The ultimate truth is found in understanding and realising dualism, mind matter, and consciousness. Matter and consciousness, as Plato pointed out, are two entirely separate energies. Matter can be categorized as being in both visible and ” invisible ” forms , since you cannot see a mind or intelligence, but it’s there , the pure consciousness energies are working the awarded bodies , minds and an intelligence , which are able to develop in various ways , nothing is set in stone , free will and determinism have flexibility. Scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis negates dualistic truth and favours a speculative process concluded by a primordial soup causing the life of Einstein, amongst others . The speculative processes of jnana yoga , contained in the Vedas , however, acknowledge dualism , but most conclusions of the practitioners lead to an impersonal philosophy , that God is an impersonal energy and is not an individual in His own right . The question that they can not answer is why” God particles” are covered by ignorance . Why do they falsely identify with matter .Who is causing this to occur .The Vedas say God causes illusion. Thus, the personalis bring the realistic and logical conclusion and the correct understanding that we are parts of God , and God has become many, but remained the same all powerful originator and has not diminished in any way But He is like the sun we are photons . God is the cause of all causes. We have been caused . But God is never caused . Consciousness and the responsive universe with a cause and purpose are acceptable to Einstein, Bohr and Schrödinger and many physicists. The many possibilities of quantum physics are so because atoms are formulated and arranged following consciousness. In fact, the expanding universe only expands because of activity and desire .
The fact that only 5% of the universe is made of atoms and the as yet undefined ” dark matter and dark energies ” is so very mysterious to those following scientific materialism, however we would suggest it could be easily solved if the ethereal plane as depicted in the Vedas is examined . Dualism is the key , mind , matter, and consciousness study is required, and the Vedas will help
Progressing consciousness from its covered states, its shrunken states , its budding states , or its blooming states , and arriving at a fully blossoming state is a curious method of describing consciousness progression. It tells the story of the evolution of the consciousness state . From plants to animals to uncultured humans to cultured humans to humans connected to and in tune with universal affairs and their origins to pure consciousness in communication with its originator, Divinity.
Unlike the Darwinians, who consider consciousness as simply chance events of neurons firing in a brain that originated from a primordial slime , the Vedas take a clear and objective look at consciousness, using various sciences . With an analytical construct clearly demonstrating that consciousness is different from the gross and subtle influences of matter that are governed by physical laws , it’s an essential guide .The Vedas shows the path of freedom from the shackles of material existence in full .
Bohr , Schrödinger , Feynman , Teller, and Einstein , as physicists, looked at consciouseness within the responsive universe, and unlike the gross biologists veiwed life’s fundermentals in entirely different ways .
The Vedic terms for states of consciousness are ….ana maya, pranna maya , jnana maya , vijnana maya, and ananda maya .
In English terms, these are compared to a flower throughout its life , first covered , then shrunken , then budding , then blossoming , then fully blooming .
The animals and other various creatures are categorised in terms of consciousness , they are considered to have covered consciousness , anu maya . The unthinking human who is living like a sophisticated animal without any philosophical position is in shrunken consciousness , The human who considers life and its purpose is considered to be in budding consciousness , the human who has realised some degree of the glory of consciousness in connections to Divinity is in blossoming consciousness , and finally, the human who has established a relationship in love with God is in fully blossoming consciousness.
So literally, the science of consciousness , consciousness awareness, and self realisation and its perfection has been summarised . Each of these categories is given a thorough run-through in the Vedas, and progressive and systematic programmes are recommended . This enables and empowers everyone to understand their consciousness state . Step by step guidance is given .One should seek an expert who is in Ananda maya consciousness to guide one in such consciousness progressions . Also, any person who is a little further progressed than ourselves will be of help by their association.
