Every part of what we call nature , i.e. chemistry,  biology,  physics, quantum physics,  atoms,  compounds, elements,  light and radiation along with electromagnetism, are  interdependent and reactionary with another part of the whole , yet  at the same time each exhibition of nature is also complete in itself .The more the scientific community looks at nature, the more it reveals its complexity yet simplicity. The die-hard Darwinians and those following scientific materialism and its denial policy can’t quite yet bring themselves to the conclusions objective sciences are  taking them . However, in the Bhagavad, Gita Krishna says, ” Foolish persons think I am like themselves  and when they think of God they compare Him to themselves “

But can we compare Einstein, Bohr, or Richard Feynman to ordinary persons . Exhibited intelligence of every kind is on full display and in all species. The weaver bird is a first-class engineer and designer. Krishna, in His Bhagavad Gita, says what we see in nature of the universe is simply a spark of His splendour. Krishna, in the form of Maha Visnu, has spontaneously and immediately thought and immediately manifested every detail of every aspect of nature from the microbial to the planets and galaxies that surround our tiny planet , He has not sat af a desk puzzling for millions of years and finally come up with a working plan .

Now, although some find this incomprehensible,  still , look at the fingerprints of Divinity within nature . An artist ,  musician, or writer has a particular notable style with which they can be detected. One should use common sense and expand one’s thinking capacities , the human can easily do this,  children are very expert at it .

Can an ant understand a satellite,  its purposes and engineering?

But as a human, the supreme engineer says , He is with us  , He is the closest to us  , and interactions take place either directly or indirectly with us  , He is prepared to share anything with us .The ball is in our court , be in denial or start to share ..

The un intelligentsia who are influenced by the lowest modes of nature , passion and ignorance have,  utalising those described in the Vedas as maya prakriti jnana , ( a so called intelligent person who knowledge is stolen by illusion ) these are the so called intelligentsia,  the guru like scientists , these scientific materialism speculative fellows  and as well teachers  of Darwinian hypothesis, are the ruination causes of society.  We have to remember Richard Feynman’s words , ” One can have a pocket full of Phds and still be a complete idiot “.

Certainly, such so-called intellectuals have cheated society in many many ways , they have led them down the proverbial garden path to the life of sophisticated animals . Lucy has the gait of an ape , she is an ape , she is no distant relative,  only in the minds of the cheating scientific community who present guessing as facts to children. Those children grow up to be political leaders and business leaders .Such overly influenced and unthinking leaders set policy and standards for society.

They are clueless about consciousness or the influences of the degrading modes of ignorance and passion that degrade the consciousness,  so much so that our leaders and political classes allow children and adults alike to be exposed to promiscuous life styles,  and children are exposed to nudity and porn . These degrading policies are in place because of scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis . There is a distinct lack of ethics , morality and sensitivity in leadership,  they are literally sophisticated and ruthless animals, who have no sense of consciousness,  philosophy, or the  psychological effects of woke libertine cultures,  that are based on scientific materialism .

They think that following neurons in the brain is freedom , however neuron firing changes when an addicted libertine takes hold of life and begins a life of regulations that lead to a peaceful happy state of mind , unlike street dogs agitated for sex and prepared to have sex at any time at any place and with any old dog that comes along .There is a vast difference between glass and diamonds . Superior cultures bring diamond like consciousness and pleasure,  inferia cultures based on bodily demands are glass , they appear like diamonds to fools .

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has left us many teaching through His activities,  dealings, and conversations . He was the original Acarya who taught by example . These verses of the Siksastakam are His teachings summarised and in one format,  and His conversation with Ramananda Roy brings more details as to how to perfect the Bhakti yoga process .

His verses..

Glory to the Sri-Krsna-Sankirtana, which cleanses the heart of all the dust accumulated for years and extinguishes the fire of conditional life, of repeated birth and death. This sankirtana movement is the prime benediction for humanity at large because it spreads the rays of the benediction moon. It is the life of all transcendental knowledge. It increases the ocean of transcendental bliss, and it enables us to fully taste the nectar for which we are always anxious 
O my Lord, Your holy name alone can render all benediction to living beings, and thus You have hundreds and millions of names, like Krsna and Govinda. In these transcendental names You have invested all Your transcendental energies. There are not even hard and fast rules for chanting these names. O my Lord, out of kindness You enable us to easily approach You by Your holy names, but I am so unfortunate that I have no attraction for them.

