The ” beginning ” of Karma

A great and important philosophical question posed by Vrajanatha in Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s Jiva Dharma, the occupation of the soul .

The Vedas indicates we are manifest from Lord  Balarama, the first expansion of Krishna,  and because the soul is part of Him , and Krishna always been , we could conclude,  so have we . Within Krishna are unlimited expansions , thus the simultaneous one and difference can be looked at in this way , or as Jiva Goswami says in his Tattva Sandarbha verse 43 , Krishna makes the impossible possible , by manifesting totally separate entities with free will .

We also have to understand the expression ,  “ time immemorial ,”   we can not fathom times beginnings.

Balarama brings forth the  ” dormant ”  Jivas , it could be understood in this way , because He wants to increase Krishna’s pleasure. We are not dead stones or downloads of Balarama , but we have free will . The more we use our free will for its intended purpose , the more freedom we can experience  . On our being “manifest ” , just as a good father tells us all about the proper and beneficial way to conduct life for our greatest benefits , similarly Balarama , our original father , by His example brings  freedom of expression,  love and attraction . Spontaneously, the living beings reveal their consciousness by their own personality and personal attractions . Love is always voluntary and can never be forced . The complete and full  existence of Divinity.  the most complete,  is only ever understood by love. Indeed Sanatana Goswami has shown in  his litrature in the pastime of Gopa Kumar , that when Gopa Kumar  finally returned to a spiritual world,  the Lord was waiting and embraced him saying “where have you been I have missed you and have been waiting?” Such is the Love of the Supreme Father of all .

It’s indicted by Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur , the jiva enters a tatasta state , which is understood as the  impersonal Brahman , those that are not inclined to share their  consciousness remain in impersonal bliss . However , for want of activity ,  they come to the material planes , to ultimately refine their activity and experience life without God as their friend.  Ultimately we must learn that Krishna is Rasaraja the king of exchanges of love .This movement of the jiva from the brahman energies is completed by a ” transporational” glance , the living being is injected into matter.

Each Jiva reveals their state of consciousness , thus the Jiva is connected automatically either to Maha maya or Yoga maya ,i.e., the spiritual or material energies , according to their  free spirit . It  appears our consciousness  having this  free spirit,  connected itself to Maha maya , we are in the material realms . Balarama obviously detected such independence of  desires and arrangements that they were made , automatically through ethereal planes in the multidimensional unlimited space time . Initially with relatively exalted consciousness . Mahamaya or Durga Devi has the task  of providing an  illusion of artificial lordship and thus temping  one to enjoy, and further entanglements begin .

Some people say God knows everything,  but does He know when you will turn in Love towards Him , and how you will love Him and the intensity ?

In conditioned consciousness, one is firmly in God’s  energy,  as the high court judge knows the destination of the criminal, so a harmful soul is under God’s  grips , with predicable consequences . Not a pure soul , he has his full freedom and is consequently unpredictable, love is dynamic. Ever increasing  loving exchanges with the master of love Divinity or Krishna takes place unlimitedly.

Not too much oneness , not too much difference..this needs considering..

“That means we all individual beings, we are individual constitutionally. God is the father or creator or whatever, or the source of all life, or source of our existence. Whatever you like, you can say. So we have…, we have been created in that way. Eko bahu syāma. God has become many. This is also version of the Vedas that many, all these many, we are also god. Just like the fire diffuses its sparks. The sparks coming out of the fire, it is the…, they are also part and parcel of the fire. Similarly we, we are all parts and parcels of the Supreme.”

“Now, He wanted to become many. He wanted to become many, so He has become many, and we are that many. So we are not different from God. We are not different from God, but because He wanted to become many, so we are the many. Now, thing is, when God wanted to become many, there must be some purpose behind this. Otherwise, why did He like to become many? He was one, one without second. That’s all right. But why did He become many? So that is a question, one must like to put, that “Why God became many?”

“So that is, that answer is that because God is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha [Bs 5.1],”

“[Kṛṣṇa who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.]”

“He’s all-pleasure—therefore, without many, there is no pleasure. Just like here I sit down the whole day alone, but I become more active and more pleasing when you come. Whenever we want to enjoy some pleasure, pleasure is not enjoyed alone. Pleasure is enjoyed with many. Now God is by nature… He’s ānandamayo ‘bhyāsāt [Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12].”

