One will find in theological texts from every religious culture genealogical tables , why this is so should be understood not in Darwinian terms of course , but rather in terms of how empowered and highly intelligent persons in multiple feilds of knowledge come to this earthly plane . If one understands consciousness as entirely seperate energies from matter and if one understands the consciousness is maturing and developing , in service to humanity , certain pious families can attract such special souls to take birth into their families . These are all the arrangements of Divinity and His agents who have the responsibility to guide and inspire society . So, it is that great souls in many disciplines arrive on earth to render services in varieties of ways , reflecting the good will and intelligence of God . Krishna says in His Bhagavad Gita ,” I am the abilities in mankind “ The Gift of God ,and truely honourable people feel that , this means anyone at any time can receive inspiration and insights from Divinity , He is there , right there in everyones heart . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
It’s said in the Vedas God was one . Then He became two ..Both Male Female.
Many cultures understand the male female aspects.
Feminine masculine Yin yan The lover and the beloved Purusha prakriti Actually , Divinity has become the unlimitedly many as well , which is in order for Him to increasingly exchange mellows of loving relationships in many many varieties of ways a described by Srila Rupa Goswami in his writings . God is known as Rasaraja , the king of exchanges of love, and He is always eager to do so .
But the essence of spiritual emotions and the mellows of trancendental pleasure are found in the ever new and ever increasing blissful loving affairs of the Supreme Divine couple known as Radha Krishna. Hare Krishna means an exchange of love , and Hare is representative of Srimati Radharani.
The Vedas tell us that truth .
But also, there are many other more formal settings that love can be exhibited in . The Vedas describe the relationship of Laxmi Narayana for example, and the Queens of Dwarka .
This can all be researched and understood with the help of Krishna’s devotees.
But in all cases, the ” male and female ” display the greatest of the glory of relationships , such is the supremacy of this type of relationship because it also includes friendship, service attitudes, and to a degree a protective parental care.
These intimate relationships of male females bring exchanges of emotional love and appreciation even in this material world , a little taste of a supreme spiritual reality , but here , unfortunately, old age and death takes it away . In a spiritual realm, this loving mellow is expressed unlimitedly , in ever new ways , with spiritual bodies and spiritual senses. A supreme beauty is forever relished , which is not possible with limited bodies with limited emotional capacities within atoms , compounds, and elements of a material body
Love in real terms means full appreciation for another’s qualities and characteristics and Lord Krishna is forever attracted to the unlimited spiritual qualities of Srimati Radharani and the pleasures She derives in simply and ever enthusiastically serving the emaculate senses of Krishna that brings Him unlimited pleasure , Radharani relished such pleasure in serving Krishna to such an extent that Krishna became inquisitive to experience those pleasures she felt . The Glorious Srimati Radharani is prepared forever to please Krishna , even if it makes Her unhappy. The picture of selfless love is painted .
When Sir Fred Hoyle said that the universe is too finely tuned to be a cataclysmic chance event . The atoms , elements , compounds, and molecular structures require exact combinations of protons in the atomic structures , which cause and set the various elements for the construction of the universe . Earth , for instance , for the structures for lifeforms requires a great deal of carbon , and Sir Fred thought it a mystery that this all important element should be ” by chance ” in place in such huge quantities. “Someone has monkeyed with our universe,” he famously said, so the right and perfect balance of elements came to be in place to support life , it’s all just too perfect “
Actually , in Vedic terms , the universe is finely tuned beyond any Western scientists’ comprehension . Never mind the physical universe , which includes our bodies and, of course , our minds , a mind which incidentally , it should be noted that the scientific community is absolutely clueless about .
The Vedas clearly explains that our next body is already beginning to form , from the subtle ethereal electricity of our minds desires and activities . The universal energies are , according to Vedic Scientific studies , that also parallel , quantum physics , that’s akin to the work of Bohr and Schrödinger , ie . the conclusions of the Copenhagen agreement . Both the Vedas and Bohr indicate the universe is responsive. The Vedas explains this , material actions subtle and gross or of a spiritually conscious nature , as in the case of a Krishna conscious person , who due to the practice of hearing about Krishna , Radharani and the spiritual world , completely changes destinies, and enters a spiritual abode . Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Maharaja , a famous Vedic scholar, who speaks of the mentally conceived spiritual body . This can be obtained through the purification of the Holy names , as given by Mahaprabhu , alongside with deep remberance of Krishna and His family, and an even deeper meditation based on the revelations of a spiritual world , revealed by the works of our acaryas . Rupa , Ragganath , Jayadeva Goswami, Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur, to name but a few .
