Yoga , instant communication, its transportational  method .Yoga at its heights..

Srila Rupa Goswami gives the example of a man watching a play , the gentleman is so absorbed in the play that when the main hero dies , he also dies .

Yoga means a shift in identity .

Perhaps you may experience yourself being carried away by a beautiful piece of music on occasions , music is also a type of  yoga .

One  critically disabled person was asked how she coped with what appeared to be a limited life , she answered that she had the freedoms of her inner life ,   in her inner life , she finds  herself to innumerable places carrying out innumerable satisfying activities. It’s a fact our life is only partially led with a body and immediate senses , the mind and intelligence are providing what some will argue as the essence,  and the spiritual meditation takes that concept incalculably further .

Our immediate circumstances are very fast flowing , they are fleeting and limiting  experiences within a set time and  influenced by the particular conditioning of our  body , the body that we currently find ourselves in . Such a body is always changing . Everyone’s body and circumstances differ  because of differences of individual karmic synchronicities caused by the responsive universe. Nevertheless, no one should  ever feel themselves limited in any way .

The instant communication spoken of in quantum physics, according to the Vedas, can be taken further . It takes the well practised yogi to understand spiritual forms , which are  revealed to them by a decending process.  Spiritual form within a spiritually pure mind travels instantly to its destinations at the speed of the mind , incalculably greater than the speed of  light.  An instant transportation takes place , and the devoted and well practised yogis  live simultaneously in fullness both within the material worlds and the  higher realms of spiritual dimensions with Divinity and  His associates  . These yogic aspects are described in the Vedas , as well as the  Bhagavad Gita ,  krishna speaks of who is the best of the Yogis .

The Darwinian mechanic scientific materialism follower is dismissed in the Bhagavad Gita,  wherein Krishna speaks of those in the lower speculative modes who consider themselves matter having faith in only their own speculations , and thus remain in repeated births and deaths within the spectrum of species on this planet or others .

When Lord Krishna was enjoying His pastimes in Vrndavana displaying the joy of relationships in every possible way , He at the same time , occasionally had to deal with the disturbing elements of the Demons who were sent by the Demoniac King Kamsa , who envied the trancendental goodness of pure relationships .
Similarly, although Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu appeared  to relish and teach us to relish  those pastimes of Krishna . Mahaprabhu also dealt with some of the disturbing elements that  opposed truth and who sought to introduce speculations or deviations and who. failed to understand the greater purposes of the Vedas , which is like a great reservoir,  and small ponds can not serve as well as the reservoir.
The preaching activities of Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami follow these examples in both relishing rasa and in pointing out the fools and rascals who pose themselves to everyone as scientists or leading political figures but who cheat by suggesting to the public , the scientific community imply ” We know the answers  to all the big questions  “.  ISKCON business is in challenging the political classes who have introduced “demon crazy,” i.e., so-called democracy that brings the crooked business man to power and silences the intelligentsia.
Those  following Gaudia Vaisnavas, who try to relish rasa as written of by Rupa Ragganatha Goswami’s and others, and who  try to point out the work of the demons are following correctly the Gaudia vaisnava param para .

It should be carefully noted ..

The daily study of Bhagavad Gita is essential, especially to the preacher , philosopher , deep thinker, or any politically minded person . Socialist who study social sciences or scientists of all disciplines should be understood and the antithesis presented. Bhagavad Gita covers every topic . It gives a summary or outline, and every thing are systematically presented . Answer to all inquiries are  given by Lord Krishna . Any questions that anyone might pose are  given answers  . There are no questions left unanswered and further details of those answers are elaborated upon throughout the Srimad Bhagavatam .  The established param para acaryas commentaries , and  elaborations of the Bhagavatam , namely the Smriti , written by Srila Rupa Goswami Srila Ragganatha das Goswami Srila Jiva Goswami and Srila Sanantan Goswami and their following can be accessed

Hundreds of thousands of years ago the Darwinian thought mankind was crawling out of a pond , but the Vedas beg to differ .The Vedas indicates one should consider  the power of the ethereal energies , the powers of mind, and consciousness.

