  • Interconnected consciousness.

    Mar 18th, 2025

    Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Swami speaks of seeing on the surface,  seeing much deeper , and making adjustments in our own consciousness so as to link a partical of consciousness with the Supreme whole .

    Everything is interconnected. Everything stems from the same origin. It’s only due to an artificial imposition of a  mental state that we see differences and that we develop local interests instead of the interests of a  wholesome consciousness that harmonizes all living beings .

    This deeper consciousness far from surface consciousness is to be cultivated , such cultivation is the perfection of life far from the maddening crowd.

    In the Bhagavad Gita Krishna calls this consciousness brahman consciousness, and this stage is the beginnings of pure Krishna consciousness , in Krishna consciousness one directly communes with Divinity Himself.

    The philosophical treaty that comprehensively includes all interconnected states of mind is called Bhagavad Gita, and it’s a must-have …..for those who are seriously interested in the science of consciousness. Dualism is a reality far beyond the speculative mindset of those that accept scientific materialism , in reality, life comes from life .

    Why accept the temporary and changing body

    steveneuroart

    In the world of reality we are losing control of our  bodies , they are forcibly   changing  day by day , whether we  like it or not , we have no choice ,  cells are  in  fast reproduction mode , the atoms ,elements compounds, and molecules are busy at work , and our leaders in scientific feilds are clueless as to how or why .  Despite their desperate attempt to research ageing  and deterioration of cell reproduction, they  unfortunately remain frustrated and bewildered. The only solution offered is the sticking plaster of plastic surgery,  which never quite looks natural.

    It is indeed a great tragedy that should not be accepted ,  beautiful , young  , youthful, and ever enthusiastic for life bodies , are  being forced to change and wither away . Why should youth  be  given up ? Why should we blindly accept this happening to our bodies , along with confused  minds and depleting  wit and intelligence , we should not accept , rather, ask why ?

    After all , why  listen to a person touting  speculative scientific materialism ? How do they know they know ?  Such speculations can’t  even understand or account for Plato’s  dualism , ( mind and body as seperate energies) Scientific materialism constantly pushes  subjective bias , and in a cheating mode present it as fact based science to children and students and also release ” scientific ” papers convincing the innocent public , that they know clearly how the world works , everything  , they say , by chance physical laws with no law maker.

    The intelligence should be utilised properly in human life the Vedas say , make the best of your life ,  plan for a  real  future , a future where one  leaves  behind all  previous  past present and futures .  In order to plan properly , you must know your  best options . If you have not enquired about your current condition within a specific body that is given a  specific time , you are not giving yourself what you deserve . Although modern Western societies encourage us to become like  sophisticated animals , enjoying the senses come what may , the Vedas condemnes that approach as ignorance . Ignoring the onslaught of time and accepting death without question is animal life . Vedas says , “Look  into the best of the options  open for you , do so immediately , as  time and tide wait for no man .”

    All is revealed in the Vedas and by the professors who know them and live  them.   So know your life better ,   know what  your  best options are . Make your plan , you know for sure   your consciousness is not the changing body ,  the Vedas offer  a body to match the consciousness energies in more ways than one .

  • Get the best of your theological scholars.

    Mar 18th, 2025

    The world has always had a problem with religion and politics collision , each using each other and with inpure motives .

    Only the top most  of the religious and philosophical intelligensia can be employed to understand the broad and all inclusive theological texts,  they see how God is one , but comes in many ways at different times teaching one and differences in His messages.

    Unfortunately, currently, Trump, as previously Biden did , works  hand in hand , with Netenyaho to destroy and degrade Muslim communities who they claim should all be practically labelled as terrorists or potential terrorists. Of course, the actions of the elements of Hamas who killed innocent citizens and took hostages equally fall into the categories of the barbarian.  There is nothing legitimate about it politically or religiously . Currently USA and ISRAEL and their proposed solutions are not at all legitimate and go against every theological culture , as well as international laws . Their continuing participation in such murderous acts of genocidal revenge brings them both every close to ever darker futures..
    The real solutions to the perversions of any  theological culture.  be it Muslim , Christian , Jewish , or Hindu are to make sure those theological cultures employ  the best and purest of scholars and who  purely follow the meanings of their texts , and apply them in time place and circumstances 

    Pure persons with pure  consciousness  have an all-encompassing vision and are  without materialistic bias or hatred for others. These spiritual leaders should be sure to represent their faith properly and legitimately , teaching their people without any political interference..

