In a world where businessmen control the 3rd rate political classes, anything goes .
Like poisoning people literally with chemicals ,they are everywhere , and its getting worse . Everyone knows it but ignores it . The health effects of chemicals as well as radiation with our accessive computer and smartphone use will come back to haunt society . Plastic is another problem , it’s everywhere and even raining from the sky .
Thus, simple living and high thinking have been replaced by the illusions of a greater existence that, in reality, pollute our bodies , dumbs our intelligences, and agitates our minds .
Can anything be done to tame this out of control sophisticated animal .
Maybe in time. Vote in the intelligensia , avoid the fools who allow themselves to be controlled by those that do us harm .
Return us all to a balance within nature and a search for inner consciousness.
That’s the Vedic way.

Currently, the USA , China, and Russia remain dominant in the world and are , between them , with unofficial arrangements between themselves carving up the world . India remains independent , it prefers the traditional learned historical cultures rather than the modern path of extreme liberalisation chosen by EU a path that pours petrol onto the fire of the senses , and calling it enjoyable , whilst minds are agitated and anger along with unlimited lust is let loose , even on children via the Internet . The great ISLAMIC countries either have to tow the USA line or they are labeled as an antichrist , the Jewish state of Israel who do not recognise Jesus as a profit , their ancient priests handed Jesus to the Romans , are occasionally course one and different to USA for economic and security reasons. The USA has their back , and the Israeli lobby pays for USA politics, literally.
The EU lost the plot a long time ago and is being washed away in its centralised left liberalists ideals, which it appears addicted to . The two ladies running the EU should be put out to grass . The UK , under Starmer, who is the great but unfortunate EU lover , anx Russian hater , is endanger of being washed away the UK is in no man’s land .
Best find balances accross the world , respect of cultures, theological traditions and political systems, each to their own , with deep respect for each , no global one way world, thats thd model for greed and encroachment on others lives and territories. Conservation of family traditions, cultural traditions, and ancient theological values based on knowledge of mind , matter, and consciousness along with a natural compassion . The curtailing of the influences of scientific materialism along with the atheistic Darwinian survival of the fittest economics caused greedy financial institutions and countries that look to kill and exploit others’ economic systems and their governance.More on the Vedas and its in- built political systems later .

The symptoms of the soul are not just consciousness but also personality. Do you know of any individual consciousness particle that doesn’t exhibit it in one form or another individuality in inherant within the soul .
Even a particular tiny fish within an aquarium will exhibit particular ways of responding to circumstances and humans much more so than another of the group who dwell within the tank .
The human being is a special benediction granted by naterial nature , and much can be achieved by using the special intelligence in the correct ways .We should not because like a sophisticated animal. Direct communication with Divinity says every theological text is possible. The methods of communication are outlined clearly outlined.
Human beings must first overcome the lower animalistic traits described as lower modes of nature but summarised as lust , anger , greed , envy , and general illusion . Imperfect senses , cheating , mistakes, and bewildered consciousness affect the material personalities who are entrapped within the body and mind and identity with it .
An original pure personality , full of blissful, non envious, and loving exchanges, can be experienced within the highest realms of existence where Divinity and trancendental personalites dwell . The goal of life proper is to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead and His associates , they havd many times previously descended to these earthly planes and left records and instructions as well as knowledge of themselves.
The process of a purificatory lifestyle and the therapeutic endeavours are all contained within the Srimad Bhagavatam and Bhagavad Gita . The real purpose of human life is to throw off the mud of conditioned life .
New age philosophical and psychological quacks are misguiding many and adding more and more mud like substances that cover the original pure personality . Replacing authentic sastra or theological sciences with pseudo psychological teaching in the name of liberalisation and freedom is foolhardy.
One should return to the trancendental ways and the traditions of family values that chalk the progressive and the well trodden paths of the elevated saints along with their followers.
In introducing modern multicultural liberalisation of societies , we must look out for extremes that do more harm than good , although their intentions may have been to overcome many other types of misunderstandings and applications of traditions , but one should learn from authentic sources. The Vedic Way is the balanced way with the true intelligensia at its heart .