The words of Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

Spiritual life is a place where one’s pure consciousness is uncontaminated by inferia, material energies has form, and a place . The place and form are not constructed of atoms , elements , or compounds that is  accompanied by the flickering subtle mind that is almost programmed to be a self serving tool . The body and mind are forever accepting and rejecting sensual,  mental, and intellectual subjects .  The intellect  has been shaped by many  others and the formation of opinions and sensuality goes back many many lives , the science of consciousness within space time is extensively covered in the Vedas with incredible details. Just how such conditions began and how they continue should be of interest to everyone.  Envy , neglect, or self seeking can be a problem when it comes to the development of the finest aspects of knowledge. What is the nature of beauty  love and perfectly situated lives free from material impositions,  even birth , death , old age, and disease are artificial impositions for a conscious state , no one welcomes them .
One should also seriously consider the analytical nature of Vedic psychology , how, for instance, consciousness has been conditioned over many lives and, as a consequence, has become overly attached in many, many ways . Actually, there are 8,400,000 different species of life to become absorbed within .
Dust on a mirror is wiped clean , revealing the clear, uncontaminated reflection that was present all along .

The artistic community in all their colours, ie writers , film makers , musicians, etc etc , are serving a good purpose within society if they inspire people to examine life to think philosophically about it utalising the objective sciences that are within everyone’s vision ..
If the artists sell out to scientific materialism, Darwinian hypothesis or extreme forms of political liberalism or extreme forms of dictatorships, then they fail in their duties to uplift or examine . Then they have lost their independent artistic natures and have become tools of the political or scientific systems.

Life is never extreme. Rather, there are countless paths that consciousness can  follow , and following the consciousness is a  responsive universe awarding the  inculcabable bodies and situations spread far and wide within this localised planet and  within the universe which is part of a multiuniversal reality says the Vedas .

Conformity is meant for education and enlightenment, and it is Divinities’ desire for everyone to experience the best that life can offer . Everything is relatively good, but we must understand absolutes if we want to realise our full potential.

That’s the Vedic way , and expert members of the intelligentsia know how everything is to be balanced.

The unthinking person creates havoc and does great harm .

One Vedic perspective.

It can be seen as
Geeks and quasi intellectuals manipulating history , media , science , politics , religion , and social sciences , with their psychological attempt to make their one world  libeterian culture to suit the economic vision of conglomerates . The world is their’s for the taking , they think . The world of scientific materialism with Darwins shadow darkening traditional cultures . Like  wisdom of family values stemming from tried and tested  theological cultures and predominantly localised economies based on non encroachment ,  respect of others cultures , as well as caring for every living thing that’s found in nature and of nature itself ….

But why not ride the right waves ..

Yoga and great theological cultures are like surfing.
The surfers are sitting out in the ocean watching the waves roll in and crash into the shore , they neglect to ride them and only choose the best of them .
They are waiting for far, far greater waves to ride, and that can really satisfy them  Although in the material world, everything crashes at death , some  thoughts and desires are beneficial  and progress our journey to pure consciousness. Transformations of energies are occurring. Krishna’s material or spiritual energies are interrelated and can liberate or entangle .
Nothing is separate from Krishna , but choose the right waves of energy and transform the highest of the waves of the best of culture into pure spirit .
Bhagavad Gita teaches how .

Uniquely individuals Uniquely experiencing .

“Every snowflake is unique. While snowflakes can be broadly categorized into different shapes, the specific details of each individual snowflake’s intricate structure are highly unlikely to be identical to another. This is because snowflakes form in a dynamic environment, and the conditions they encounter as they fall, such as temperature and humidity, constantly change, leading to unique growth patterns.”

Whilst it seems impossible to comprehend that each snowflake could exhibit such unique appearance,  it’s equally incomprehensible that each particle of consciousness , a living being  , are feeling and undergoing a unique emotional and sensual experience in their own right. even when in very similar  circumstances . No individual feels and experiences in exactly the same way , and that goes for every creature throughout the universe . “Think of a huge shoal of fish in the Caribbean.”

The power and unlimited potencies of God are on display in innumerable ways and can be seen easily exhibited ,  or , for some, not exhibited at all .That’s another side of Krishna’s innumerable and incalculable energies . Those  energies can  enlighten or  cause confusion and doubt .