One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige, and should be ready to offer all respect to others. In such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of the Lord constantly.
O almighty Lord, I have no desire to accumulate wealth, nor do I desire beautiful women nor do I want any number of followers. I only want Your causeless devotional service, birth after birth.
O son of Maharaja Nanda (Krsna), I am Your eternal servitor, yet somehow or other I have fallen into the ocean of birth and death. Please pick me up from this ocean of death and place me as one of the atoms at Your lotus feet.
O my Lord, when will my eyes be decorated with tears of love flowing constantly when I chant Your holy name? When will my voice choke up, and when will the hairs of my body stand on end at the recitation of Your name?
O Govinda! Feeling Your separations I am considering a moment to be like twelve years or more. Tears are flowing from my eyes like torrents of rain, and I am feeling all vacant in the world in Your absence.

I know no one but Krsna as my Lord, and He shall remain so even if He handles me roughly by His embrace or makes me brokenhearted by not being present before me. He is completely free to do anything and everything, for He is always my worshipful Lord, unconditionally.

More on this later .

Apart from the conversation with Ramananda Roy ,where Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu gets Ramananda Roy to reveal the Glories of Srimati Radharani ,  and in the last verse of Śikṣāṣṭaka, where Mahāprabhu indirectly Glorifies Her , are there any other examples of Caitanya Mahāprabhu personally glorifying Srimati Radharani…

Something that came to me ..and the reason why the Hare Krsna maha-mantra is not directly mentioned in the Caitanya Caratamrita .
Srila Rupa Goswami and our acaryas have taken that ancient Maha mantra , and via Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu have enthused the names with Radha Krishna nitya lila .and Madurya rasa as well as Parakiya and the other Rasas of Sri Vrndavana Dharma. The maha-mantra means Radha Krishna,  both Radharani and Krishna are prayed to and served , Mahāprabhu in the mood of Radharani would chant Hari and other names of the Lord .
Why is Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu not directly glorifying Srimati Radharani? because He is predominantly in the mood of Radharani, and it would be like Srimati Radharani glorifying Herself…Something She would never do …

Ai pulls up these examples from Sastra.

Apart from the famous conversation with Ramananda Roy and the 8th verse of the Śikṣāṣṭaka, Caitanya Mahāprabhu does personally glorify Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī in several other places. Since Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Kṛṣṇa in the mood of Rādhā, most of His direct glorification comes out when He’s in bhāva as Rādhā Herself.

Here are the key examples:

1. In His prayers and lamentations at Gambhīrā, Jagannātha Purī
Caitanya Mahāprabhu spent 18 years in seclusion at the Gambhīrā. Biographers like Murāri Gupta, Svarūpa Dāmodara, and Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja record that He would constantly pray in Rādhā’s mood.

• “Rādhā-kṛṣṇa-praṇaya-vikṛtir…” — the opening verse of Caitanya-caritāmṛta. Though written by Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja, it states this is Mahāprabhu’s own understanding: He appeared to taste the sweetness of Rādhā’s love and to glorify Her greatness. So His whole incarnation is framed as glorification of Rādhā.
• Verses in Caitanya-caritāmṛta Madhya 14 & 15: When Mahāprabhu hears kīrtan of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa pastimes, He breaks into states describing Rādhā’s unique love. E.g. He says Rādhā’s prema is the highest, that Kṛṣṇa Himself cannot understand it without becoming Rādhā. This is direct glorification of Her mahābhāva.

2. In conversation with Svarūpa Dāmodara and Rāmānanda Rāya
Beyond the initial Rāya Rāmānanda dialogue, Mahāprabhu repeatedly asked them to sing verses glorifying Rādhā’s prema. He would weep and say no one can understand Rādhā except Kṛṣṇa Himself, and Kṛṣṇa can’t understand Her without taking Her position — which is why He came as Caitanya.

3. In the Śikṣāṣṭaka context
While verse 8 is indirect, the entire Śikṣāṣṭaka is spoken in the mood of Rādhā in separation. Verse 7: “yugāyitaṁ nimeṣeṇa…” is Rādhā’s feeling of separation from Kṛṣṇa. So the whole set is Mahāprabhu glorifying Rādhā by embodying Her mood.

4. In the Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta and other songs He relished
Mahāprabhu had Svarūpa Dāmodara read to Him texts like Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta by Bilvamaṅgala, which are saturated with Rādhā’s glories. He would go into ecstasy and explain how those verses reveal Rādhā’s superiority in mādhurya-rasa.