In fact, Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur further says we have two bodies, the one we are currently in and the one that is forming , either spiritual or a material body . So universal and spiritual affairs are developed by reponsive automated methods with its many possibilities that are automatically tuned to consciousness develop , all this is beyond our comprehension . Perhaps our modern AI technology might hint at instant response systems . Your phone immediately understands your wants and desires, with its built-in algorithms at work .So, the trancendental algorithms and the super subjective algorithms of the spiritual universal order can be logged into .
Niels Bohr , Schrödinger ,Teller or Feynman, and Einstein would probably not deny these types of information exchanges and the reformation of the material and spiritual energy.
Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja used the British and their empire in such ways so as to assist them in reestablishing Vedic cultures and educating the masses in systematic ways , within India .This was the beginnings of their greater mission, which was to one day spread Vedic cultures and particularly the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and bring its influences worldwide . Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, in a future time, would step off a ship at Boston Harbour USA and begin the International Society for Krishna consciousness.
Ironically, the two great acaryas used the British , as well as appreciating some of the new methods of educational pursuits they had established in India, that included economics , science, literature, sociology , the arts etc etc . In the transcendental vision of these acaryas, nothing was to be left off the table when it came to spreading Krishna consciousness. The British had no idea that in future times, the Acaryas, using education and Vedic cultures, would turn the tables on Western cultures by establishing within Western societies temples and centres and bring new hopes to peoples and their societies at large . In 2025 , those hopes and new visions for peace and prosperity for countries worldwide inspired by a more simple type of living and higher thinking are ever more needed , as leaders all over the world fail their people.
There were many ways these two great acaryas were cooperative with the British , and due to this cooperative spirit, the British allowed a post office to be established in Mayapur, dispite it being a remote region of Bengal . The post office meant the Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja could post off and receive information that greatly assisted him in establishing 64 centres of Krishna consciousness all over India.
HH Bhakti Vikas Swami has recently on the appearance day 2025 of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati, given some interesting talks on these and other matters , which is well worth a listen on YouTube. Those talks also highlight the ontology and morphology of a spiritual movement , both necessary for greater preaching , but the cor ontology is the most important out of the two .
The Vedas, as well as a number of modern-day physicists, indicate that the Comos and our consciousness are two entirely separate energies . Furthermore, the science of how consciousness becomes interactive with the physical and subtle energies that are built on , according to the Vedas , a framework of devolved higher grade light called the Bramajyoti is indicated in the third Canto of the SrimadBhagavatam , this parallels to a degree the Copenhagen agreement in modern day quantum physics . A responsive universe with many possibilities is indicated, and that reflects the free will. These possibilities and resultant actions are described in Sanskrit as Aprarabdha and Prarabdha karmas . Namely, our impressions and entanglements left over from our previous entanglements and possibilities, and that makes up our psyche and the karmic synchronicities that go with it . It’s said some immediately , some soon and some in the distant future. Einstein spoke of space time continuum , what I have laid out is just that . All reactionary forces of karmic synchronicities can be cleansed or changed by religious or other types of pious activities . In the case of complete surrender to Divinity with love and in pure devotion , everything is wiped clean, and the next death will be the last … http://www.thevedicspectator.com
The sophisticated animal , either individually or communally , spends his time uselessly battling for recourse with exploitation of environments and of others around him upmost in his mind , causing death and destruction in his path , both politically , economically and in a personal way to his victims , who ever they may be . He enacts his “Darwinian ” vision for the survival of the fittest , the fittest individual , community or nation . The Vedic cultures totally condemnes such animalistic consciousness , it rather promotes the equality of all beings and encourages and educates them all to understand the human condition , making sure the needs are met of everyone , and in truth , that means a body , a mind and a soul Thus consciousness development and knowledge of the truth of the environments consciousness finds itself in is the prime objective of Vedic Cultures . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Krishna loves and favours the cows and the Brahminical persons . Why ? Many reasons , Certainly the cows and Brahminical persons are seen to be benevolent, peaceful, tolerant , and always full of abundance in this sense , in the case of the Brahminical order , they are overflowing with good wishes , and the best of knowledge is distributed freely by them to one and all , at all times , indeed they are well wishers of all of humanity and every living beings . They fully understand the consciousness condition and why it is certain types of consciousness arise, which can be both harmful or beneficial .