Mind over matter , you have heard the expression .  We live in a responsive universe for sure on many different levels.   Supervised fluctuations of allowances of energies are our life’s story , we have no idea where they came from or what they transform into .The mysterious events of space time , a given set of circumstances at a given time in a particular place in the universe’s.  Supervision,  supervision means another  consciousness that is tasked . Many physicists, including Bohr,  Schrödinger or even Einstein, could follow this thread,  that the biologists leave behind in their primordial soup.

Manipulation of matter within this world   via consciousness and telepathy , or yogic power , is something Marie Curie studied along with her husband .She is a Nobel prize winner in her studies of radiation .

The perfect math and the precision engineering of many of the ancient pyramids still puzzles modern man , as do so many  other ancient structures . Off the coast of Dwarka in India  huge cities have been detected . The endlessly mutable and cyclic movements of the earth are taking place , Volcanic movement and self-destruction of society’s are historic norms . Ancient times are also destined for current times . Empires come and go , and the process is eternally occurring within the material energies. People cannot fathom long periods of time , 4 billion years just  rolls of the tongue and is easily said . Understanding and comprehending these changes are incomprehensible . Some indicators are found to degrees through occasional ancient writing . It is also said in the Vedas that the power of memory 100s of thousands of years ago was extremely powerful .There was no  need  for detailed records to serve as memories. Currently, we can not remember what we were doing in detail a few days ago . What to speak of two weeks, we have become dead to it. Not in former times though , when life was lived differently with greater purity of consciousness  , that brought far more intuitive powers . It also brought access  to communicate with many other planetary systems the Vedas records . It is also said those  residents  would occasionally transport themselves to our plane of existence. 

The mind and consciousness remain a complete mystery to the modern scientific community. We should know that well.

In Vedic cosmological affairs, the earthly plane is situated between the heavenly planets in the higher realms, and the lower planets inhabited by those in more ignorance with the modes ofdemoniac and ghostly beings .
Naturally, at times, beings from both the higher and lower planetary systems take birth on earth for various reasons, say the Vedas .
Jesus said, ” You’ll know them by their fruits.”
Why do we need  educated democracies and not fools voting in fools .Take a look at our exploitative world led by questionable characters , have they come from lower planets?

Cor and peripheral ISKCON

The mission of AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada
The essence of Krishna consciousness

FOUNDER ACARYA OF ISKCON…

ISKCON has both cor and peripheral goals . The cor goals are the esoteric teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu as he laid out to Srila Rupa and Ragganatha das Goswami’s .AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada has indicated in his books what they are and has summarised everything . The  peripheral goals are very important because they are to in time link all members of society to the cor , this can be achieved in one life or the many life approach. So to some , and I stress only some of the peripherals.  To fulfill the vision of AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada , the founder Acarya of ISKCON things like reintroducing lost aspects of Vedic culture that are said to have originally permeated societies world wide can be again introduced for the social benefits and progressive benefits of consciousness and mental health. ISKCON will be  highlighting the common traits and language connections  between many of the historical world cultures.  Many English words have their origins in Sanskrit ,  as does Latin . As well,  it’s easily seen that many existing cultures and religions have obvious Vedic connections. ISKCON’S nonsecterian outlook brings to the forefront the true equality of all beings, a self evident truth , Thomas Jefferson, one of the founding fathers of the USA constitution, famously wanted that phrase in the constitution .

THE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF ISKCON And ITS VISION
Srila Prabhupada, under the inspiration and instructions of his spiritual master Srila Bhaktisiddanta Goswami Maharaja, established The Hare Krishna movement to fulfill the desire of Srila  Bhaktivinode Thakur, who envisioned a united world of philosophy science and religion . This  would be based on the very broad Vedic teaching that brings both  social and spiritual mobility. The all-encompassing understanding of Divinity is at the heart of ISKCON . Other Gaudia Vaisnava’s also know of these truths , but ISKCON has a large and effective organisational structure in place that is improving all the time , they are situated according to the teachings and practices of Rupa Goswami , Sanatana Gosvami and Ragganatha das Goswami , who were personally trained and taught by Lord Krishna in His appearance as Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu . His teachings are centred around a gradual evolution of consciousness initially through Devi Varna Ashram and culminating in full Love of God as exhibited by Srimati Radharani and her confidants in Goloka Vrndavana

