bohr , Schrödinger , Teller etc etc . so why not Lord Bramha ? And the persons he transmitted it to.

The very best scientist always say they  know very little of the real details of the  universe and its  functioning.
Unfortunately,  some  scientists will make bold declarations .
Like the immature Darwinians who assume Darwinian evolutionary theory is fact based science
Real scientific thinkers know it’s not . it’s at most a hypothesis .

Although the mechanistic Darwinian puts it all down to superstition & traits of evolution , there is a common thread in various cultures throughout the world of the worship of various Demigods and Goddesses  . It should not be ignored but rather examined and deeply thought about in philisophical and theological ways and scientifically in terms of a culture of consciousness bringing peace and satisfaction,  and incidentally a change in the way neurons  within he brsin fire . Lord Siva , Lord Bramha , Lord Indra have their counterparts in all cultures. The Goddesses originate from Srimati Radharani. For example .    Lakshmi: The goddess of wealth, fortune, and prosperity. Saraswati: The goddess of knowledge, music, art, and wisdom. Parvati: The goddess of love, fertility, and devotion. Durga: The warrior goddess of feminine power who protects against negative forces. Kali: The fierce goddess of time, change, and the destruction of evil. Each of whom has  different expansions and names within different  cultures and traditions , such as the Greek Gods and Goddesses.  The purpose of the worship of Demigods and Goddesses is to seek various benedictions , and by doing so, one learns to respect higher beings as well as gaining faith in such decending benedictions originating from higher planes . All sorts of benedictions can be sought, providing an understanding of the purpose sacrifices  can be understood.  Sacrifices and atonement bears fruit . Ultimately, this should lead to the benefits of  the gradual spiritual evolution of knowledge culminating in the greatest of good fortune . The direct services of the Supreme Goddess of fortune Srimati Radharani,  from whom all the Goddesses are expanded for many reasons. Srimati Radharani services to Krishna in Goloka Vrndavana are the greatest exhibitions of spontaneous love both in union and separation. In Her form as Laxmi, she attends to the services of  Lord Visnu . Ultimately, if one can acquire the association of a pure Gaudia vaisnava devotee , who follows Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu one can enter into the association Radharani and her Manjari associates . Such is the power of Srimati Radharani alluring nature , that Krishna , the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is forever seeking Her association and is always hankering for Her beautiful glances and smiles . In her original eternally blissful and ever new and ever enthusiastic playful form  , Vrsabhanu Nandini , Srimati Radharani ,  the Supreme Goddess of fortune is the Guru and Krishna is Her disciple in loving affairs. Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has revealed all these truths to the Goswamis of Vrndavana , who have composed many slokas and written extensively revealing to the world , the secret of all secrets .

So why not worship the Supreme Goddess of fortune, Srimati Radharani,  who is only too willing to award Her sincere following the best of what’s in existence in both the material and spiritual realms , and as She gives it to you ,  it increases. She is the abode of love and what she gives is knowledge of Her object of love Krishna. There is an eternal competition in love between the two and Chanting Hare Krishna means Radha Krishna.

FOOD FOR ALL 2024
Charity no 1077897.
A REPORT

A witness.

Rachel Parsons
MSc Anthropology, Environment, and Development

It’s a grey, nippy London day on a grey sidewalk on the edge of Bloomsbury, but Jennie Matthias is dancing; her mass of fire-engine-red curls exploding from under her knit cap. She and a group of volunteers are buzzing around several folding tables in front of the St Giles Hotel that are groaning under the weight of freshly cooked curries, heaps of fruit, vegetables, drinks, and pastries. “What time is it?” Matthias, the food hub manager, hollered. “Twelve? Let’s go! Let’s do this!” 

She bustles over to the start of a queue of people waiting not far from the tables. By noon the line is about 20 people deep and they will keep coming. Matthias can’t say for sure, but she estimates her Food For All meal distribution hub – one of six – will serve free meals to hundreds of people today, as it does six days a week. During an average year, the organisation collectively serves about 2,000 people a day in London. 

“We were doing 5,000 ”  during covid says Peter “Para” O’Grady, director of Food For All (FFA). It has “ticked down a bit” since the first lockdown, but not by much

Dear trust members .

