  • Beam me up Scotti

    Jun 18th, 2025

    “Beam me up Scotti “

    “Beam me up, Scotti.”
    Famously expressed by Captain Kirk whilst on a planet and awaiting transportation back to the star ship Enterprise hovering in space above .
    It’s, of course, actually based on contrived scientific materialism , that we are simply combinations of  atoms and elements and it would be possible at will to break them all  down , move them in a light beam , and reconstitute them in perfect order at  another place . Certainly matter could be thought of in that , but our  consciousness? The vedic understanding of dualism must be understood : is consciousness neurons firing in a brain or something more mysterious?
    Factually, according to the Vedas ,  our  consciousness has the ability to transport itself instantly to destinations in many  other planets or other  places  , in fact, death means just that . The gross external body is left behind , it is made of atoms , elements , and compounds . But even before death by training oneself in astanga yoga , the consciousness can travel in a different type of body and  instantaneously faster than light , this occurs whilst the gross body remains where it is , only to be entered into on return of the subtle traveller . This feeling may be somewhat familiar because in dreams, one is lifted out the body,  the body is totally forgotten , and some people feel themselves ascending or decending from their bodies and back into their bodies.

    The Darwinians and those who profess to understand life are only  subjective thinkers , in reality, they  are clueless about consciousness,  that is a fact no one can deny .
    Easy journey to other planets should be read by AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada , for those wishing to temporarily or permanently traverse the universe and beyond .

    The Vedas contains many, many  examples of space travel as well as descriptions of all kinds of space ships and so-called aliens . There are, after all, 400,000 different ” humanoids ” recorded in the Vedas

  • Gaudia Vaisnavism and its  distribution

    Jun 18th, 2025

    Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur particularly wanted to bring Vedic culture in all  of its aspects to modernity . In current times the cream of the Vedas  in the form of the Srila Bhagavatam as well as Caitanya Caratamrita that are the essence of the Gaudia Vaisnava conclusions  taught by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu to the Goswami’s of Vrndavana , are presented by ISKCON and other Gaudia Vaisnava all over the world. It was Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada who brought them to the shores of ,  in 1965 . Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur had prayed for a son who could continue and expand his  desire to  establish Krishna consciousness and specifically the Raga Marg of the  residents of Vrndavana where everyone is ultimately under the service of Srimati Radharani in one way or another in giving all pleasure to Krishna. Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja appeared as the son of Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur who served his fathers trancendental desires. He extensively reintroduced Gaudia Vaisnavism in bone fide ways within India , correcting the many  misunderstandings . His two leading disciples who specialise in presenting Krishna consciousness scientifically , philosophically, and culturally as well as appropriately to the Western audience are Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada and Srila BR Sridhar Swami . Other prominent disciples also made major contributions. Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada has given the Western world a chance to practically explore the Vedic Culures and examine its many benefits , introducing its unlimited wealth . He was a  most prolific writer and teacher there  is no doubt Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami, who brought , under the orders of his spiritual master , those Gaudia Vaisnava teachings world wide as was original desired by Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja . Its noteworthy to say that when AC Bhaktivedanta Swami left the world , he instructed his disciples that if they had questions about Gaudia Vaisnava tattva they should approach Srila BR Sridhar Swami , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja commented that he was content that Srila BR Sridha Swami had understood everything of his teachings .
    Many other Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas have contributed and are contributing ..Some are  presenting other more esoteric aspects that are required to be delved into by the mature student , the teachings of  Srila Rupa and Ragganatha  Goswami’s

    Both Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami and Srila BR Sridhar Swami could have at any time elaborated  unlimitedly on the deepest aspects of Gaudia teachings and occasionally did so  . Although bringing the whole  of the Western world and helping everyone enter into and understand the Vedic  topics in systematic ways as is  recommended in the Srimad Bhagavatam was their  general approach and, of course, it needed to be.

  • Look for justice,  and you can always find it .