Ultimately, every individual has an individual relationship with the Supreme Autocrat Krishna , Krishna is very, very personable and is awaiting us to uniquely turn our attention to him .

Jivera svarupa hoy .

We are all intimately related to Krishna,  our real well wisher , and His devotees reflect those feelings.

The Christian cultures, as they  are sometimes presented, are a little confusing, to say the least .

I say that because when ill fortune hits a particular Christian , some believe it’s the work of devil’s,  demons, or witches that are cursing them .They have no references to previous lives and think one life means  heaven or hell  eternally , so their previous sowing and their current reaping are not connected in their eyes , they blame the evil spirits, not themselves.

Is this a true reflection on the  truth of  Christian theological positions , I don’t think so .

Every theologically driven culture has its strengths and weakness, and throughout history, infiltrators and speculations can easily arise within them all .

We have great appreciation for all theological cultures, but every one of them needs references to traditions and roots , and it must be clearly demonstrated.  God is a rational person ,  and all His dealings make sense. Free will and determinism need to be properly explained.

As you sow, so shall you reap can  mean many things , and those who say it only  means heaven or hell forever appear very, very  immature theologians.

And those that explain bad fortune is coming from the devil or evil and is  a  curse , also needs reference,  we need  thorough examination and much further considerations  theologically as to what is meant.   Nothing is left to the  sentimentalist when it comes to theological matters , but rather, it must also be  scientific,  logical, and show the evidence of the obvious rationale of an  all merciful God .Mercy above justice is another consideration.

The soul is eternal, and the symptoms of the soul are consciousness , the Vedas clearly say and define consciousness. That consciousness is scientifically shown to be in all creatures , not just humans is an undisputed fact . Thou shall not kill in that case  should mean what it says .

Those following scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis should consider the Vedas and what it states , i.e that speciation follows consciousness in 8400000 different ways , not that matter itself causes speciation and consciousness springs from it ..Thus , its a fact that any PhD chemist can confirm that molecules don’t move towards life . The physicists can also confirm the multidimensional aspects to this and other universes as well as the mysterious way quantum physics interacts with consciousness as if we are living in a responsive universe. Incidentally, that happens to be fully contained within the Vedas as well as the explanation as to how consciousness became entangled within the material energies in the first place .
Srimad Bhagavatam brings all the Vedas and the Puranas together, highlighting the full epistemological processes of knowledge acquisition ..

Certainly, the information within the genome is  fully present with the particals of the consciousness. Although its origins are unknown to science . The building of each of the  specific bodies are tailor made . Significant signalling takes place to assemble the parts of the specific body as the dna passes information to the Mrna , and then the the Ribosomes who take the information and start building bodies.  The Vedas itself indicates the divinely inspired and monitored ” Karmic algorithmic ” are at play . The responsive universe has already collected the full information required of each particular partical of consciousness as nature under the full control of Divinity awards another fresh set of circumstances .  This brings an appearance of the ” ever new.” For the soul, there is never birth of death .Says Lord Krishna in thd Bhagavad Gita.

A break up of the monopolies of  Meta , Instagram , X , and tick tock will be pivotal in making society fair , safe , and truely reflective of good free speech . Currently, free speech and multiple trends and various cultures are under the control of algorithms, and importantly, in the hands of those who choose to set them in particular ways .
Free market economics in every conceivable way is the Vedic way .  Controlled markets and infiltrated cultures controlled and manipulated by a few are for sure  detrimental to all ….in many many ways ..centralised anything is bad news and goes against nature itself.

On a  political note, France is being  swept away and Germany to follow .
The centralised EU has had its day ..

The libeterians are in retreat, and the fools who formally voted in fools are getting smarter .
The EU main downfall has been their ideology of free Ukraine .Let the Ukrainian peoples decide what freedom looks like ,  being dominated by global conglomerates and media companies is not freedom exactly is it . Currently, domestic gas prices are quadrupled, and inflation increases, and borrowing soars to pay , not for education or social needs , but weapons for Ukraine..

