Lord Krishna decends to this material plane very rarely . He enjoys  beautiful spiritual pastimes in Vrndavana. Displays of pure spiritual love are on full  show , and a Supreme artistry of relationship is exhibited ,  thus, the greatness of His ecstatic  personality is fully displayed in every conceivable way . He is known as Rasaraja . He decends to this material plane and  occasionally has to deal with  disturbing elements of the Demons , who envy the  trancendental goodness of pure relationships .
Similarly, Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu appeared over 500 years ago  to relish Krishna’s magnificent pastimes and, importantly, to teach us also the means and methods to do so . Mahaprabhu also had to deal with some of the disturbing elements that opposed the  truths of spiritual bliss and  instead sought to  introduce speculations or deviations by misrepresentation of the Vedas . Those who failed to understand the greater purposes of the Vedas , that is likened to a  great reservoir,  that the  small ponds fail to emulate.
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 as learned as scientists or leading political figures but who cheat . The scientific community implies ” We know the answers  to all the big questions  its all very clear by our calculations.” And imposter political leaders , who are puppies of conglomerates, make endless promises they know they won’t keep .  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 descriptions should be understood by the preachers and the antithesis to modern society presented. Bhagavad Gita covers every topic . It gives a summary or outline,  everything is systematically presented . Answer to all inquiries are  given by Lord Krishna . We could say any questions that anyone might pose will be   given answers  . There are no questions left unanswered, and further details of answers are elaborated upon throughout the Srimad Bhagavatam .  The established param para acaryas commentaries are like   elaborations of the Bhagavatam , namely the Smriti .  Written by Srila Rupa Goswami , Srila Ragganatha das Goswami , Srila Jiva Goswami , and Srila Sanantan Goswami and also written by  their following can be accessed .

It is demonstrated in the Vedas that Krishna develops the desire to help others, and that might be expressed in many many   ways .

The Jivas have always been, but it can be understood they are ” expressed ” or “manifested” from Krishna.  As Srila Jiva Goswami in Tattva Sandarbha says, Krishna is  inconceivably making the impossible possible. The living beings are simultaneously and inconceivably one and different , this is how the philosophers of Gaudia Vaisnavism explain these truths . It appears and is my  understanding that some of the Jivas originate  from Maha Sankarsana , and some from Mula Sankarsan, some of  those who appear from Maha Sankarsan, are unable to reach out in  spontaneous love with Krishna. 

Maha Sankarsan then at a point manifests as Mahavisnu  ,  He  displays a  helping mood of the Lord , consequently  I would posit , Maha Visnu takes those Jivas from the tastasta brahman , who could not spontaneously love Krishna and who are stationed in the spiritual impersonal energies . Those  who originated from Maha Sankarsan . Because God  is all-knowing and wants to help them understand the feelings of relationships and rasa , He  gives  facilities for activities,  because they can not act spontaneously in love with Him directly they act materially

 “A pencil of light “, that I believe Srila Narayana Maharaja refers as the Jivas entering into Maya …from Sambu, sounds like they are arriving from somewhere , 

In that sense, Krishna as Maha Visnu is  manifesting and arranging the facilities and the ultimate rescue of the Jivas with His rectification programme that can take endless cycles. The Maha kalpa .

 Visnu appears in many incarnations to rectify and attract the lost souls .

In that way, Maha Visnu remains a functional form who exhibits the facilities, but  from Him come  other incarnations come to help the jiva .

Jiva Goswami indicates in the Tattva Sandarbha the Jiva is the cause of the material universes by their desire ,  Sadaputa would refer to a responsive universe,  with  many possibilities , akin to quantum physics. 

In that way  the origins of some of the  jivas are from Maha Sankarsan and then Maha Visnu Via Sambu  ,who  brings the tatasta jivas who cannot directly love Krishna , into the material realms to fulfil their independence and help them understand and  ultimately regain their original purpose. Its difficult to understand how God would impose death on Jivas without they themselves making a choice for false independence. 

Another question arises,  can Mahavisnu expand jivas , some of which can directly enter the spiritual realms, ?

 I believe He does not play that role 

Srila BR  Sridhar Swami ,  gives some references to the origins via tatasta and Brahman And Srila Gour Govinda Swami quotes Bhagavatam purport 4.30 .5

THE Cheaters and the cheated

If we teach our school children , science that is equivalent to saying effectively one billion monkeys in one billion years on one billion typewriters will complete perfectly 5 pages of a Shakespeare script including the punctuations and gaps between the words would be lying to them .?

( the unguided random events in the supposed mutational process that caused speciation is teaching the billion monkey example as fact based science )..but in our experience codes and information don’t by chance form by themselves , and would you be able to open a bike lock by chance with 26 rollers .