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the founder Acarya of ISKCON, has established fully all nine processes of devotional services within his ISKCON society introducing them successfully all over the world within twelve years , an unparalleled trancendental achievement .Prabhupada’s devotional service knew no end and indeed constantly increases.
His literary contributions were astounding as well as his trancendental management skills , his application of practical devotional services that he engaged his disciples in fulfill the desires of both Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaj in bringing the Vedic teachings to modern-day life , and particuarly the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu . AC Bhavtivedanta Swami’s ISKCON movement is ever increasing in every way, and its influences are being felt increasingly in the world it has been destined for great things , this is still its beginning periods.
These are the nine fold processes..
The nine stages of devotional service are: hearing, chanting, remembering, serving the lotus feet, worshipping, offering prayers, serving as a servant, making friends with the Lord, and surrendering everything .

Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja once said, ” If I could make one pure devotee, my life’s work would be successful.”
Of course, by his trancendental purity and trancendental knowledge that he imparted, he made many .
Likewise Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada has made many pure devotees, if he could not have done so, as some Ritvic speculative persons think , both soft and hard , how could it be said Prabhupada mission was successful, the Ritvic’s limit Prabhupada and thus they do not understand Prabhupada in truth or what he has achieved .
Passing trancendental knowlege into the heart of another is clearly spoken of by Lord Krishna Himself in Bhagavad Gita .
One can say ripe mango unripe mango , but a mango attached to its roots and left in the sun will become ripe , its inevitably the case , and to assume every mango will fail to ripen on a tree with up to 1000 mangos on each tree is illogical ..

Prince Charles, whose distant kingly ancestors wrongley set up an independent church to facilitate his own sex drive , amongst other things . King Henry wanted to be a spiritual leader,  but he should have remained under spiritual leadership . He called his new independent organisation, the church of England, and Henry was the head . Yesterday, King Charles humbly walked into the Vatican and prayed with the Pope . It took 500 years to return , but he didn’t hand back the keys .
Looking back, it was an ungodly and destructive move by the foolish and materially contaminated king Henry , he was no Godly King . Kings are supposed to be advised by the  intelligentsia who are well versed in consciousness , theological concerns , and philosophical matters .
The results of the old lusty kings  actions brought a watered down interpretations of theological matters and a different type of  political administration . In time, Cromwell foolishly thought the land owners should run affairs and not the king or theological intelligentsia . Cromwell’s move was unintelligent , thinking that the land owners could  better  know how to administer and guide people than theologians and the highly intelligent philosophically grounded persons who undersood dualism . The land owners were indeed clueless on such matters  , their knowledge peaked at profit making and exploitation . Eventually, these events led rather unfortunately to modern-day “uneducated democracies “consisting of “fools voting in fools.” Is it not true ? Look at the world. In  reality , in  order to vote you must know what a leader is along with his qualifications,  and a good leader always listens to the philosophically minded who understand the sciences of consciousness and the sciences of the material energies, along with  its purposes and functions . Thus,  the Vedic systems , where the  genuine intelligentsia ,who are  philosophically , theologically , and scientifically astute, are  advising those that govern because we live in a world of dualism , matter, and consciousness.

And Einstein knew it .

He said .

Religion without science is blind and science without religion is lame …..taking matters further…. political  affairs without religion and the science of consciousness is  both lame and destructive.

The solution is educated democracies, but how do you educate everyone. It’s impossible..thus fools are voting in fools and crooks ..
The genuine intelligentsia are needed , who understand dualism , along with the workings of the material energies, these energies have a purpose, and the responsive universe connects consciousness to those material energies , that’s understood by those who know something of quantum physics. The physical world is not what it appears to be . Those types of intelligent persons work  with other types of intelligent persons , and they  should be advisors to a gallant dutiful leader king who is dedicated to his peoples for life .
Such a king with his advisors control the businessmen , who haven’t got a clue on anything but to make profit at any cost , they are creating wars for exploitative reasons , and should never ever  be at the helm.
There are different classes of men with specific qualities..
Key to good societies is putting people in order …the right person with the right qualities doing the jobs they are suited for .
This order of persons is in every society.
Democracies can do more harm than good , but so can the wrong autocratic systems or the unworthy theological philosophical persons when they have no purity or intelligence of how to apply scripture broadly to different classes of persons , in particular time place and circumstance.