  • When the wrong kind of person seeks to influence something inherently good and currupts it .

    Mar 17th, 2025

    We must remember there are different qualities of persons each being influenced by modes of nature , either goodness passion or ignorance according to the Vedas , another influence is the Divine of Demoniac energies.

    When it comes to the history of both religion or politics, it can be seen that on many occasions, wrong influences are brought to bear , and the results are violence,  hatred and ignorance,  truth slips further away from sight,  and a fever pitch of deceit increases .

    Before anyone accepts any political or religious leaders , better find out where their authority is coming from and if it can be traced to authentic statements based on the different grades of political and religious traditions .

    Actually, in one sense, you can’t separate politics and religion. But in another sense you can , how so ? The Vedas make it  clear that self realised souls don’t direct society , and that is left to the best of the administrative classes .

    It’s clear from all standard theolgical texts worldwide , and the historical documents need to be researched thoroughly to check for unauthorised changes by unauthorised persons posing as something they are not . This is essential so as to  know what truth is , truth and curruption of truth will be clear,  in the minds of the truthful. Such pure persons see how such truth incorporates everyone , there is no sectarian spirit in truth. Thus, if any religious leader or political leader is biased or sectarian, they should be immediately dismissed and understood as not  being  bone fide spiritual or political leaders.

    The Vedas give the broad definition of absolute truth and how truth always includes everyone and every being in their relitive positions.

    It’s time for everyone in a world of the cheaters and the cheated to really understand what is truth and what the symptoms of truth are.

  • Let the Vedas grab your attention..

    Mar 17th, 2025

    Let the Vedas grab your attention.. along with the Vedic Proffesors . The teacher and his character should be ideal .

    Daily, mainstream media stations around the world wheel out all kinds of ” expert ” persons ,  putying them on your TV screen  with a ploy to influence your mind , such ” expert”  persons who purport to speak objective truth ,   in reality  most of the time, they are filling the airwaves with complete  subjective bias . Added to the mainstream nowadays are countless internet ” experts  “
    If anyone wants to know the truth , Krishna gives us advice in His Bhagavad Gita . His first point is that the quality of the persons character should be perfect and examined , and the other point He makes is the persons epistemology , the evidence, how do they know they know ..In matters of sociology , political affairs , the economy , geopolitical history the arts, etc etc and the  general sciences how are we to  know that  what ” experts ”  say are  actually objective facts  , and not their spin or subjective slant , the material world is condemned as a place where people have a tendency to cheat , they have imperfect senses , they are easily illusioned and they make frequent mistakes.
    Our point is , if you’re going to subject yourself to so many opinions on so many subjects , at least give yourself a grounding by understanding the Vedas.
    Knowledge , truth , beauty, and harmony are absolute and always in existence. Such truth pervades everywhere, and if one’s consciousness is rightly situated, one can catch all self-evident truths .
    You attract what you are , so we should be clear on how to be situated correctly.

  • Old and yet new , the constant fluctuating universal affairs.

    Mar 16th, 2025

    Cyclic universal cycles and speciation.

    Speciation,  its  untraceable history within time immemorial .

    The Darwinions greatly limit themselves , by turning a blind eye to the physicists , many of whom readily accept multidimensional space time and cyclic universal events that are  self perpetual .

    With that in mind, the Vedas confirm this thinking and carry the matter further , recording an incalculable number  of other universes , which are simultaneously manifested .

    All  living beings who inhabit these various regions have also been in existence since time immemorial, and they are in a constant flux, including patterns of accepting different bodies within different species . This is determined by the particular consciousness , which is being driven by particular mental and intellectual  attitudes, all of which actually originate from Divinity.  In reality, they are alien to our original pure consciousness existence . The Vedas indicate that according to each individual being’s ethereal consciousness , caused by choices and interactions within matter ,that in turn are  connected to an automated process of bodily production , one could very well say a super subjective artificial intelligence system operates .  It is inconceivable in one sense  , but also conceivable , especially in current  technological times .