If we teach children that by our intelligent and scientific objective observations its apparant the physical world which operates most definitely according to fixed laws and is highly ordered , then we would be teaching truth ……and as Sir Fred Hoyle said ” it looks apparent someone has monkeyed with the universe,” teaching logical truth using scientific rationale , is the Vedic way .

Why is it we allow our children to be so cheated in the 21st century, particularly when modern scientific methods that peer into the microbial world see things so clearly .
Do we live in a world of the cheaters and the cheated , as Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami once said .
Importantly, if one’s main calculations are skew whiff every other calculations will be , after all 1+1=1 , if we calculate 1+1=3, every other mathematical calculation will be incorrect .The importance of getting scientific observations correct are imperative, the whole world veiw and one’s very existence can be dominated , the Darwinian world led by scientific materialism has huge implications for how we run the world or treat the people and creatures who live with us , priorities are different, the human is not a sophisticated animal the Vedas says .

Maya Sakti is one of the energies of the Lord , its an energy that entraps the self seeking souls, but not the spiritual self , rather the selfish self who in one way or another wants to take a stand of being an independent enjoyer .He is actually a theif because the energies he seeks to enjoy dont belong to him . The original proprietor and the original enjoyer gives a spectacular display of full enjoyment and is most capable of fully satifying all others , sharing enjoyment with the utmost care , unlimited capabilites and a fully open heart are permanently on show .
Taking the position of God , who shares His life fully with others, is foolhardy and absolutely impossible. Those who presume to take that artificial position automatically find themselves within the Maya Sakti and become completely lost to truth and within ignorance , i.e., ignoring God .
Srila Jiva Goswami in His Bhagavat Sandarbha discusses the Maya Sakti and also the superior Svarupa Sakti within which the illusion is finally broken and bliss in every relationship which increases exponentially with no limit can be arrived at

Re waves and particles and the dual energies of atoms …
The Vedas would say .. something along these lines ….(.3rd Canto of the Bhagavatam , AC Bhaktivedanta Swami says , the connections between desire , actions and actuality should be deeply studies scientifically certainly Bohr and Schrödinger did , they are said to have been interested in Vedic texts . )

The Vedas remind us in the Bramha Samita that the material energies are situated and devolved from the light of the Bramhajyoti .
As the observer of matter , it’s not just your observation but the way you observe , the observer is entangled by his or her subtle energies affected by the past and present observations . Observations come along with contemplations as well as the willingness to act, and the body provides the powers of actions .Those actions are to determine how the wave like or particle like atoms become the actual defined particle form of a future , as such alloted atoms are bestowed they bring the compounds and elements you are meant for and wished for or worked for . This is Ai on a universal scale , but just as Ai has a programming team , and so to your destined life

Material matrix, and universal affairs

The never-ending cycles of a material matrix and the  universal dreams

Einstein spoke of the space time continuum.  This parallels the Vedic scientific truths of the consequences of a jiva within the total material energies along with a free will , or a free wont , free wont means one controls the demands of the mind and senses. And leads a disciplined life .

The past is affecting  the present , and  the present will  affect the future and the  curiously the past at times .

Ultimately, it’s said in the Vedas that the artificial independent life of a jiva , who in reality is completely dependent on Divinity for everything , and is  being awarded and given  sanction by Divinity for everything they do . This power to act  or restrictions are calculated according to previous interactions within the individuals universal affairs . Indeed Divinity Himself has to give the impetus and intelligence for the jiva to enter into the individuals tiny artificial material life . Every id happening under the watch of the supersoul,  such are the complexities of the material matrix , Divinity Himself has to demonstrate to the living beings and give them examples , directly or indirectly of how to utilise life and become an independent enjoyer . First Divinity acts , first Divinity sees , through His unlimited expansions,  then the entity picks up inspiration and follows .

So, the multidimensional space time entanglements are first enacted by Divinity , this is elaborated upon by Srila Jiva Goswami in his Bhagavat Sandarbha,  with that in mind and considering  what Shakespeare said ,” life is like a stage , we are actors ,”  who is to say that , the 1920s 1930s 1940s 1950s  and all of  those  inconsequential activities that took place , inconsequential when compared to the eternal energies , are not constantly  being played out somewhere within the multidimensional universes . After all, how many planets are in our universe, and according to the Vedas,  there are countless universes .

The inconceivable energies and consciousness of Divinity have to be accepted as a reality before one can progress in knowledge of Divinity and His workings , one has to admit one is firmly in the grips of His energies…The Darwinian hypothesis has to be shed …Everything is happening by the supreme desire of Divinity

Sometimes subjective scientific materialism or subjective Darwinian hypothesis pose themselves as something credible and factual . However in the face of an objective reality, that is especially now being demonstrated by new objective scientific progress that utilises modern technologies, like for example peering into one individual cell , at that point inferior subjective speculations that have in the past been presented as facts are shown for what they are .  The subjective scientific ” facts ” are no longer able to distort  self evident truths , rather, those that use illusion and speculation to destroy truth become destroyed .
Srimad Bhagavatam points this out here….