When one loses touch with absolute truth , other truths quickly and inevitably slide into a continual decline, spiralling faster and further into the oblivion of deceit . Association is important if one intimately associates with those who live a life of denial of truths then crookedness becomes readily accepted and becomes part of a life , untruths become the norm .It is the nature of the illusory energy of Divinity , which facilitates and awards the 8,400,000 different species where the unlimited myriads of untruths can be lived out . Divinity is the great provider, and deceit needs to be lived out in less harmful ways . The animal kingdoms serve such purposes .Truth has declined so much in current times that any man speaking truth is ridiculed or in todays world silenced , some call it cancel culture . The persons who are speaking lies are glorified and practically worshipped as truthful visionaries. Current algorithmic processes and Ai assisted technologies assist the dishonest greatly their webbs of lies and propaganda infiltrate everything. History, culture, philosophy, and political and scientific explanations are going to be fixed in particular ways , after generations, truth will slip further and further into oblivion. The most cooked of persons , who together snatch the worlds recourses , pay very good money to anyone who will repeat their lies , one becomes the servant of the “devil ” . And with algorithms deliberately set to favour untruths, the rascals and demoniac see to it that things will work in their favour, the unthinking public, are easily fooled . Welome to the world where fools have voted in fools .. and where the Godless reign. To understand absolute truth, one’s lordship of matter and argumentations against absolute truth should be reversed , logic and objective sciences should be accepted. One of the greatest untruths are Darwinian hypothesis and scientific materialism, this is guessing, but presented as as absolute truth , these particular untruths are the foundations our global conglomerate material world and its politics of ruthless explotation . Disrespect of others and their cultures is promoted by demons . Acceptance and adoption of a humility of heart should be accepted along with a general respect for all beings , its a self-evident truth , the equality of consciousness , although in different circumstances. Compassionate thoughts are the symptoms of truth as well as natural detachment with lack of greed . , Peace within the heart will always be found in truth , and the beginnings of a relationship with Divinity is underway in that state , truth and faith in absolute truth carries one a long way http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Srila Jiva Goswami in his Bhagavat Sandarbha speaks about glances .The glance of Mahavisnu and the glance of the conditioned living beings are two different things .However, conditioned glances can change to less conditioned glances by cultivation and practice of spiritual knowledge in the correct manner. Systematic acquisition of knowledge by the correct cultures of the decending process , by grace , is described by the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas. Ones glance changes from one of exploitation to service .The highest exhibition of a glance with the heart of incalculable love and devotion are described by the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas in their elaborations of the tenth Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam ,Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu personally came to experience the power of such a glance and taught about its glorious position.
The members of any Gaudia Vaisnava society would be sadly mistaken if they thought that the full gamut of the conversation between Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Ramananda Roy did.not apply to their respective societies , or them personally, as a means of legitimate progression. Putting on foot firmly on the floor before lifting one’s leg to take another step is essential of course, less we fall on the ground. The litratures of the Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas are meant for the prospective members of Gaudia Vaisnava groups of devotees without them the full journey which Ramananda Roy and Mahāprabhu had could not be completed. This is common sense Vaisnavism.
Do you want your children led by an autocrat who is intelligent, cultured , abides by family culture, as well as traditions that are influenced by theological values . Who keeps standards of morality high and makes them governmental priorities . Who seeks to protect the innocent and particularly the young from influences and influencers who follow no real personal standards ,ethics, or morality and who favour libertine cultures that seek to cancel cultures of traditions. Autocrats generally control the business classes , and keep them to responsible standards , unlike some democracies where businessmen pay for political parties and lobby with cash what the laws should be in practically all feilds , along with making sure “free market economics” becomes the monopolies they desire .The original Autocrats in Vedic cultures were advised by the high-class Brahminical intelligensia and the Vedic scholarly Vipras in particular disciplines . All of whom were well versed in the sciences of mind , matter, and consciousness. Following the conglomerate liberalists community often means surrendering your intelligence to speculative scientific materialism and atheistic speculative Darwinian hypothoisis and the implications thereof. One should clearly think for oneself. The Vedic Way is the way of traditions , but as well , carefully embracing the new , and in so doing, protecting purely cultured persons from bad association and degrading consciousness. Pointing out logical objective sciences and pointing out the psychological effects of following an undisciplined mind and the good effects of understanding many broad philosophies that compliment sciences . There are implications of wrong choices and the harms they inflict . Liberalisation and a failed democratic system prey on people’s weaknesses, allowing them freedoms that, in reality, horribly bind them . Thus, the importance of being led by the pure and wise intelligentsia who bring freedoms , peace, and a long-term sustainable happiness, that’s the Vedic way.. http://www.thevedicspectator.com

Translation
I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose effulgence is the source of the nondifferentiated Brahman mentioned in the Upaniṣads, being differentiated from the infinity of glories of the mundane universe appears as the indivisible, infinite, limitless, truth.