    The material energies are ,  according to the Bhagavad Gita ,  endlessly mutable , and as such , the ethereal mind  is free to wonder in uncalculable  ways within them . The circumstances behind every living being on veiw  gives us an indication of   an individual experience,  very real to them , they develop and taste unlimited variables of the  inner consciousness and unique experiences in every particular   body that is accepted . All seek ways of satisfaction and pleasure.  Thus , nothing is fixed in the mental ethereal planes , and accordingly , speciation changes and adapts as the material energies award multitudes of bodies within ever fluctuating environments that  can be  forever  responsive to differing circumstances and differing time factors , in the multi universe .

    As an engineer can automatically adapt a set and successful design to suit a slightly different purpose ,  variables and adapted structural changes to the engineering of the body are always going to be easily possible , thus to the Darwinian we say , same engineer,  different engineering .  For instance, you can turn your garage into a first-class mini  cinema , or your bungalow into a mansion , using  engineering’s  set rules . So the Vedic explanation for speciation is simple ,  same engineer,  different engineering , along with flexibility and adaptions but always a guided process , not unguided chance mutations. Such facilities for the consciousness to reside  continue in universal cyclic cycles eternally. As Divinity is constantly expanding.

  • Something on loan …

    Mar 16th, 2025

    Some followers of Buddhism or similarly Sankacarya consider the material desires and material energies are somehow not connected to a supreme personality who has , using His energies , provided the material energies with which an individual can masquerade as a separate enjoyer . Although they are totally clueless of the origins or real nature of what they try to enjoy .
    They postulate that their own mind is creating their temporary life of illusion. But do not give any explanation of the origins of their minds , although the Srimad Bhagavatam does so , a manifestation of Visnu called Annirudha is the sum total of the subtle powers of the mind , that accepts and rejects conditions presented to it , thinking, feeling and willing using another of Visnu’s energies, the intelligence coming from Pradyumna the totality of a borrowed intellect that functions within matter and exploits matter .
    Thus in ignorance of their surroundings , they fail in their attempts to enjoy and in their further failures, they imagine that permanent liberation is possible by ignorance and denial of absolute truth who is manifesting material energies , including minds and intellects .
    The Vedas gives the full rundown on every philosophical position imaginable. One is advised to make a study and hear from those who know something of those positions .

  • Propelling the spirit soul back to the spiritual worlds.

    Mar 16th, 2025

    “The propulsion of all rockets, jet engines, deflating balloons, and even squids and octopuses is explained by the same physical principle—Newton’s third law of motion. Matter is forcefully ejected from a system, producing an equal and opposite reaction on what remains. Another common example is the recoil of a gun.”

    The greatest propulsion of all perhaps is the equal and opposite reactions of spiritual movements as opposed to material movements .  Movements  spiritually bound or materially bound have far-reaching  consequences for the individuals , well  beyond one’s comprehension . They  propel the individual within the 14 planetary regions of space, where time and matter are  operating under different laws or instead ,  into the regions beyond space time where time is conspicuous by its absence,  the Vedas says.

    To thrust the conditioned souls from their attractions to self-centred material lust , towards pure unadulterated love , is no easy task . Material lust is masquerading  as love and deceive the whole world.

    Yet , the pulling of pure  love and lust are remarkably similar in one sense , like broken glass and diamonds seem comparable to the naive.   It’s a question of motivation and the purity of our  motivations that determines which direction our consciousness is heading in .Love and lust can look similar , but are millions of miles apart .

    Even more remarkable is that the Vedas describe in fine details these forces of love and lust . One trajectory forces our mind and senses, traversing into the lower regions of species and planets and the other into the higher regions and ultimately the planets where Divinity resides .

    Srimati Radharani , the Supreme Goddess of fortune and the activities of the residents of Vrndavana, are one example of supreme pure love , the residents of Dwarka, another , the residents of Vaikuntha are also delineated as places where  the highest of pure love is exhibited.   The power and attractions of serving the emaculate spiritual senses of Divinity brings ever new enthusiasm, as opposed to what the Christians might  refer to as  serving the Devil , i.e., selfish self-centred lust with  exploitation as its goal that degrades the consciousness causing depression. These are the two extremes of life . There are, of course, plenty of middle grounds, and both  extremes have, in one sense, unlimited facilities by the arrangement of Divinity.

    Unimaginably strong forces of  attractions are at play , such are the arrangements of what the Vedas call Maha Maya and Yoga Maya . The impersonal philosophers try to deny or starve  the senses , but the soul has senses, and they must act sooner or later , one way or another. The Vedas tell us of our choices.

