Those chains that bind you …

Having fallen into a dark, deep well, how would a person climb out ? After all, it’s deep and very dark, and the sides are wet and smooth and slippery.

The Vedas description of the material world and the impossibility of taking oneself out by one’s own means has been given in that way .
The Vedas says that in this age, three things are needed for a comprehensive rescue remedy.
1. The holy names of Divinity …the rope that has no limits.
2 . Those who can  throw the ropes , Sri Guru and the saints.
3. The scriptures, both in the form of written words and spoken words, they are the pulling mechanism..
Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami has made provisions for the entire world , his movement and others like them are distributing this trancendental knowledge,  and the relief work is underway.  Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has garlanded the whole world with the Holy names and added the highest knowledge of how to love of God to them . Full realisations of what Mahāprabhu has brought can be experienced by the most unqualified persons. Nityananda prabhu is orchestrating everything very nicely , and His agents are practically conducting the relief work all over the world.

What are the chains ?

I want to control the environment and not serve the environment. This consciousness means one enters into the material energies ,the land of  Maya , Maya means , that which is not .
The land of misconceptions of every kind imaginable are on full show and beyond , in other universes . Starting with the smallest living being , a worm or a microbe,  to the national consciousness and their leaders who conduct vicious wars with one kind or another . Every being  is attempting  Lordship over others .A harmonized consciousness state is a beginning of knowledge. It’s  a recognition of the equality of all beings and a self-evident truth , we are all particles of consciousness , and knowledge of spiritual dualism is essential knowledge . Absolute knowledge and of true position is found when we are realised in  knowledge , by practice.  We are a  particles of consciousness and have the ability to harmonize with other particles as well as  nature in a peaceful and contented spirit , this occurs when we realise the cause of consciousness. We can then be free from artificial desires that haunt us and hound us . We can be totally free from the influences of a false identity , that of  being a material body with  a  changing mind or flawed  intellect . Beyond that, we find  the plane of soulful expression.  Automatically and very  quickly, this absolute knowledge of consciousness is granted by Nityananda prabhu and Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Their representatives. Very swiftly , one frees oneself from all artificial designations within the illusions of Maya, and ultimately, the Supreme Personality of Godhead can be fully realised .He is the originator of consciousness and reveals Himself  .Sri Guru is the representative of Nityananda prabhu . It’s Nityananda prabhu’s and Sri Gurus causeless mercy, which allows us into the ocean of trancendental bliss .  The deepest and darkest well is no obstacle , Nityananda prabhu’s rope reaches everywhere, and no previous qualifications are needed. Just grab the rope of the Divine Holy names and hear from the saints .

All you need is love .

“Pure love for Kṛṣṇa is eternally established in the hearts of the living entities. It is not something to be gained from another source. When the heart is purified by hearing and chanting, this love naturally awakens.”

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, in his writing, says love is everywhere. Even in other species, you will find love and protection . In the rainy season, an ant picks up its eggs and moves them to a safer place .
Krishna is in the hearts of all beings. All beings are one and different from Krishna .Thus, God is intimately united with us , we have forgotten Him , but He never forgets or neglects.
Love me, love my dog .
The question is, what type of love? There are different types and different degrees .
The love of the parent for the child , the love of the nephew for the uncle, the love of the student for the teacher , the love of the friend for his friend , the love of the husband and wife .
So, no doubt love is situated in the heart. Its perfection comes through , in our case, learning to love , and ultimately,  learning to love God , that is the theological and philosophical messages of great cultures.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu recently came to teach how to love God ,He gave a practical example how to love God and what love of God means , its not just a part time sentiment.  In this particular time period, he has bestowed upon all beings  the highest degree of love on the most undeserving , something bestowed on those who need it most.
The inner chambers of the heart of the Supreme Goddess of Fortune are  being revealed. How do you obtain this greatest of good fortune? By associating and hearing from someone who has had the good fortune to have received it , and it’s open to one and all .
Srila Gour Govinda Swami is very expert at elaborating and explaining the details and the complete process of Bhakti , the yoga of love .