What are the origins of magnetic forces , how did they come to be the way they are and functioning so precisely and critically ,  they are “all important ” with many uses that are known and many no doubt unknown.  Electromagnetic forces are just as much a mystery as the origins of Dna information. Although scientific communities study natural phenomena and utilize these various energies, they have no idea of their origins or how the constant laws  remain constant or how the Dna  information within the genome came about .
The Bhagavad Gita tells of the cause of all causes  and that everything is designed purposely and perfectly. Nyaya logic says when we see smoke, we know there is or was fire . Similarly, the sane and humble person submits to the logic of if it looks intelligently designed, it probably is , every ancient theological culture speaks like that . Thus, Einstein says religion   without science is blind and science without religion is lame . God must be a rational person and have ways to communicate with us, but at the same time, he  grants  and respects our free will .

Consciousness is one question, and what one is conscious of is another .
Everyone is conscious, including the birds, bees , insects , animals, and fish , but what are they conscious of.. What is shaping their consciousness and why ?, what is shaping our consciousness and why ?
Can we be conscious of something others are not conscious of , or can others be conscious of things we are not conscious of ?…sure ….

Thus , the Vedas says we must study consciousness and bring it to its full potential, its a gift of the human form of life that everyone can take advantage of .
By connecting to the unlimited consciousness, the limits of conditioned consciousness become greatly expanded and enhanced . The process of this enhancement is given in the Vedas . It moves one systematically from ignorance to passion to goodness and finally to pure goodness called Suddha Sattva .
The Bhagavad Gita and the Srimad Bhagavatam give us the analysis .
AC Bhaktivedanta Swami has translated and given comments to all its verses

Bhagavad Gita 9.10

Translation

This material nature, which is one of My energies, is working under My direction, O son of Kuntī, producing all moving and nonmoving beings. Under its rule this manifestation is created and annihilated again and again.

Govardhan puja day ….

Krishna purposes one could say are showing .

1, Krishna protects his intimate family
2, Krishna demonstrated that worship of God rather than His agents the demigods is superior worship

3. That Krishna protects those that take shelter of Him and they will not be disturbed by the wrath of good and bad karma brought by karmic displays that the astrological Gods bring
4. Although the power of nature , under the control of the demigods , such as strong electromagnetic storms and the like can easily over come humans , the strongest and most constant force Gravity that floats planets and pulls the mighty oceans , it is overcome by the young Krishna’s little finger .
5. Krishna displays though this lila the importance for Him of Govardhan, and He holds it in high esteem, His intimate devotees know of the inner glories of Govardhan hill , the greatest of devotees , who provides many secret pastime places for Radha Krishna lila
6. Sometimes scholars or strict religionists miss the point , Indra thought the residents of Vraja were neglecting the Vedas by stopping the Demigod worship and had become sentimentalist, sometimes people cannot see the wood for the trees , Eventually Krishna corrected Indra , in his extreme applications that brought him even murderous intent .This is lila Indra was the instrument..We should learn lessons regarding fanatical doctrine.
7. This lila brought about the appreciation of all the devotees of Vraja for the way others of them loved Krishna, for seven days continuously they all adored Krishna , although secrets remained secrets , but together in union and seperation they exchanged their love with Krishna learning to appreciate each other is key to advancing in spiritual life .

The materialist have their thesis, a world veiw . It is helped along by modern-day scientific communities ,  scientific materialism, and Darwinian hypothesis . It is  taught and  presented to the gullible public as fact based sciences from the time of childhood to ones grave , “cheating science,” says AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. “It’s a society of the cheaters and the cheated “.

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada arrived in 1965 on the shores of the USA with the Vedic antithesis . Utalising the Devi Varna Ashram systems Prabhupada,  under the direction of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur ,  sought to bring a synthesis between the spiritual and material frontiers . In doing so, the goal is to harmonize. All the various interests and various cultures of the world can be enhanced bringing  even more beauty within  societies when the purpose of life is understood and it is centred on Krishna consciousness either in peripheral ways or with deeper  understanding  of the cor values of spirituality.