Krishna declares the material energies one of his eternal energies. Krishna has superior, marginal, and inferior energies. They are all spiritual because they originate from the supreme spiritual . In the sense they originate from Divinity , matter appears to be material , but ultimately, its a devolved energy from the spiritual kingdoms. Energy is transformed but never destroyed, and the atoms are like that based in electromagnetism and ultimately spiritual light , the Vedas clearly say .
The spiritual energies consisting of the bramajyoti , its an eternal light springing from the effulgence of Divinity . Some individual living beings like to absorb themselves in this light and merge in an impersonal life . This trancendental light is transformed and devolved to bring about the atomic and then the classical realms of physics . The many possibilities described in quantum physics indicate an interaction of consciousness within these material energies , free will and determinism.
The superior, the marginal , and inferior energies collide within the material worlds and material life plays out , the expanding universe is due to desire .Facilities are forthcoming in the responsive universe.
The third Canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam, the fundamental principle of material nature brings some clarity.
The sources of an atomic realm and its ” coded ” systems , coded because depending on how many protons in the atom will determine the element that the atoms manifest . Why there are so many carbon atoms ? , essential for the structure of bodies was a mystery for Sir Fred Hoyle . He said, “That someone has monkeyed with the universe.”
Not only atoms but electronic magnetic energy are functioning in every aspect of life , including our brain neurons.
These energies are borrowed plumes , and are transfered and devolved from a spiritual dimension into a material one . The real master of engineering is Krishna who leaves His thumb prints in the form of organisational codes and other subtle pulses of informational energies during bodily assembly .The hox gene is not the loan body builder but rather a host of material and ethereal energies are at play , they are observed, but not understood. Thus, the wondrous display of countless particles of consciousness interacts along with unlimitedly complex karmic synchronicities. The Ai and algorithmic systems of Divinity..
Karma …connects a past , present, and future. The universe is a responsive universe.. Mind , matter and consciousness interlink… The mechanistic Darwinian remains drowning in his primordial soup while the physicists are approaching truth utalising objective sciences. The objective chemist and biological thinker also approach truth , informational exchanges within the dna codes are self-evident.. This leaves Darwinians coughing and sputtering into their soup. .
The material world is a place where narratives and untruths are packaged up as truths . The only persons who can unwrap the packages and discard their content are genuine intelligentsia . Those who are in knowledge of dualism . Who understand the various psychological differences of everyone and why they occur . How all peoples can be helped within their own cultures and countries , who know of the worth of worldwide cultures and theological traditions , only the true intelligentsia see the self-evident truth of the equality of all living beings .They understand the rights and circumstances of persons living in matter and understand how consciousness has found itself within the material world. Such persons are the best of mankind and are made to be the advisors of the political classes , and the leaders of them . Businessmen who have limitations in intelligence and have many many insensitivities, thinking profit comes at any cost , should be nowhere near leading society, rather they need leading. The current political classes and the businessmen who support and pay for them as well as many “sold out fake intellectuals ” who are in their employ are no more than sophisticated animals…Richard Feynman said that someone could have a so called education but be a complete idiot.