Core point in Gaudiya theology:
Caitanya Mahāprabhu rarely glorifies Rādhā using His “Kṛṣṇa” identity, because He came as Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa combined. His glorification of Rādhā is most fully expressed by becoming Her and tasting Her mood. That’s why Rāmānanda Rāya had to draw it out of Him — Mahāprabhu in Kṛṣṇa’s form is reticent, but in Rādhā’s mood He overflows with Her glories.

It appears that in Glorifying, Krishna, in the mood of Radharani,  Mahāprabhu is also , of course, even more so , i Glorifying Srimati Radharani .

Mahāprabhu has come to pay back the overwhelming love of Srimati Radharani, and her mood reveals Her glory.

The liberation of the Bhattacarya Madhya lila chapter 6 .

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu continued, “When the Supreme Personality of Godhead wished to become many, He glanced over the material energy. Before the creation there were no mundane eyes or mind; therefore the transcendental nature of the Absolute Truth’s mind and eyes is confirmed.

Purport

In the Chāndogya Upaniṣad (6.2.3), it is said, tad aikṣata bahu syāṁ prajāyeya. This statement confirms the fact that when the Supreme Personality of Godhead wishes to become many, the cosmic manifestation arises simply by His glancing over material energy. It may be noted that the Supreme Lord glanced over the material nature before the creation of this cosmic manifestation. Before the creation there were no material minds or material eyes; therefore the mind by which the Supreme Personality of Godhead desired to create is transcendental, and the eyes with which He glanced over material nature are also transcendental. Thus the Lord’s mind, eyes and other senses are all transcendental.

End of purport ..Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

One could well ask oneself the origins of the living beings. This purpose describes the living beings receiving material bodies, and the glance appears to award material bodies that give the impression that living beings have become many independent enjoyers .However,  before the glance spoken about,  where did they come from ? There are records in the Vedas of cyclic glances , during the creation , maintenance and destructions of universes .One can further consider before the cyclic cycles,  where did the jiva come from , Maha Sankarsana and Mula Sankarsana should be referenced as well as the brahman effulgence. Lord Balarama is the originator of the expansions of the Jivas , and Balarama is the first expansion of Krishna,  and Maha Visnu is an expansion of Maha Sankarsana. Maha Visnu is serving a purpose to fulfil the desire of some living beings,  who do not want to , or do not feel ,at least yet , a spontaneous attraction to associate in love with Krishna and His friends lovers and family.

The learners come to the material atmosphere,  others hover in an indecisive state in Brahman , one might say ..

Religion is an aftermath….of life’s arrival…says Dawkins and Cronin , they think they,  as leaders of scientific communities ,  that its their job to present themselves as authorities of real knowledge . However,  when the real intelligensia push them harder on the sciences they present,  they admit and submit …that they just don’t know how life or consciousness came about .

Dawkins and Cronin have been taught since childhood ,  and  throughout all their educational experiences , it has been by teachers and other PHD. profs,  I.e . other speculative thinkers who have dishonestly presented guesses as fact based sciences . Walk into the natural history museum in London. What’s the first thing endless school  children see on pre arranged school tours , apes turning into men .Indoctrination from childhood. The natural history museum even looks like a church in its construction . Cheating on all levels

Dualism is real and it’s a  self-evident truth , it can not be denied. Only those deliberately keeping themselves in darkness try to . Dawkins tells his students to ignore what appears as design in the world ,” close your eyes and intelligence to it,” he effectively says .
Consciousness in objective terms is to be accepted as a phenomenon different from matter , it needs examining.
Thus theological cultures , using teleological arguments present the natural conclusion that any origin of consciousness , namely God , would have the responsibility to cater for both free will along  with deterministic outcome .

Both the atheistic and theistic need satisfying . Educational experiences for every  wondering particle of consciousness , who find themselves enclosed in matter ,  and having to deal with all the consequences that brings  , need catering for , and if Divinity did not do so , that would be cruel , but He must do so without too much disturbances to the outright atheistic.
In reality,  there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever molecules themselves move towards life , in fact, the chemistry behind molecules are so inconceivably complicated in their own right , ask a synthetic chemist how chemical evolution is fake propaganda that carries no evidence.  All evidence , in sciences,  points to dualism , when consciousness enters matter, information systems accompany it . Matter and consciousness are two different substances, first consciousness comes, and only then informational systems that organise and structure matter will ” self organise ” Superior engineering from beginning to end of the machine like body points logically to an engineer , but  an engineer beyond our comprehension .  The more we look into the microbial world the more we see  even more sophisticated engineering.
Those advocates who sing the glory of scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis only continue to fool themselves and try to take their brand to the truely unthinking . Best to study objective sciences and bypass subjective guessing that claims to be objective science..