How can you  possibly have a leader who is clueless about the real needs of people , their  consciousness, and the sciences behind consciousness itself . Our current foolish leaders disregard the great philosophers and scientists who objectively have  proof of intelligence within the  highly structured universe .
How can you have a leader who blindly follows the subjective speculations of Darwinian scientific materialism and the direction of travel that takes  society in
Time for educated opinions  to vote in  the intelligentsia .
Sentimental fools voting in fools doesn’t wash anymore ..

The UK politicians are all desperate to become like Trump, who actually follows in the footsteps of the presidents of Russia and China with  conservative values and family traditions. The EU is a sinking ship, and Ukraine has missed the boat .

The essence.

The great theologians understand the essence of their particular scriptures and carefully understand the peripherals as well . Fanatics are not theological in the slightest .

Every theologically driven culture has its peripherals and its cor, which can vary due to specific time ,circumstances, and location.

The first class devotees of each culture understand the essence and the peripherals ,  but the third class devotees get caught up in materially motivated peripherals or misunderstand the cor .

The essence of religions and knowledge brings one to love God and to  see God in everything and everyone. Thus, humble respect for one and all is prevalent in their hearts . They see the oneness and differences and understand them well .

The third class followers should be respected but not necessarily listened to in terms of theological conclusions . They tend to see differences and don’t possess the wisdom to see the oneness in diversity .  The essence , which is to love God and give up enmity and envy of others ..is what theologies teach us .

The steady state hypothesis, which is now dead in the water, meant no creation, no God .Big bang , of course, means a beginning…….a creation .
The Atheistic scientific community initially did not like the Big Bang , they preferred the atheistic steady state , and many still question it as such .
People like Stephen Hawkins tried to construe that this big bang popped out of some unknown quantum state …he was really clueless and merely clutching at speculative straws , he appeared to want to desperately keep God out of the picture.
Indeed, the big bang is clearly explained in theological sciences .” Let there be light ” the bible records , the Vedas say sound is the beginnings of everything in material creation, the absolute sound of God’s command brings immediate results , when a powerful person makes a command things happen.
There are different details from different cultures, but the Vedas give us much detail as to how the multi universe formed , recorded understandings in the Vedas , and a long time before Hawkins or the string theorists recounted it .
As Sir Fred Hoyle clearly remarked, he did so because the universe and our planet demonstrate perfect math symmetry and clear evidence of design , a design incidentally that Richard Dawkins tells you to ignore . So, Sir Fred Hoyle rightly said, “that someone has monkeyed with the universe.”
Only a textbook Darwinian, who is clueless about math and having no model for mutational math hypothesis, supposes that something highly organised and which is clearly demonstrated to be so in innumerable ways , could come about by chance.
When a leader in scientific research wants to mix chemicals to produce a particular synthetic property, he does so , everything begins by his desire and a need , then utalising his intelligence , he gives commands to his various assistants.
If one scales up that principle unlimitedly to the unlimited intelligence of  a far greater personality like God , one can logically arrive at the intelligence of God .The real details of the evolution of the universe remain mysterious to us , as much as how bees communicate with each other or how birds use the magnetic energy supposedly to navigate , there are multiples of mysterious right there in your back garden .
Here is some truth .re mutational math .
A billion monkeys typing on one billion typewriters for one billion years will not produce a perfectly punctuated page of a Shakespeare script, including the spaces between the words.
You require the whole script, which assembles the a.c.t.g, in particular sequence to form each part of a body ..having received information from the carrier rna molecules.

This virtual situation we find ourselves in along with sound waves , lightwaves ,  nerve impulses,  that are reactionary inside  the neurons within our brains , each of which travel at colossal speed and that our minds and intelligence are  connected to , and according to the Vedas minds and intelligence are experienced due to a devolved state of  our consciousness. This is what many define as life . At any time, all these interactions and exchanges of information can cease , that’s what is referenced as death .

Yantra is a word used by Lord Krishna in his Bhagavat Gita , the machine of the material body that is granted by material nature .  Just as we are completely in forgetfulness of what our machine was experiencing a few weeks ago , death means a simple forgetfulness , but of everything . Although some deep impressions and deep seated traits of previous experiences stay within as our  new body arrives .

The body carries with it karmic synchronicities, and the previous responses that are due from the responsive universe is to be lived out in our new virtual reality machine .

The Bhagavad Gita gives the full details and the reasons for all the comings and goings. As well The Gita also explains how reality can be experienced outside the virtual