The long long history of “human dogs” fighting other dogs or cats goes on , the sophisticated animals led by the unintelligent who silence the intelligentsia have historical accounts of one disaster after another . Those who are ignorant who teach scientific dualism and who don’t understand the potential of consciousness simply scrap and fight over the temporary affairs of the material world until they themselves are buried in the graveyards. However, they rise again as cats and dogs, and the fighting goes on , but at least in the backyards …
To understand the truth, one has to know the psychology behind a speaker as well as his motivation and reasons for speaking . We must know their authority and their source of knowledge . Beneficial meanings behind what they say could well be there , or there could well be harmful and ignorant , deceptions that are underlying a person’s motivations , that he or she keeps hidden and that will cause inculcabable harm .
In matters of sciences, political affairs, and theological sciences , truth is essential . The symptoms and the characteristics of a personality who is acting and speaking truth are given in many theological texts and clearly in the Bhagavad Gita. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
In Gaudiya Vaisnavism, one’s own personal service to the pure devotee is essential and comes in many forms . Ones personal bhajan and understandings of Sri Guru along with the previous acaryas through their writings and teachings and their bhajan are essential to understand, and that in one sense is the greatest service. From there, many trancendental experiences may decend . Either in this life by grace or the next life will immediately spring forth .Srila BR Sridhar Swami would say faith carries one a long way .
The clue of the purposes of ISKCON can be found in photographs of Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja welcoming members of the British Raj to his Gaudia Math in the 1930s , making many special provisions for them , and also in the same manner welcoming many Western scholars and intellectuals. The attempts for Srila Bhaktivinod Thakurs’ vision of Devi Varna Ashram had begun . Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaj disciple Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami , having spent a life of study and seven years living in retirement in Vrndavana preparing for his mission took his Guru Maharajas’ messages all over the world , they are still reverberating and expanding . Anyone can connect whatever ones condition or status in life and fulfil life’s ultimate purposes.
Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja has brought the complete , more complete, and most complete messages of Godhead..
When Krishna appeared 5000 years ago he exhibited His full personality , which is the most complete in spontaneous love within Vraja , and exhibited fully only in the company of Srimati Radharani and Her friends.
Krishna exhibited his desire to establish religious principles in his pastimes in Mathura ,Dwarka and in Kurukshetra.
Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja brings full knowledge of the complete , more complete and most complete by his practical preaching activities of challenging materialism in very strong ways, as well as deviations from legitimate spiritual practices, no speculations or “add ons ” were tolerated .
But he also, on a number of occasions, revealed indirectly his most intimate spiritual position , that of Radha Dasyam , in Manjari bhava.
Like Krishna and Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaj had concerns for the world , and as well he had his ultimate personal deeply felt spiritual concerns for his services within the eternal realms of Vrndavana , executed with confidentiality in Srimati Radharani’s services , but Srila Bhaktisiddanta for that realm exhibits another confidential form .

Every one of these categories of theological persons and their attempts to understand properly theologies can all be properly thought of in set context. A thorough example of how each of them got to their present state of teachings should be carried out .In understanding of Divinity, spiritual teachers and authorities in scriptures and the previous saints and authorities must line up . There is no room for speculations or personal motivations for changing Divinity and His messages.
Not all men or women are at the stage of desiring exclusively pure devotional service to the Lord. Mixed devotion is in the mix in all theological paths with set progressive steps . However, the beginnings, middles, and ends of a spiritual educational system should be clearly defined and not mixed up .We can not have infants calling the shots or the advanced professors insisting that infant students practice and read what they do .
Some religious persons have devotional attitudes mixed with many other motives like political or material perfection for personal benefits. These are naturally reflected in the religious minded societies but should be recognised for what they are by the scholars of each tradition. The highest and lowest of standard must be made clear , otherwise, the lowest will pass as the highest, that’s called cheating religion .