“As the darkness of snow on a dark night and the light of a glowworm in the light of day have no value, the mystic power of an inferior person who tries to use it against a person of great power is unable to accomplish anything; instead, the power of that inferior person is diminished.”
10.13.45 .
Purport
When one wants to supersede a superior power, one’s own inferior power becomes ludicrous. Just as a glowworm in the daytime and snow at night have no value .

End .

Srila Jiva Goswami also discusses in his Tattva Sandarbha how a truth supersedes something inferior.

Truth leads to knowledge.

Within each community, you find a community within that specific community and another within that community and a community within that community . In fact, there are communities within communities ad infinitum . When one is conscious of speciation in all their capacities and their communities within other communities, the full picture can be understood,  life and consciousness is everywhere are being facilitated by a facilitator
The supreme personality of Godhead is fully conscious of each community and as well each individual of those communities.
This he discussed in Bhagavad Gita 13.3
The saints see equally all beings and see the relevance and importance of all communities .
Thus in Vedic Cultures only a person in knowledge can guide and direct societies not those in ignorance, who ignore the importance of all communities ,  there is a purpose to all community and there is an origin of all community.
The Srimad Bhagavatam tells all

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur was a magistrate who worked for the British Raja for some time in his life during the later part of the 19th century. He  was also a  prolific writer and philosopher  in his youthful days . As he grew older, he became more and more drawn to the teachings of Gaudia Vaisnavism and particularly the conclusions that were  presented by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Mahaprabhu brought new insights into the mysterious and wonderful lives of the Gopies of Vrndavana and  revealed to the world the supreme position of Srimati Radharani.

At first, Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur was puzzled about the great Caitanya Mahāprabhu,  who was known to be a great scholar and Pandit, He was  most definitely a first-class scholar who could, for instance, explain the Srimad Bhagavatam Atmarama verse in 108 ways which astounded all the Vedic intelligentsia. The Thakur thought it , at least initially strange that later in Mahāprabhu’s life , He had  became so  absorbed in meditations and pastimes of Lord Krishna in Vrndavana, those of Sri Sri  Radha Krishna which appeared , at least  externally as being quite  immoral , Srila BR Sridhar Swami tells us .

Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja , the son of Srila Bhaktivinod , himself was once was questioned  by Lord Suthers  , who was a British government minister  in the early part of the 20th century . Lord Suthers made the point in a question, ” That your Lord Krishna appears to be quite immoral. How is it that He is worshipped as God ? ”  Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja gave the perfect answer ……that Lord Krishna’s activities in Vrndavana were a display of the highest morality.

There are two verses in the Srimad Bhagavatam scriptures that need understanding in depth along with their  purpose . When one is able , after much  practice of devotional life and by the causeless mercy of a devotee of Sri Caitanya , understand these two verses  the mysterious nature of Gaudia Vaisnavism may  open up .

First verse is …

CC Madhyama 11.8

niṣkiñcanasya bhagavad-bhajanonmukhasya
pāraṁ paraṁ jigamiṣor bhava-sāgarasya
sandarśanaṁ viṣayiṇām atha yoṣitāṁ ca
hā hanta hanta viṣa-bhakṣaṇato ’py asādhu

Translation

Greatly lamenting, the Lord then informed Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya, “ ‘Alas, for a person who is seriously desiring to cross the material ocean and engage in the transcendental loving service of the Lord without material motives, seeing a materialist engaged in sense gratification or seeing a woman who is similarly interested is more abominable than drinking poison willingly.’ ”

Then .

ŚB 10.33.39

vikrīḍitaṁ vraja-vadhūbhir idaṁ ca viṣṇoḥ
śraddhānvito ’nuśṛṇuyād atha varṇayed yaḥ
bhaktiṁ parāṁ bhagavati pratilabhya kāmaṁ
hṛd-rogam āśv apahinoty acireṇa dhīraḥ

Translation

Anyone who faithfully hears or describes the Lord’s playful affairs with the young gopīs of Vṛndāvana will attain the Lord’s pure devotional service. Thus, he will quickly become sober and conquer lust, the disease of the heart.

One should consult the mature Gaudia Vaisnava about these two verses and their mysteries and how the two verses can be reconciled.

It is a fact in current times liberalism has run wild , so practically speaking, how can one properly practice spiritual life in the Western world.

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Goswami Maharaja gave several instructions. He would say all the beautiful ladies who are most definitely very attractive in this world have temporarily borrowed plumes from a higher realm  that in this world time eradicates . Such a reflection of an eternal reality finds its perfection in a spiritual plane only .