The above is a reporter  who witnessed our activities first hand on the streets of London. 

Throughout last year we continued on with our food for all activities feeding fresh hot meals to the homeless and poor as well as other  vulnerable sectors of society. The cost of living we know is increasing. Many mothers with children also are now regularly coming these days to our distribution points.

Our summer holiday meals for children and our deliveries of food to poor pensioners need to be increased we have plans this summer holidays to ramp up  our kids clubs meals , as parents are finding it difficult to provide their kids with meals when schools are out .

Another witness

This is a reporter from the independent newspaper.

David Cohen is the Independent’s award winning Investigations Editor and Campaigns Editor
Who visited us .

Among them was Food For All in Holborn where, in an impressive culinary feat, 2,000 portions of vegan curry were cooked in a giant aluminium pot large enough for five adults to stand in and delivered to Spurs’s stadium and homeless shelters in King’s Cross, Camden .

The charity’s founder, Peter O’Grady, 56, said the pot  we cook with is  the “biggest in the western world” and that he had bought it at a factory in Agra next to the Taj Mahal. “You can put five of us in it and sail down the Thames,” he laughed.

The massive operation starts at 4.30am every morning when kitchen manager Sofia, 37, turns on the gas “We have a team of volunteers who have peeled and chopped 200 kilos of potatoes and 100 kilos of carrots the night before and they get added in first,” she said.Mr O’Grady arrives between 6am and 7am and starts to work his magic, adding dahl, a wheelie bin of cabbage and another of cauliflower and spinach. Finally he throws in tomatoes, turmeric, ginger and cumin…

OUR CURRENT ACTIVITIES AND PLANS.

The work of  the food for all  Charity goes on 6 days per week seeing to the increasing  needs .We also have connections with other agencies who help the homeless get into permanent housing or  work experience programmes, as well as helping the bodily needs we give facilities to people who might want to access mindfulness programmes , and we have arranged for free programmes at local mindfulness centres.
We will enclose our recent accounts and some photos of our work. 
Thanks for your supporting us many vulnerable persons value it and are receiving valuable help , as governments struggle and cut costs on these kinds  of activities

Kind regards Steven food for all

Every single wildlife programme one  watches are most definitely contaminated with the Darwinian hypothesis . The reality , according to philosophical common sense and the Vedas ,  we are veiwing  conscious beings like ourselves,  who are in  currently inhabiting different bodies and  for numerous reasons a ,  billions of lifetimes may  have  brought them all to their  current situation . Certainly you will find Schrödinger, Bohr,  Einstein Teller and  Feynman would very much understand such  declarations , they all have an understanding of the potential of consciousness along with its interactions and  that effect  matter , causing it to react in different ways , producing bodies,  due to how  past , present and future are  co dependent on each other . Understanding the results of the two slits experiments and the observer effect  in a quantum atomic plane is so far impossible to do ,  So, as  Richard Feynman once said anyone who says he understands quantum mechanics , means , he doesn’t understand . Certainly  a parallel to the Vedic understandings are present in quantum science , of the consciousness observer effecting matter .

One thing is for sure, and it’s  a self manifesting truth , life comes from life . A scientific community has absolutely no idea what consciousness is , so one could very well ask the epistemological question to the Darwinians .How do you know you know ?  ,and how do you know you know you know ?

The resounding answer they don’t,  yet their conclusions and speculations are regularly pumped into our TV screens and taught as fact based science worldwide.

Sambandha , Abhidheya and  Prayojana are all Vedic terms . It means to establish a relationship ,  act  in the relationship  and perfect the relationship..

Sabdha brahman is another important and crucial Vedic term. It means a  pure sound vibration emanating from a pure heart and mind , that’s  completely connected to Divinity . When , by good fortune  , one comes in touch with such  a person  who is able to produce such pure sound it  enables one to directly begin to understand, enter into ,and perfect a   relationship with Divinity .Without such a connection, one is left on the peripherals , perhaps within the impersonal effulgence of Divinity.