This has to be understood carefully . Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja also said one should follow the heart .. but as well ,  the progressive and systematic process of the sciences of Bhakti given by Srila Rupa Goswami. From Madhva Acarya to Ramanuja Acarya to Srila Visnu Swami to Srila Nimbarkacarya , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Goswami Maharaja has carefully incorperated all their teachings .
Ultimately , Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja brought us progressively to the teaching of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu . Mahaprabhu’s conversation with Ramananda Raya also explains the systemic paths of devotion as does , karma yoga , jnana yoga , niskarma yoga , astanga yoga and Bhakti yoga .
It’s also to be considered that pure devotees have specific Rasa and relationships with Krishna. Thus, they each elaborate on Bhakti rasa in different ways ..
Through the param para, initially, one is bestowed freedoms , in love, there are unlimited freedoms

The world has many purposes because there are inculcabable living entities within it each with particular purposes to fulfil or to enjoy or suffer the results of  and we thought the algorithmic tracking of billions of internet users  and simultaneously so was quite a feat . The  Vedas gives an insight to all the goings on within the universe and also tells of what everyone is looking for .

Every living being has rights, and any encroachments into another territory or consciousness which impacts in one way or another brings entanglements. One is duty bound one way or another and will have to be paid or pay. Harmonized  and fair society is based on respect, respect implies knowledge , and no respect implies  ignorance.  The originally intended leaders by Vedic calculations,  the actual intelligentsia, are those who execute moral and ethical justice systems within societal affairs and within the judiciary as a whole .

The leaders must have proper reference points. The absolute universal principles are well known by the wise who  understand  fully scientific dualism , mind , matter, and consciousness.

The first class persons who act with dignity and are knowledgeable of such universal principles both  locally,  nationally and  internationally and especially in their  own personal lives  are those we should look to , those who are devoid of such qualities  should be avoided and no question of such persons leading societies…….but they do …….whats going on ?

Liberalism by the  unthinking religion by the  unthinking

Money,  money , and money are brighter than sunshine sweeter than honey . The mantra of the global capital liberalists. Get  money, whatever it takes ,and wherever you can get it , profits at any costs , including the lives of people , of if it means destroying their cultures or traditions.  If necessary, instigate revolution in their systems of government and spread propaganda if it means our profits and influence can increase as well as our monopolies. What we see is a global den of eniquity . The libertine global conglomerates with their puppy political classes ,  they just dont care who they hurt or what they destroy. They have no brain substance to care . Markets of immorality of all kinds , the favourite of Mr Musk and the like . Unrestricted sense pleasures  , a fully sexualised society for profits to die for , literally . This type of  consciousness , led by the unthinking and unintelligent businessmen and their paid puppies called political leaders are  increasing more and more the lower animal propensities of the supposed humans .The  Darwinian world , the  world of scientific materialism, is fueling the drive for  ever new sensual pleasures in the material world . Capitalism thrives on all sorts of addictions , the biggest pull is sex . It’s the most addictive and theological culture knows how it is to be regulated and understood.  If not, it ruins family lives ,lives in general , degrades long-established cultures, and degrades a supposed civilised society. Sophisticated animals at most can describe those who have lost touch with their consciousness and are overly plugged into the gross body and who chase the mind anywhere it wants to go , a civilisation of hogs,  dogs,  camels and asses .

However , in realistic theological terms, there must be a balanced approach . In todays world, we will find, for instance, extreme versions of religions and speculative interpretations of scripts that are not sensible or credible . They are often tainted with suppression,  dogma, and misunderstanding of various kinds of  human psychological conditions . One can not suppress a population artificially,  but rather one should introduce practical regulations and restrictions for the systematic progression of happy educational cultures . That’s the Vedic approach . Currently, in some parts of the Islamic world , women are said to be forced to cover their heads and faces . The idea was to protect men , the ladies are the most alluring substance on earth . However, men should learn of higher consciousness and cultivate knowledge,  thus learning of the glories of the inner sef .The ladies and men should help each other and protect each other , that’s the culture . Suppressed female society’s can be  unnecessarily harrased and not given the opportunities they seek . On the other hand, in the super liberal west , extreme liberalism leads to school girls’ dresses being so short that they may just as well go to school in their underwear. It also has led in the UK  and the West to abortions in increasing numbers, and the new law indicates no time limits on when the child can be killed in the womb . One MP is quite happy for a 37 week old  child to be killed , this type of liberalism is leading to a mental health epidemic.
This extremely sexualised society with unthinking businessmen making up rules is absolutely unacceptable .The intelligentsia must take control. The  political classes are not able to  organise governance without a credible intelligentsia. The politicians are rather also contaminated themselves with the same decease, and they are currently controlled and infiltrated by  ruthless money men . Brainwashed populations are easily manipulated by social media and mainstream media , so easy picking .
Many people are still sane and  decent , there is a kick back going on to the super liberalism on display.  The problem is that money men are  absolutely ruthless . The government must take the side of the learned , ethical, and moral intelligentsia.