Ultimately, the Srimad Bhagavatam teaches us  in spiritual life, there are  no voids  but rather everything there  is full of beauty and spiritual varigatedness and that Krishna is  the Supreme Autocrat and He  unlimitedly shares  trancendental bliss and beauty in unlimitedly in numerous ways.

If you go walking in the countryside today you are unlikely to hear many birds,  as the  proverbial saying  goes ” not a dickie bird ” or hardly any .

What happened to the greenfinch,  the chaffinch,  the skylark , the woodpecker,  the swifts and swallow,  the blackbird or the song thrush.

Do the governments  care , do the global conglomerates care , does anyone even think its a problem,  after all as long as we have our mobile phones and our  internet connections the world can go to hell ,and if people are being killed in wars …Well as long as its not on our doorstep.

The fools vote in fools , the intelligent select good leadership,  what does the current state of the world say for our education system?

Time to educate , but education based on objective science and the working  of mind , matter and consciousness.

The Darwinian and scientific materialism education systems fail the world, as does extremists who assume they understand the theological teachings of their set religions .

The real Intelligentsia should be sought , who understands  self-evident truths , once one knows one thing well, everything is known .

Bhagavad Gita is a training manual for the consciousness…

The Vedic therapeutic paths to perfect life .
Are all described in the Bhagavad Gita as it is .
Krishna is the greatest of psychological Proffesors , and the material world is the great training ground . There is a flavour of perfection in everything. The reflection always shows something of reality.
AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada explains all in his explanations , specifically targeted at the Western audience.

Understanding and loving God and thus all of His creation and His parts and parcels is needed .

If you want to see God, you must have no other interest other than God . If you have other interests, you’ll see only His illusory energies.
Love works like that , a person in deep deep love cannot think of anything other than his or her lover .
When the mother sees the tiny slippers of her child , she immediately feels love in her heart .
The Srimad Bhagavatam gives an extremely thorough explanation of what love

A curious state of affairs……

“Many American Christians, particularly evangelicals, strongly support Israel due to a combination of religious beliefs, perceived fulfillment of biblical prophecy, and strategic geopolitical considerations. This support is often rooted in Christian Zionism, which links the existence of the modern state of Israel with the second coming of Jesus Christ. “
“Judaism does not accept Jesus Christ as a representative of God, the Messiah, or the Son of God. Jews believe in the absolute unity and singularity of God, and consider the Christian concept of the Trinity and Jesus’ divinity to be a form of idolatry, which is forbidden in Judaism. Additionally, Jewish eschatology, which outlines the characteristics of the Messiah and the Messianic Age, has not been fulfilled by Jesus according to Jewish interpretation. “

“Yet , according to the Gospels, it was Jewish religious leaders, specifically the chief priests and elders, who initially brought Jesus to the Roman authorities, specifically Pontius Pilate, and requested his crucifixion. They did this because they viewed Jesus as a threat to their religious authority and social order.
Here’s a more detailed explanation:
Jewish Leaders’ Concerns:
The Jewish leaders, particularly the high priest Caiaphas and the Sanhedrin, believed Jesus was blaspheming by claiming to be the Son of God and challenging their authority. They also feared that his popularity could lead to unrest and potentially provoke a Roman crackdown.
Denunciation to Pilate:
The Jewish leaders, including the chief priests and elders, handed Jesus over to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, and accused him of claiming to be “King of the Jews,” which was a direct challenge to Roman authority.
Roman Involvement:
While the Jewish leaders initiated the process, it was Pilate who ultimately had the authority to order Jesus’s crucifixion. He initially tried to avoid the decision, but under pressure from the crowd (incited by the Jewish leaders), he ultimately condemned Jesus to death.”
“The Rabbis did not use specific Old Testament passages to put Jesus to death. Instead, they are believed to have used passages from the Hebrew Bible to justify their condemnation of Jesus, primarily focusing on accusations of blasphemy and false prophecy.”

It was Jesus Christ who was handed over to the Roman governor by the religious establishment at the time , those who could not understand the truths he was speaking, “old establishment ” is a problem throughout history , those priest desperately looked through their scriptures and gave fake and twisted interpretations to their followers and the Roman governments , and demanded the death of Jesus .

Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja also established Gaudia Vaisnavism and within Vrndavana itself , and many of the establishment, either in their methods and interpretaion of how to conduct Bhajan , particuarly one’s personal life standards , were challenged by Srila Bhaktisiddanta . He also pointed out their incorrectly interpreting how Varna Ashram should be applied , it in reality should be based on someone’s quality, not birth , thus, social and spiritual mobility is key to understanding Varna Ashram.
Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja had rocks thrown at him and his followers, and in different parts of India, his life was threatened.
Truth is hard to bear for old establishments or those who have demonic tendencies , but who Mahaprabhu has come to give benedictions to