Birds of feathers flock together. The Vedas , being extremely broad, can incorporate all motivated and unmotivated persons as well as pure persons . They put them into four categories and bring relative connections between them all .
The categories are Karma yogis …jnana yogis …astanga yogis and pure Bhakti Yogis ..
Each of those four categories has various followings, but also many subdivisions that are based on , and according to , progress in disciplines . This progression is according to how an individual can transition to a deeper spiritual understanding of much greater levels . The ultimate goal is pure dedication and devotion towards Divinity.
In Vedic Culures, the pure “person Bhagavat”, is the personification of the ancient Srimad Bhagavatam . Such a person is in a Gaudia Vaisnava disciplic succession . They are extremely well versed in the Vedas and take into account time place and circumstances when it comes to any application of the Bhāgavatam . They will be able to give a thorough analysis of all topics within the Vedas and relate them to contemporary times .
Krishna says in 7th chapter of Bhagavad Gita..
TEXT 16: O best among the Bhāratas, four kinds of pious men begin to render devotional service unto Me – the distressed, the desirer of wealth, the inquisitive, and he who is searching for knowledge of the Absolute.
TEXT 17: Of these, the one who is in full knowledge and who is always engaged in pure devotional service is the best. For I am very dear to him, and he is dear to Me.
TEXT 18: All these devotees are undoubtedly magnanimous souls, but he who is situated in knowledge of Me I consider to be just like My own self. Being engaged in My transcendental service, he is sure to attain Me, the highest and most perfect goal
.TEXT 19: After many births and deaths, he who is actually in knowledge surrenders unto Me, knowing Me to be the cause of all causes and all that is. Such a great soul is very rare.
TEXT 20: Those whose intelligence has been stolen by material desires surrender unto demigods and follow the particular rules and regulations of worship according to their own natures.
It’s absolutely vital to find a pure representative of God in order to advance fully in spiritual life who can correctly guide people’s claims of purity ….there are many who pose as devotees who are actually demons or with mixed personal motives .
Thus, checks and balances are in place in Vedic Culures. True Gurus , true saints, and theological texts always align.
The pure teachers, both of a past and the present , along with the scriptures consisting of both the Sruti and Smriti texts are essential to help us avoid those that will do us harm.
The demoniac person thinks: So much wealth do I have today, and I will gain more according to my schemes. So much is mine now, and it will increase in the future, more and more. He is my enemy, and I have killed him; and my other enemy will also be killed. I am the lord of everything, I am the enjoyer, I am perfect, powerful and happy. I am the richest man, surrounded by aristocratic relatives. There is none so powerful and happy as I am. I shall perform sacrifices, I shall give some charity, and thus I shall rejoice. In this way, such persons are deluded by ignorance.
When you have a GBC body or an ISKCON Guru, thinking his or her or their way is the one and only way you have a problem and lack of understanding of Krishna consciousness along with its many formats . Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has revealed the processes of Krishna consciousness in His conversations with Ramananda Roy. ISKCON began in 1965, and ISKCON in 2026 is going to have a different feel to it , not least because devotees have been practising and preaching for 50 , 60 years . The fullness of the conversations that Mahāprabhu and Ramananda Roy had must always be the business of ISKCON . With no allowance for diversity , or if a change in emphasis in any way were to take place, then ISKCON would miss the point .Beginnings , middles, and ends of an educational program are never given up , the emphasis is on all the steps . When you have a GBC or ISKCON guru that allows for the many in the diversity that’s progressive Gaudia Vaisnava param para . When you have a GBC or Guru stifling and centralising , minimising one part of the educational system’s, then you have a problem with the ever blooming ISKCON society. When you have ,at least in ISKCON , no clearly defined and easily understood constitution representing Srila Prabhupada and the Gaudia Vaisnava traditions that Prabhupada clearly taught , introduced and practised himself , then all these problems come about . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