The middle way is the Vedic way .

Preservation of culture,  family values, and traditions are essential and balanced  educations , alongside theologically driven cultures and sciences of all kinds . Philosophically driven cultures with a scientific understanding of dualism , means , mind , matter, and consciousness as seperated energies , its this that makes up reality, this widom is  key to good governance

Gaudia Vaisnavism

In Gaudiya Vaisnavism, one’s service to the pure devotee is essential and comes in many forms,  but ones own personal bhajan and understandings of Sri Guru along with the previous acaryas through their writings and teachings is essential , that in one sense is the greatest service . From there, many things either in this life or the next spring forth .

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 ultimate personal deeply spiritual concerns for his services with the eternal realms of Vrndavana , executed with  confidentiality in Srimati Radharani’s services , but in another form .

The never-ending cycles of a material matrix within universal dreams

Einstein spoke of the space time continuum.  This also parallels  Vedic scientific truths. The journeys of the individual particles of consciousness . The  soul, with its independence and free will and the consequences of its desires and actions .  A self-propelled journey , all contained within the Mahatattva, the total material energies an expansion of Mahavisnu yoganidra sleep . The multiuniversal universe ,the individual particles are totally dependent,  but think themselves independent. They are utilising God energies are a expressing a given free will , or beginning to wake up from this surreal world and by Yoga are utilising  a God-given free wont . Free wont means one controls the demands of the mind and senses that are imploring them  to act as an enjoyer of matter separate from God . This is the beginning of a  disciplined life and a way out of the universal merry go round of birth and death .

Re space time in Vedic terms.

The past is affecting the present , and the present will affect the future and curiously enough also the past on some occasions.

Ultimately, it’s said in the Vedas that our independent life is a temporary long term dream , in reality  we are completely dependent on Divinity for everything ,and under the supervision of agents within a responsive universe. Our arrangement has been  awarded,  given, or  sanctioned by Divinity . Our power to act or be restricted has been calculated, and the reckoning is according to previous interactions within the responsive universe.  Divinity Himself, it’s told in the Vedas, has to give the impetus to act and calculate to the living beings he helps and provides the intelligence for the living beings to enter into the material machine like body and take up a  tiny artificial and temporary material life . Everything is  happening under the watch of the supersoul , who remains with us in a conditioned life . Such are the complexities of the material matrix that Divinity Himself has to demonstrate to the living beings and give impetus  directly or indirectly, of how to utilise life and become a first-class  independent enjoyer . First Divinity acts , first Divinity sees , through His unlimited expansions,  then the entity picks up inspiration and follows .

So, the multidimensional space time entanglements of the individual soul are first enacted by Divinity , this is elaborated upon by Srila Jiva Goswami in his Bhagavat Sandarbha . With that in mind and considering  what Shakespeare said ,” life is like a stage , and we are actors ,”  who is to say that , the 1920s 1930s 1940s 1950s  and all of those , what seem , inconsequential activities that took place during those times. And that are inconsequential when compared to the eternal energies and eternal time , are not constantly being played out somewhere within the multidimensional universes .Perhaps you could go back to the 1920s era . After all, how many planets are in our universe, and according to the Vedas,  there are countless universes .