East meets West Prabhupada would say , and  the Vedas has the systematic processes and  purificatory methods to balance peoples lives between the spiritual and material .  Primarily in this age, it is inacted  by the introduction of the chanting the Holy names of God in everyone’s lives . With this process , some sanity can be developed , and the process of Sankya yoga and  buddhi yoga  will begin . The benefits can arise in anyones heart, as trancendental intelligence begins to properly discriminate between matter and spirit, allowing a following of the objective sciences that clearly point to intelligent design,  that empowers us to see God in everyone and everything .

It’s not so easy to present an  antithesis to a current dogmatic thesis  consisting of  shadows and deceit brought about by the leading  materialists’ global world .  Many adaptations in the Vedic process are required , and adjustments to previously established ways will need to be found without losing the Vedic essence. The Vedic intelligentsia are meant for that purpose.

Srila Prabhupada was one such expert at the art of presenting the Vedic antithesis to the materialist’s thesis who present a  flawed and speculative world veiw . Prabhupada sought a synthesis and indeed adapted Vedic cultures within the modern age. He also  expected his disciples to follow suit with a high degree of intelligence and Vedic learning . That comes from inspiration given directly by Krishna , He gives intelligence to those who wish to serve Him  sincerely under the direction and guidance of the previous acaryas , all of whom have written extensively

Even when  Lord Krishna was present 5000 years ago, Krishna adapted to circumstances, as did Mahāprabhu . When Ashvathama killed the children of Draupadi , devotees  including Arjuna and Yudhisthira wanted Ashvathama  killed , and even Krishna thought it best . However, He adjusted to time and circumstances because of Draupadi’s desire and worked a compromise.  The  listening to the good sentiments of a high-class lady Krishna thought important .

“An example of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s adaptation of Vedic culture for the Kali Yuga is his emphasis on the chanting of the Hare Krishna mantra as the primary form of worship, replacing the complex, external Vedic rituals like large-scale sacrifices. He taught that the sankirtan movement, or congregational chanting, was accessible to all people, regardless of their caste, creed, or social standing, making spiritual practice attainable for everyone in this age.”

Adaptions of Sastric injunctions require the best of the intelligentsia . Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur,  Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja and Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada showed that example.

Srila Prabhupada because of his deep loving services to his Guru Maharaja was able to instill that same  commitment into the hearts of many intelligent young men and women , they had many skills in their own right taught to them by Western educational systems and those skills were turned against the very material society  that taught them so an antithesis could be intelligently presented ,  quickly Krishna consciousness spread  to many many people , like father like son .

God has many, many  facilitating and functional forms , He also has responsive forms to particular circumstances , and of course, His glorious Lila pastimes forms . His original form is  the Supream personality of Godhead Lord Krishna , He is the original Supreme personality of Godhead . God is described  within the Vedas as being complete, more complete, and most complete, and this is reflected  in the way He reciprocates with His devotees . In Vrndavana, Krishna displays His most complete original form along with Srimati Radharani and all His family and various friends.  Srimati Radharani is the original Supreme Goddess of Fortune who  expands  Herself to bring unlimited blissful pastimes for the pleasure of Krishna who reciprocates accordingly.
The Srimad Bhagavatam and the Caitanya Caratamrita explain all these trancendental events ,  both of these works have been translated and commented on by Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and are available to read in English as well as other Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas.

Schrödinger, the famous physicist, thought there was only one mind ……much akin to Sankaracarya and the impersonal school

In that sence its a fact that Annirudha , the portion of Visnu , is the total material mind , that the individual living beings are covered by  and utalise in materialism.   However, the original pure spiritual mind has its spiritual independence and individual capacity . The  full meaning of simultaneously and inconceivably one and difference is exhibited in a spiritual realm .
Srila Jiva Goswami says we should not overstate the oneness or the difference in any of the realms . Conditioned natures exhibited in this world mean a greater covering  of knowledge and an illusion of freedoms , one’s full potential is suppresed by our own attractions to an illusory energy.