How to know who is who in religious circles..?

If we find violence and hatred …this means the theologians and their religious representatives are clueless and not representing God , quite the opposite.
Actually theological cultures of every kind have the systematic processes of gradual development of knowledge of mind , matter and consciousness that leads to pure consciousness..in all religions there are first  class, second class and third  class followers.
If anything is presented fanatically with hatred and intolerance, it’s because it’s being presented by third class unthinking followers…who have little realisation of God .
One should seek first  class followers who understand God consciousness and the varied plights of the conditioned souls , and who can give a particular  path  suitable for their state of consciousness,  and thus gradually free them from their lower speculative tendencies .
Practical applications within theological cultures are well understood by the first  class representatives .Heaven and Hell preaching is a sign of a third class devotee.
In any religion, first class representatives should be sought , and every scripture will tell them clearly their symptoms .common sense is required .

Some members of the Gaudia Vaisnava movements may misunderstand the purpose of the Harinama Sankirtana movement. Although it is perfectly clear when one examines the life of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His practical examples of establishing Krishna consciousness,  everything is summarised in His conversations with Ramananda Roy. The glorification of the six Goswami’s in prayers led by their disciples also makes it clear how Krishna consciousness incorporates everything.

Here, Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada makes it clear .

Reporter: Thank you very much. Well, the first point is, people are used to seeing that your Hare Kṛṣṇa movement is completely out of life and doesn’t take any interest into the real life, materialistic, you know. So… But I think it’s a mistake, perhaps. It’s a mistake. And I’ve heard about that…

Yogeśvara: [French—asks if he would prefer to speak in French]

Reporter: [French]

Yogeśvara: Ah, oui?

Reporter: Oui. I’ve heard that it’s a mistake. And your movement, your consciousness of Kṛṣṇa, engloves…, takes all the direction of economics and political possibility.

Prabhupāda: Yes, yes.

Reporter: Can you speak, explain me about that?

Prabhupāda: Yes. Our aim is realization of God.

Reporter: Yes.

Yogeśvara: [French = Would you like a translation?]

Reporter: Oui.

Yogeśvara: [from this point Yogeśvara translates some of the dialogue]

Prabhupāda: And to get help for this realization we are concerned with everything. Naturally, politics, economics, science, art, philosophy—everything is included. And that is the perfection of all other subject matter. Everything has got an objective. So any of these departmental knowledge, namely politics, economics, art, science, philosophy, religion…, art, science, philosophy, religion, everything should be aimed to achieve this end, God realization.

Further,  this is a letter Prabhupada sent in 1951.

Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami’s advice in 1951 …..

Letter to: R. Prakash
Dated: June 22nd 1951

The medicine is administered through submissive aural channel as “Hari Sankirtana” which means

(1) To sing “Bhajan” songs glorifying the Almighty and His Pastimes.

(2) To preach the teachings of Bhagavad-gita, Bhagavata, Ramayana, life of such saints as Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Tulsidas etc.

(3) To establish the philosophy of devotional life as against fruitful action or dry speculation of empiric philosophy and meet the opposite elements with all logical weapons. i.e the medicine of “Hari Sankirtana” is administered by threefold action, namely by (a) melodious songs (b) by propaganda through press and (c) by propaganda on platforms.

Systematic preaching in all areas of society on every topic can be presented as well as the path of progression of Krishna consciousness in ones own personal life , nothing should be excluded if one is actually a followers of the Gaudia Vaisnava movements founded by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

Definitely, there is a cause of all causes , including the diversity that examines the cause of all cause , that brings forth religions and philisophical thought and sciences. The cause of all cause even causes the different arguments that arise from trying to understand how He is the cause of all causes , thus, He is perfectly complete in everything.

Much more on these points tomorrow..