The inconceivable energies and consciousness of Divinity have to be accepted as a reality before one can progress in knowledge of Divinity and His workings . One has to admit one is firmly in the grips of His energies…The Darwinian hypothesis has to be shed …Everything is happening by the supreme desire of Divinity , this consciousness is scientifically an objective fact , if one looks and feels intuitively it is realised. and much objective calculations

As much as Lord Krishna Himself was appearing to act like a ksatriya or a cowhearder but was not entangled in action reactions of karma’s or any of the energies of the material world which are selfishly motivated in one way or another , similarly Krishna’s pure devotees act within this world. Krishna says one who see action in inaction and inaction in action action is situated in knowledge.
Thus the establishment of the Devi Varna Ashram within societal affairs are trancendental affairs meant to bring about a revolution in the consciousness of mankind ..That is the ultimate mission of Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami and all those who help him either within or outside ISKCON….

Much more on this science soon

http://www.thevedicspectator.com

The correct way to understand how the social religious Vedic societies are to benefit the world , along with its natural and inherant systems bringing social and spiritual mobility for everyone,  reinstating and correctly interpreting its original purposes , beyond the perversions of smarta  caste consciousness , is simply to add Krishna consciousness to an  already existing social system .Four classes of persons are found in all societies , What their particular duties are have been established by Krishna. The founder of ISKCON AC Bhavtivedanta Swami would speak about society as being so many zeros. ZERO is meaningful when the number one is added  , and then so many zeros take on substance. The founder Acarya of ISKCON Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada would say you only have to add Krishna consciousness to what you like to do , and what are your natural inclinations .  The social political proceedings, along with  progressive lives for all, will  occur if the right persons are doing the correct occupations they have the psychological makeup for , importantly, the motivations  for all persons must be linked to scientific dualism , the underlying principle of culture of consciousness as different than matter . Within all societies, different persons have been given  by Divinities arrangements.  There are the intelligentsia , both of the scholarly kind , and the spirituality realised kind , who understand body, mind, and consciousness . They should be the guiding light because they are pure , detached, and devoted to Divinity,  they are expert in understanding every aspect of the Vedas and its practical implementations . Also, within societal affairs, we will find persons of valour , just persons,  protectors of society who feel for the people and want the best for everyone ,  they are warriors and administrators or leaders of mankind , but they are always advised by the intelligentsia.

Naturally, there are business persons who love to turn a profit and can keep economics running nicely , and then we have craftsmen and workers .

Everyone  within the greater body of society simply needs to add  spiritual knowledge ,  i.e. , knowledge of body mind and consciousness,  dualism , to their lives . Scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis stops this process , which leads to libertine cultures and sophisticated animal life .If Krishna consciousness or scientific dualism is taught, then motivations and directions change for everyone,  the self-evident truth of equality of all beings is understood, and sensitivity follows .

When the top of society is correctly situated ,  the rest of society automatically follows . Social and spiritual mobility is included within the original Varna Ashram system . Degradation of our world is in full swing and perversions of all kinds , this happens when someone unfit , or a particular group of people who are demons gang together , and  think of themselves as superior and need no lessons from anyone , including God Himself .

540 sextillion miles.

Says modern science, meaning

5.4×10235.4 cross 10 to the 23rd power5.4×1023 or 540,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles.

Modern science assumes the universe three dimensional. However, the Vedas brings us to the realisations of  the multidimensional universe . So , the measurement of the Vedic universe incorporates aspects of the universe that are near and yet far away from limited senses . Certainly, there are red shift anomalies in the calculations of modern science, Red shifts appear much closeer than they are expected,  as Sadaputa prabhu,  of Dr Richard Thompson, mentioned in his book  on Vedic cosmology . Are the stars so far away ?  on one level , maybe , on another level, maybe not .

For instance, the Vedic cosmological calculations describe multidimensional space , and only 800 miles above this planet, an Upadeva planet exist in their own particular dimension , mystics and yogis can at times commune or even commute the this plane .

The greatly renowned Vedic cosmological scholar in Gaudiya Vaisnavism says this ..

“Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Thakura, recognized as a master of both Siddhantic Vedic astronomy and Puranic literature, provided specific measurements regarding the size of the universe based on classical Vedic texts

. He maintained that the universe is vast, egg-shaped (brahmanda), and, while immense, is only one of innumerable universes in the material creation. 