In the case of the cow , they show the example to humanity , giving off a peaceful healing aura , indeed, persons with mental vulnerabilities can be greatly benefited in their association . In fact, cow hugging has become a useful addition to various therapies. This feeling of deep peacefulness the cows exudes and the example the cows show in submissive service to anyone , along with living peacefully just by eating grass that nature provides , generates their wonderfully gentle persona , undisturbed , easily approachable . They produce excess milk and are easily milked undisturbed . The benefits of milk to the consciousness are spoken of in the Vedas , milk helps consciousness and finer brain tissues are said to develop by regularly drinking it , particularly useful for the sensitivity of spiritual awareness . We can note there are benefits of being in the association of highly qualified persons , who give off positive good energies , cows also possess these special benedictory qualities that are very beneficial to us humans . Krishna has made such arrangements , by His grace , He speaks in the Bhagavad Gita about different types of consciousness , and it appears Krishna has specifically blessed the Brahminical persons and the cows so they can bless us . It’s also mentioned in the Vedas that killing both Brahminical persons or cows is the most heinous and sinful act . To kill a giving merciful person is indeed demoniac . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
There are 120 armed conflicts in the world right now , in each of which human rights are increasingly ignored , thus, world leaders are failing , United Nations are failing , democracies are failing . The Vedic culture with its emphasis and directions for systematic development of the varieties of persons within each community directed and led by the real Intelligentsia , as defined in the Vedas , is the way for understanding and peace . Proffesional politicians or global businesses persons are not qualified leaders , they have no real sense of how communities can thrive on all levels , socially , economically, scientifically, and definitely not philosophically. Citizens are looking for real leaders with the required qualities . The Vedic cultures based on consciousness development and satisfying rewarding lives , not solely based just on money and possessions, are the way to pursue world peace and cooperation between all individual nations and their citizens .
It’s crystal clear that the very broad Vedas incorporates all forms of religious philosophies and practice, according to where one is situated in particular states of consciousness one should take up some form of practice, one should never impose one form of religious practice on others or think them superior, its a question of relative truth and how all relative truths are in the absolute truth Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur explains these things in his Jiva Dharma. Real knowledge means being non sectarian , understanding and having a broad vision and long-term vision, but also understanding progressive paths http://www.thevedicspectator.com
In Vedic Culures, many different types of Gurus are available, but in absolute truth, all Gurus are aligning , be they expert in geopolitical matters , or within economics , or social sciences , or within general sciences , or sociopolitical affairs , its very clear in the Vedas every thing is connected to Divinity. Nothing is outside , but the 18 puranas tell us some people are predominantly in goodness, some passion and some ignorant and the therapeutic Vedas along with its expert teachers know how applications work to benefit one and all .
Vedic culture always means having specific teachers, or one could say different types of Gurus, defined loosely as Diksa and Siksa Gurus for spiritual realisation development, the most essential knowledge . But also you may consult other Brahminical persons or learned Vipras , or genuinely learned , wise , balanced, and mature scholars in various fields , but who are always independent. You could have specific scientific Gurus. You could have specific geopolitical Gurus. Or Gurus, who have mastered various arts or aspects of philosophies of all kinds, for instance . Thus the word guru was used very broadly in Vedic Culures and each guru had different purposes, but because absolute truth can be applied and understood in multitudes of ways , you will find alignment as well as diversity in all the Gurus. http://www.thevedicspectator.com.
A hugely beneficial educational system , a decending process of generosity directed by those who are situated in pure goodness .
Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu in His conversation with Ramananda Roy , approved of everything Ramananda Roy said , but whatever he said Mahāprabhu said ” Very good , but is there something more “ Thus, the all-encompassing Vedas was discussed .