    Jun 17th, 2025

    In Vedic terms , every foreign policy decision by any government worldwide  is very easily measured .
    The Vedas give very clear indications as to what are the correct judgements based on morals ethics and respect for life and limb . The intelligentsia who as best situated to make such  judgements based on multiples of assesement resources , will take into account  variable circumstances . Ultimately, the protection of the innocent is at the forefront of decisions made , clearly, women and children are specifically mentioned in the rules of warfare in the Dhanu Veda .A resetting of injustices that have wrongly affected peoples livelihood and their own cultural and traditional expressions are important and those who intelligently understand ethical geopolitical affairs should be directing international laws along with clear explanations of the reasoning behind decisions .
    I am afraid that in today’s world, the intelligentsia are silenced or suppressed, and the puppet governments of the global conglomerates who easily manipulate the masses have usurped power by posing as democracies.

  • Unscientific,  both the theist and atheistic

    Jun 17th, 2025

    Whenever one goes walking in the countryside, inevitably, you’ll come across dog walkers .  When they stop and chat with each other, it seems the favourite topic is the characters of their dogs .They are either Christian,  Muslim, Jewish, or atheistic, but they all miss the real point . Why ?   They have been spoon-fed, unscientific narratives about the nature of consciousness,  either by their religious leaders of science teachers .

    The fact is clear , the dog has a character,  as much as any individual animal , or  bird , reptilian,  or aquatic etc etc . It’s plane to see . Its self evident,  its logical , and using  one’s rationale, one must follow the conclusion instinctively.

    We have consciousness , we think , feel, and will . So do every  other species of life to varying degees . The religious,  although trying to approach God, must do so not with mere sentiments but with theological scientific knowledge of life . And the so called scientist must understand Dualism,  that a  body mind and consciousness are made up of entirely different energies , that is also self evident.

    Uneducated and uninformed opinions are being paraded by some  religious people as well as  atheistic scientists.

    The reason the dog walkers are speaking about their dogs characters is because,  they too are  havd consciousness along with personality , but their consciousness is passing through the body of a dog , our consciousness is passing through the body of a human .

    But next life ……all change .

    Read Bhagavad Gita as it is AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada explains why.

  • The illuminated vision and enlightened heart

    Jun 16th, 2025

    The transcendent vision

    om tad visno paramam padam sada pasyanti suraya diviva caksuratatam

    This verse indicates that just as the sun rays are extended everywhere, they offer their benedictions , thus, everyone is able to see the world only  by the grace of the sun.

    Similarly, those who are spiritually awake , have special insight , which means , and it’s confirmed in every theological science ,  they see Divinity, who is  situated in everything and in everybody . By coming in touch with them , this widom and insight is transfered into a once dark heart . It is achieved by somebody who is  respectfully inquiring about our world anx purpose and who  has a genuine appreciation for such a wise and  self effulgent person. In so doing , everyone will  receive blessings and well wishes from the pure hearted soul, and the vision of the spiritual saints  hearts  can be easily reflected in our own  hearts .

    In the material world everyone is stricken with subjective opinions , such misconceptions and impressions are carried with us from many many many  lives . We should know the essence of all knowledge is simply how to love God , once one thing is known, everything is known.  It does not take academia or even much study , it just takes humility and an obliging and loving attitude along with  a surrender of the  false understanding of ourselves or our illusioned subjective thinking process

    The essence of knowledge beauty and blissful life can be easily attained , its an uncovering process , beneath all our layers of doubt and misconceptions we will be able to find a spiritual realm . Divinity or Krishna and His associates are forever calling us , we must learn to recognise the call .

    Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has made the whole process very  easy.

    Just chant any name of God , He is absolute , His name and form are identical , and He is fully present there .

    The Hare Krishna Maha Mantra , or any names of God are   spiritually surcharged  and can easily award the highest perfection of understanding of  God , He becomes  your friend,  relative,  master, father , or even your  lover , All names of God carry the callers to specific relationships with Him , along with His associates.