Measurements and Structure 

• Circumference: Citing the Siddhanta-siromani, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati gave the circumference of this universe as 18,712,069,200,000,000×818 comma 712 comma 069 comma 200 comma 000 comma 000 cross 818,712,069,200,000,000×8 miles.
• Diameter: The inner part of the universe is described as having a diameter of approximately 5,956,200 crore yojanas (roughly 47,649,600 billion miles), according to traditional interpretations.
• Enveloping Layers: The universe is not just the inner space but is enveloped by seven material layers—water, fire, air, space, mind, intelligence, and ego. Each layer is ten times thicker than the previous one.( these layers could be understood as the potentials of the atomic and quantum realms ready to respond to the needs of the classical physical world)
• Total Size: When accounting for these seven layers, the total diameter is calculated as over 5×10145 cross 10 to the 14th power5×1014 billion miles, which is often interpreted as approximately 90 billion light-years. 

Perspective on Cosmology 

• Inconceivable Size: He emphasized that these dimensions are inconceivable to the tiny brain of a human being and cannot be fully measured by human scientists.
• Innumerable Universes: He highlighted that this universe is considered the smallest among the innumerable universes, which exist in the material creation.
• Vs. Modern Science: He supported the view of the universe as a round sphere (bhu-mandala) by citing authorities like the Surya Siddhanta, Siddhanta Siromani, and Aryabhata.
• Purpose of Knowledge: He taught that the ultimate purpose of this knowledge is not mere physical measurement, but to recognize the supreme potency of God (Kṛṣṇa). 

In summary, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati presented the Vedic view of a very large, layered, and multi-layered universe that is relatively small compared to the total material, and ultimately, spiritual creation. “

http://www.thevedicspectator.com

Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur indicates in his Bhagavad Gita Chapter 4 text 10 that by performing jnana tapasya, one can attain realisations of the eternal nature and appearance of Divinity. “One becomes purified by austerity in the form of tolerating the burning poison of wrong ideas  or thinking , wrong logic, and wrong arguments.” he says .
The Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas have some stalwart scholars amongst them Srila Rupa Goswami, Srila Jiva Goswami to begin with and of course Srila Visvanatha Cakravati Thakur and in recent times ,Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami, Srila BR Sridhar Swami and the extremely intelligent and very practical Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami who miraculously brought Krishna consciousness all over the world inspiring and teaching some of his leading disciples…

Ramanuja acarya says wise persons give up attachments,  effections or fears, or anger for those who speak nonsensical ways ,  because the wise are throughly absorbed in meditations,  hearing,  chanting and singing and speaking of the glories of Krishna and His associates and cannot really be disturbed .

Material calculations of every kind ….within modern societies

Much unthinking much speculation.

Mass education in the West centred around scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis is facilitating a host of unoriginal and unthinking persons , each of whom follow like sheep or lemmings off a cliff previously established speculative persons. The world veiw of the West in saturated with the influences of these two fallacies. The exploitative economy of the world centred on trickle down economics on a  world scale is a falsehood.  The self-evident truth of the equality and equal rights of all is swallowed up by the Darwinian survival of the fittest macro model . The educational systems generally grant pieces of paper they call a degree after being indoctrinated,  and persons think themselves  smart . Generally, such people who even have  higher degrees or PHD’S step up as government advisors and bring with them their unoriginal and unthinking indoctrinated worldview. If we take a look at Western societies and their so-called  governance and compliance systems , we can see the mess they get the world in and its getting worse. The speculative sciences that  they continue to present ,and  their unthinking ideas ,  are taught to other unthinking persons , in the name of objective sciences , although they are clearly not .  It’s no wonder that the great and very honest and objective Richard Feynman said, “that you can have a pocket full of PHD’S and still be a complete idiot “…look at the world. The world is immediately put back on track with scientific dualism , knowledge of consciousness and matter as two distinct substances , this knowledge has deep implications and ramifications , about the way we treat the world and other people within it . Knowledge of the equality of all and a  respect of all cultures is the Vedic way,  and the way of the sensitive philosophically astute intelligentsia.