Stephen Hawkins thought towards the end of his life that the universe just popped out of some random quantum and  unspecified field, so perhaps consciousness too had occurred in a similar fashion.
Universes and consciousness could have  just popped out of any specific point , atoms and energies are surrounding us, he thought , and actually, “we dont know their origins or what they are capable of ” .  He speculated in these ways. The scientific materialism disciples have to ignore the precision and precise universe ,that is objectively seen to exhibit perfect math and symmetry. ” A God ” ,say the atheistic Darwinian or follower of scientific materialism , that’s ” impossible “ curious conclusions  , Richard Dawkins tells his students to ignore any ” appearance of design ”
The late and great Sadaputa prabhu joked  about this, saying, ” Here is a point , and here is another point and here another, which one did the universe or consciousness pop out of “
Of course, in Vedic terms , indeed, Krishna who originated the universe and the individual particles of consciousness,  is within every atom .However,  He is also outside the atom .He is near but far , inside and outside , very small but universally gigantic.  Everything stems from one source , the cause of all causes has multifarious energies at his disposal.  He , we can say, is the supreme ” point ” of everything in more ways than one .

Cern ….and the chasing  of particles …..

The Vedas would indicate that Higgs Boson is just the beginning of a series of smaller and smaller  particles that lead to an ethereal plane . The subtle energies have an inherant connection to every kind of matter, and such ethereal energies originate with a transformation of sound. Sound means something something has occurred, or someone is making sound and sound can and often means a command .  Consciousness in conditioned life is attracted to  and simultaneously attached to matter , in one sense, it’s the cause of conditioned life , an attraction serves as a cause of a series of events . God does not manifest matter for his pleasure ,  it’s for our independence from him , its us that desire to be an artificial supreme enjoyer,  in imitation,  however an enjoyer must be able to bring everyone enjoyment , we cant , in fact in our enjoyment we make others suffer .Krishna creates and does so because we desire to live separately from Him . Krishna’s responsive universe makes all arrangements , ultimately everything in every detail is stemming from Him , the cause of all causes, mind, matter, etc etc , He sees and hears first , then we can see and hear  . The Srimad Bhagavatam 1.1.1 describes everything in one statement. Look it up .

Socialism in every respect is the Vedic way , a system of governance that produces social and spiritual mobility based on the self-evident truth of the equality of all beings and their individual rights . The Vedic intelligentsia see to it that education and opportunities are readily available,  the highly cultured share their good fortune. At times in every culture the intelligentsia are challenged by those of lower grade consciousness,  but the best of men and ladies must be educators because the best of the best of life’s opportunities must be taught in society to everyone.  Lower consciousness and lower lifestyles can be facilitated but carefully administered .
The Vedas covers all practical topics in life , for instance,  it allows for honest, free market economics that are  primarily locally based , with only essentials needs imported .The Vedas encourage countries to depend on themselves,  not interferences from other nations, so one looses independence.
Capitalism is sold as free market economics but is not so , monopolies are the global conglomerates strategy , they want everyone to depend on them .Their narratives are cheating the public and other leaders of countries. They say that their capitalism is creating wealth for all the world and lifting it out of poverty , quite the opposite. Truth is, nature provides everything for every creature , every one is fed , clothed, and housed and live happily when they remain closely aligned to natures ways and relying on localised economies and localised workforces, 

Worldwide trading has become so ludicrous that someone in the UK exports popcorn to the USA .  A person buying his bread in the UK has it brought by a  lorry hundreds of miles away  from his hometown , and the wheat is imported from a country thousands of miles away . The major financial systems have become far too centralised and monopolised . The stock and currency markets, as well as worldwide commodities market and currency markets, have been designed to suit a few insiders and are clearly currupt. The world is so very, very far from free markets . Central government allows light touch regulations ,  and plenty of instant internet trading goes on with shares rising or falling in micro seconds. For those who actually monopolise such markets, they are doing very nicely, thank you . They effectively have centralised capitalism and  world wide financial industries working with unintelligent governments  control Capitalism lock stock and barrel. This currupt system has been sold as the idea  greed is good and that the benefits of greed will trickle down to everyone all over the world. The reality is entirely different . Such ruthless capitalism benefits the most greedy of persons at the cost of the environment , it  causes unfair trade deals , it causes poverty and wars with every country fighting over limited resources that will inevitably run dry in no time.  Such unfortunate worldwide situations are instigated by the capitalist and their political freinds , who they sponsor. Currently, these demons are desperate for precious minerals and precious earth , essential for computer science.
The unthinking capitalists should never have a free run and have any influence in politics. Rather, the Vedic societies were thankful for money makers who built economies, but they were  legislated against , when encroachments  were seen to be happening in any circumstances immediately it was halted .
The communist idea was utilised in Vedic culture but in the sense of the equality of all beings , and the truth that ultimately everything is the property of God , and needs to be used in harmonious ways , but at the same time ownership was encouraged along with sensitivities and care , greed and encroachment were a no no .