    Fully understanding the attractions of the mind and senses and where they  might take us and the speed that they carry us to  destinations  are  fully described in the Vedas . Every destination is explained from the 8,400,000 species in a material universes to the unlimited planes of Vaikuntha planets.

  • No conditions immediately love of God .

    Mar 16th, 2025

    Lord Krishna, in His Bhagavad Gita , the song of God , makes a condition to approach Him , He says, “Think of Me , become my devotee , offer homage and worship Me , you will certainly come to Me .” Certainly, that’s how love works , even in the material world, the lover is always thinking of the lover , or the mother is always thinking of the child .

    But when Krishna came as Mahaprabhu He did not make any conditions , He freely is  distributing love of God to one and all the deserving and undeserving.

    A C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada tells the secret  of how the undeserving and impious persons are able to immediately purify their existence and approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead  , Prabhupada demonstrates it . He told  Bhaja  Hari his disciple .when a tramp was seen sleeping on a park bench whilst on a morning walk , that such a person and others like Him can be immediately purified of sins .  Sins which are bearing results now , in the near future and distant future , all eradicated . Prabhupada said , “we are creating their good fortune , by chanting the Holy names , they hear God names ,  by distributing prasadam and by trancendental litratures and thus all methods are engaging everyone in the highest of Sukriti activities.

    Thus, there is no need for a  previous good sukriti , either karma or jnana , because we immediately are giving Bhakti sukriti the highest of benefits ,  the usual Vedic systems   required to approach God is to aquire much piety. In this age one can very soon develop the highest standards and  highest spiritual culture that enable anyone to think of Him and serve Him and enter into a relationship.  Of course, those that have got some trancendental pedigree from previous practice will generally be able to dive deeper and quickly into the ocean of love of God , but not in all cases.

    Lord Nityananda led this mass distribution of love of God  and trancendental Sukriti to one and all under the direction of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu , and the magnificent display of these  great benedictions were brought to the world by A.C . Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada , which was very much the desire of Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami , and how inconceivably and perfectly Prabhupada carried those desires out and practically enacted them

  • Modern and ancient worlds

    Mar 15th, 2025

    The benefits of an industrial and technological world and its downfalls.

    From a Vedic perspective, one might not see any benefits of our modern world with what’s clearly witnessed as increased materialism and exploitation , with wealth for the very few and poverty for the rest internationally.

    Initially, the industrial revolution was hailed as a great wonder for mankind , it made claims of alleviating poverty and civilising mankind who were engrossed in nature living lives not much more further progressed than the proverbial Darwinian caveman . It has progressed to the current technological ages of fast internet communication , perhaps some good could be seen if it were not tainted by its  exploitative motives and methods , which  has at its heart greed that is stoking conflicts, sadly it appears to have no real sharing concepts .

    Instead of sharing in  technological innovations that could well bring benefits to everyone in every country of the world , it instead is hampered by fake leaders with little sense of decency and a business model of ” intoxicated greed ” . There is no foresight by any of them  or even a wish to carefully balance the needs of man , all creatures, and the environments we all need for healthy good living . Thus, the whole vision has gotten of hand and is heading for disaster, and no one knows how to stop it .

    Actually, there are great benefits to be had to opening up the world where cultures are shared, and comparisons can be seen in all aspects of each countries education systems and cultures . Currently, persons  are being fooled and exploited by a so-called intelligensia , while the real intelligensia are silenced . Sharing cultures can be highly beneficial. For instance, the perverted caste systems in India or the class systems of the English empire are now clearly seen to be bias, after all you are what you are , not only the family you are born into . Mass education has helped everyone in many ways  and should be in place for everyone,  promoting natural social mobility.

    So , there are benefits and downfalls of modern living , but the two can be harmonized with a balanced and fair approach .That is easily achieved when the genuine and sensitive intelligentsia influence affairs of state .The original purpose of the Vedas is clear , matters of scientific studies , sociology , balanced economics , justice, philosophical, and religious progression are essential and should always be ongoing and progressive and systematically taught .

    Everyone is searching after good leadership and hankering for a just society with mature outlooks to all matters of science and religion and matters of political affairs . The Vedas have much to offer , and shortly , a new Renaissance period will begin , actually, it’s began , education of body , mind, and consciousness that is so essential and that everyone needs and will be satisfied with.