  • Strike the right  balance

    Jun 15th, 2025

    ..It’s a question of  applying  theological and social cultures intelligently to all  individuals in every walk of life and who are  obviously at different stages of their journeys . This approach can offer them and is designed to   take them all to  more elevated consciousness based on the real science of self realisation. One could say mindfulness .That means meaningful authorities giving guidance and protection as a good parent does to the child . Offering everyone balanced and educated choices is the Vedic way ,  currently, for instance, in science, i.e. a  one-sided Darwinian hypothesis  is presented as fact based science to school children . In  reality, thw Darwinion offers a subjective opinion of an  observed  world , a world that looks to all intent and purposes to be highly organised with ridged laws , the kind of things described in theological sciences. The Darwinians philosophy is one life one death . Their perverse science presentation is pummelled into school children they lie  and say  science has proved it . This Darwinian model suits the global conglomerates , they both work hand in hand . These conglomorates are ruining peoples minds and lives , they infiltrate cultures everywhere are sell at any cost . In this libertine cultures children at young as six download free pornography and by the age of twelve half of children have watched pornography.  The real spiritual intelligensia along with decent scholars, know how to guide societies . Political classes must be guided by them , not businessmen .Under their care, appropriate measures can be illuminating to all. Vedic societies were not theocratic but a balanced approach for all societies. Attachments to traditional cultures and family values based on theologies are  found to be  middle ground , but the teachings of objective sciences are crucial.

    The results of super liberalism and cheating science is plane to see , misery , mental health issues , etc etc along with the  destruction of  sociopolitical influences of the wrong type given by leaders who are not advised by the intelligensia but only profit driven businessmen . The Varna Ashram system of the Vedas is a balanced application and takes in all the needs of the people,  the creatures, and the planet itself.

    Extremists have no place , whatever their particular leaning .

  • From another view point ..

    Jun 14th, 2025

    Someone posted the Russell periodic chart from the 1920,’s

    Interesting, you know the Vedas indicates that matter ultimately has its origins in the Brahman effulgence, transforming into one assumes electromagnetic energies and the atomic realms , Bramha Samita 5.40 .
    One could also assume the original source of trancendental impersonal energies are the source also of the temporary and changing minds and intellects, which are electrically driven , ie brain neurons etc etc , the mind is little understood by Western science , although Marie Curie , carried out several experiments on telepathic energies . The Vedas indicate that minds and intellects are a borrowed energy and are accessible to an individual conscious entity who is playing about  in matter . The so called Dark energy and dark matter could be looked at as are other transformations of the original light , and such so called dark energies are forming the basis of the portions of the universes from the other dimensions that are not detected by the conditioned senses of this world.
    We can not see like cats or hear the sound frequency of dogs or whales .
    Lisa Randall, the Harvard Prof, has written on her” brane ” theory…and it’s very. cosmologically Vedic.

  • Love , gratitude , sharing, and relishing.

    Jun 14th, 2025

    Express feelings of gratitude..

    It’s always good and healthy to be grateful.
    By the interventions of Sri Guru , Mahaprabhu, and Nityananda, our Aprarabdha and prarabdha karma are being  dissolved, and everything changes .
    Devotees who engage in assisting ISKCON or any Gaudia Vaisnava branches can be sure  Krishna protects them all  from the influences of the material world and inconveniences due to astrological or karmic influences that inevitably arrive , but these are minimised or nullified.  Krishna also  maintains devotees , the devotees have a lot of special things to think about and meditate on, unlike the fruitive worker who is forever thinking of money , fame , adoration , profit , and distinction . Thus, the sincere devotees are not anxious and are forever grateful to the Lord and His devotees , for their medative lives and spiritual contemplations.

    This mindset can  be applied to any persons who are  genuinely following  theological cultures and who always seek is some way or another to assist others in ways that can bring good fortune . Everyone is entitled to and able to receive good fortune, which comes along  with good sense and good intelligence,  and I don’t mean academics.

    Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has appeared in this world and He displays the good fortune that everyone can take , He appears for external reasons and internal reasons . Similarly the devotees have their external responsibility to assist in helping Mahāprabhu in His external mission,  but they should also  relish internally and understand the depths of the treasure house of Gaudia Vaisnavism , that is essential,  this was  taught  and demonstrated by the Goswami’s of Vrndavana , and as Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja would say Srila Rupa and Srila Ragganatha das Goswamis.

  • When extremists meet extremists

    Jun 13th, 2025

    When extremists meet extremists historically there has always been trouble ahead .
    Israel and Iran are one such current example, both countries are plagued with fanatical and unbalanced scholars in both the theological and political sciences , in that sence, they are not the real Intelligentsia who should be listened to .
    Certainly, the Koran and the Torah, when understood correctly, will define who are the intelligentsia, what are their symptoms, and how they would respect other cultures and nations .
    As the Vedas clearly does , in fact the Vedas purposely contains the eighteen puranas,  which are designed to facilitate various types of conditioned  persons with the aims of gradual education in the science of relationships , and the  need and purpose of a recognition of bone fide  authorities who can bring social inclusion as well as social and spiritual mobility.

    The Srimad Bhagavatam also define the natural barriers that nature has provided physically , emotionally, and intellectually that separate different types of persons within each of the cultures, each perfect in their own ways . Another important point the Vedas emphasis is  that in each and every country and culture there are always found four types of persons,  1, the intelligensia 2, the administrative classes 3, the business classes 4, the tradesmen.

    There is absolutely no need to import persons from other countries,  but rather source people locally for the needs of communities and each nation .

    Globalism and international trade that’s hailed as a game changer to alleviate poverty and increase education is one big piece of fake news generated by the social media by the unthinking and greedy who care nothing but money and temporary artificial power

  • What is sin ?

    Jun 12th, 2025

    What is sin, and is the universal order legislating against it .

    What is sin ?

    Taking something from this material world that is legitimately allotted to you by your karmic synchronicity or fate, according to your social station in life, is not sinful but can be entangleing . Although thoughtful  and careful consideration of our activities should  never be left within the realms of speculations or any  whimsical choices ,  but rather  must be  solely based on a proper understanding of the science of consciousness , i.e ., how consciousness is elevated  or degraded . Information about  the scientific movements of the human psychological self is the  sciences contained fully  in the  Bhagavad Gita and the Srimad Bhagavatam.

    Thus, in Vedic culture, whatever you naturally take or acquire that has been alloted by fate having acted according to specific duties  is perfectly fine , but it’s also recommended certain portions  should be offered back to Divinity or His agents , or in charitable acts , in that way  actions become less entangleing and far more elevating . Although piety is elevating , we should be careful not to neglect something even greater than piety , namely developing a direct relationship to Divinity Himself , that is the perfection of the short time we spend in the current body we find ourselves in .Thus , Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita,  one who sees action in inaction and inaction in action is in knowledge , and everyone should unpack the mysterious nature of that statement.

    Sin is defined , when someone encroaches  on others’ territories or  exploits other persons  for selfish reasons , that will cause harm in many  different ways ,  it can always be defined as  something that goes against morality , ethics , and expected duties . It will always  cause all sorts of  pain to the others . One should know any physical or emotional pain one inflicts will be  alloted back to the perpetrator and with interest . Sinful activities cause greater entanglements,  and we should know all the persons involved are entangleing themselves

    A future will play out with the same actors,  but in  different situations. Pay back begins .

    According to ones station in life and the specific duties associated with it comes different calculations of the degrees of sin and their reaction . An educated man with  social responsibility ,  or a leader role  has to pay a heavy price if he or she performs the wrong actions . The example of a state leader issuing orders for war comes to mind , if women and children are killed or the whole basis of the war is based against the natural moral and international laws , the leader and his country will pay the price as well as the people who gave him the power in the first place .

    Thus, it behoves everyone to understand how to carefully act in this life ,and ultimately how to raise one’s consciousness and awareness.

    This great science of action reactions and the systematic universal responses are discussed fully in Bhagavad Gita.