By continued hearing or reading the works of such pure devotees who can emit pure sound ,  and by especially serving them in many respects,  especially hearing and understanding their trancendental words,  a perfect relationship  in pure love develops , and one can beginto understand the trancendental relationship that such a person has with Divinity , and our own relationship begins to fructify . Thus gradually revealing ones original spiritual form and activities , all these truths have been recorded by the direct followers of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu , and indeed Mahāprabhu Himself as the perfect teacher , taught by example , hearing the lila pastimes of Krishna from His devotees.

These topics are all discussed in the Srimad Bhagavatam.

Whether  one is in union or separation makes no difference,  which was demonstrated by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu , who experienced the simultaneous feeling of union and seperation at the same moment,  the  highest ecstatic emotions of Srimati Radharani .

Karl Marx thought religion suppressed people &  thought he knew better , a  path to freedom from conformity and authority,  but is it appropriate that a child leaves the authority of the loving parent, who knows how to sufficiently nourish and who loves the child , obviously conformity is the best course of action for the child

In reality,  Marx  sought to control people & bind them to his thinking , but what knowledge of life’s  purposes did he have , before excepting any authority we must know , who is their authority . AND if its their speculative mind that’s cobbled up a philosophy in life or a world or scientific view , why would we want to put our faith in such speculative subjectivity.

Generally we find people are driven by their temporary material senses and minds and a faltering intelligence.

Like five  wild horses, the senses can drag one in unwanted directions ,the reigns are the mind, and the driver should be the intelligence.

But the intelligence is recommended in all theological sciences to be in contact with his eternal passenger, the Supersoul or the holy ghost , the super subjective,  and within the super subjective realm must seek directions.

Today Globalists , politicians, and scientists control the people ,& in the name of freedom, bind them in temporary illusion & uncontrolled hankering , by getting the unthinking to follow the unintelligent.

The horses of everyone’s senses are completely out of control,  the world is in a mess and getting worse.

We must seek the super subjective realm and bring sanity back to our lives ,and help others do the same,  seek out the real intelligentsia .

The whole of the Bhagavad Gita gives us the clear rundown. We must accept the rationale part of our consciousness, and except God has rationale, and thus, communication between Him and His parts and parcels is ongoing

This is a conversation between the founder of ISKCON and some disciples regarding directing society.

Śyāmasundara: Elizabeth, in England, she’s got a…, what she calls a “think tank,” or a board of advisors, who meet and advise her on different policies.

Prabhupāda: Privy council.

Śyāmasundara: Something like that. It’s called a “think tank,” she’s named it. It’s presided over by Lord…, Lord Goodman.

Prabhupāda: No, no. The thing is, unless the people are Kṛṣṇa conscious, either this board or that board, that will not help. First of all, people should know what is the aim of life, what is culture, how the human activity should be directed. The people should know first of all this. Otherwise, changing from frying pan to the fire, it is useless. That is going on. That change, revolution, is going on. Just like the Russian people, they changed the Czarist government into Communist government, revolution, but still they’re unhappy. They’re trying to change by another revolution. This is going on. Punaḥ punaś carvita-carvaṇānām [SB 7.5.30]. This is described in the śāstra as “chewing the chewed.” Or the same simple philosophy = “This side of stool is better than that side.” So he keeps the whole thing, stool. “This side, the dry side, is better, and the moist side, wet side, is bad.” This is no philosophy. It…, it must not be stool. It must be gold. Then it is all right, this side or that side. That philosophy, that the dry side of stool is better than the wet side, this will not help. So first, first of all, human society must know what is the aim of life. Na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇu [SB 7.5.31]. We are part and parcel of God, Kṛṣṇa, Viṣṇu. We are suffering on account of our relationship with God. This is the cause of our suffering. Then we have to make plan how to revive our lost relationship with God. Then the… Everything is there in the Vedic literature. All directions are there. So we have to… Just like when we are in danger, we consult some learned man or physician or a lawyer, similarly we have to consult the Vedic culture, how perfect it is. This way?

So what can we conclude by AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada words?

Who do you want to control your life ?

1. The actual intelligentsia 

2.An administration independent of the intelligentsia

3. The global capatilist

4. The working class .

Who has the way & wherefore & knows the principles of fairness and sensitivity towards all life ?

The intelligentsia?

First qualification , they must understand body mind and consciousness as well as  the various sciences related to them , they must understand various psychological conditions of human existence and know  processes of improving & elevating everyone  according to time place and circumstances , setting everyone on a path of social mobility and spiritual and philosophical education .

The Mission of ISKCON is to not only to establish the traditional and original  Varna Ashram which is a  social  and spiritual system based on utilising the Intelligentsia , who  come in the form of brahmanas and Vipras ,  traditionally their duty was to  direct and advise the administrative political class , who in turn were the   legislators for  social  ,economic and justice policies ,  the  original system of the Vedas  were based on quality of individuals as well as social mobility .

ISKCON simultaneously ,  is  introducing a system to bypass the whole  Varna Ashram system ,  by bringing  to the attention of the public , the perfection of it , namely immediate knowledge of one’s original superior Dharma, ( occupation) ,whatever ones current status , by different yoga systems that  link everyone with direct  trancendental service and realisations  of God ,

The origins of this mission that was  carried out by A.C.BHAKTIVEDANTA swami are  with the great spiritual and cultural reformer Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur , who actually surprisingly worked for a period of time for the British government as a high court judge .

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur son , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja elaborated further on his father’s mission, gave it  shape and directed his disciples to distribute these one could say ,( new testament) teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Rupa Goswami as well as Ragganatha das Goswami.

If one delves into the real history and origins of ISKCON one will find a rich literary culture as well as the epistemology of ISKCON

Vedic culture means following traditions and the highest of cultures in every field of education, including the arts . Its emphasis is to  follow great men and women , with proven qualities as  set out in the Vedas , such inspiration and the best of human qualities automatically benefit the rest of society , by good association one becomes a good and wholesome person . Bad associations  cause one to  become troubled , the education system  must teach how to identify what is good and bad association , and what the benefits are of this , thus rascals should  never be  allowed free reign , as today , especially on social media and within governments , or as business leaders .

Modern Western, lefty liberal , literally  means to follow your own mind and senses , wherever,  and get everyone one to do the same , and aggressively spread this new fangled thinking , even going to war to do so . It has  no real sense  of cultivation of consciousness or conserving traditions of culture and families .  In  the course of time   the essence of knowledge has been lost , the truth always needs reserecting messages because it gets in time replaced by speculations and subjective scientific materialism and perverse cultures. Such is the nature of material conditioned nature along with an  independent free will  .

Persons who follow false “freedoms ” and speculations will find the opposite of what they are looking for , which is perfect loving relationships , but granted, there are 8,4000000 species of life , so plenty of facilities for expression in countless bodies , and how people want to lead their lives , those likings are found in other species , and Bhagavad Gita teaches wherever your taste , an appropriate body awaits.

A human form gives one a chance for freedoms beyond one’s comprehension . it’s our responsibility as humans to know just what those freedoms are .

In reality. Nothing much changes in so-called “democracy.” The political systems are puppets to the global industrialists and national business leaders. They direct everything that political leaders might decide & fund them. Vedic culture does not give preferences to money men ,  rather, careful scrutiny is applied , after all local livelihoods and local communities are valuable assets to everyone and so are all the creatures that live nearby,  why should a distant unaccountable figure , with no cares for anything but profit. from thousands of miles away, be allowed to bring any negative impacts to anyone or to local established communities , or threaten the livelihoods and create instabilities in families or bring poverty to them ,

What right do they have ?Encroachment on others’ territories is a sign of menace and greed .

So, keeping things localised and accountable and the protection of communities is important as well as seeing to the peace and harmonious affairs of all persons and all things that live .

Such are the teachings of the political systems of the Vedas , which will be established in time , as people wake up to the fake news that Globalists rid the world of poverty,  when in reality they create instabilities and bring poverty , in so many ways . Take a look at the world around you , and whilst the Globalists march around the world with USA armies at their disposal,  how much is USA in debt ? 38 trillion dollars.

Fix your own affairs before you think about spreading aggressive militant democracy.