Decending wisdom or economics at any cost .
Wild horses, the unthinking, and the unintelligent
Karl Marx said religion suppressed people and thought he knew better . A path to freedom from conformity and authority , Karl thought , was intellectually , mentally, and physically highly appropriate and would bring great happiness . Why did he then and many others today, think it is appropriate to treat life in that way ? Life should not be a guessing game of following a speculative intellect. We have experience that a child needs the authority of the loving parent . A parent who has the appropriate experience and widom to nourish and guide the child . Obviously, conformity is the best course of action for the child . In bringing a child education and development of character both for the child , there is a balance to be struck between suppressing a child’s inner nature and insisting and imposing certain standards designed to bring out a child’s nature in healthy beneficial ways .
In reality Marx proudly sought to control people and bind them to his way of thinking , but who is his authority ? We can ask ourselves what knowledge he has ? Before accepting any authority, we must know who their authority is . If we find their speculative minds have cobbled up a philosophy in life , taken from other similarly minded speculative persons with world or scientific views , why would we want to put our faith in such speculative subjectivity . We must be very, very careful , not to place our faith in persons who are not worthy. Everything someone says or does needs our thoughtful considerations . One should consider how they know they know , and how do they know they know . It’s important in Vedic culture that the principal of knowledge decending rather than only ascending should be examined .Conservative values stem from traditional cultures and ultimately from scientific theological cultures, those that evaluate mind , matter and consciousness, all three should be objectively studied and clearly understood.
Generally, people are driven by their temporary material senses and minds and are reliant on a limited faltering intelligence and an accepting and rejecting mind that can be very easily out of control.
Like five wild horses, without guidance and supervision a chariot they are pulling will be headed for disaster. The horses are like our senses and the reign of the mind must bring them under control. That means the driver , the intelligence, needs to be selective of direction .An uncontrolled mind with no real intelligence can drag people into many unwanted situations and world veiws .
The intelligence is recommended in every theological science to be always in contact with his eternal passenger . The Supersoul or the Holy Ghost . Such theological intuitive searchings generate much inner inspiration . This decending process is criticality important for truth to become known . However, conformation is needed from those who historically have walked on the path , Divinity has pure representations, who know Him well, and they must be recognised. The Vedas indicates contact within the super subjective realm should be sought and identified . As a student, seeks a proven expert in any particular field of material knowledge.
Today, globalists , politicians, and scientists control the people and in the name of freedoms , bind the people in temporary illusions and uncontrolled hankering. Why , because it suits a particular economic plan that favours the exploitative business man . Economic development has superceded common sense. In reality, they, along with their enabelers, get the unthinking to follow the unintelligent and equally unthinking . They have no long-term vision , and profit at any cost is their motto .
Consequently, the horses of everyone’s senses and minds are completely out of control, and the world is becoming increasingly unstable with widespread suffering worldwide that is getting worse.
We must seek the super subjective realm and bring sanity back to everyone’s lives helping others do the same .We must all seek out the real intelligentsia .
The whole of the Bhagavad Gita gives us clear indications of who they are .We must accept the rational and logical part of our consciousness, and except God has rationale, and thus, communication between Him and His parts and parcels is always ongoing , seek truth and it will be found .

The ” beginning ” of Karma
A great and important philosophical question posed by Vrajanatha in Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s Jiva Dharma, the occupation of the soul .
The Vedas indicates we are manifest from Lord Balarama, the first expansion of Krishna, and because the soul is part of Him , and Krishna always been , we could conclude, so have we . Within Krishna are unlimited expansions , thus the simultaneous one and difference can be looked at in this way , or as Jiva Goswami says in his Tattva Sandarbha verse 43 , Krishna makes the impossible possible , by manifesting totally separate entities with free will .
We also have to understand the expression , “ time immemorial ,” we can not fathom times beginnings.
Balarama brings forth the ” dormant ” Jivas , it could be understood in this way , because He wants to increase Krishna’s pleasure. We are not dead stones or downloads of Balarama , but we have free will . The more we use our free will for its intended purpose , the more freedom we can experience . On our being “manifest ” , just as a good father tells us all about the proper and beneficial way to conduct life for our greatest benefits , similarly Balarama , our original father , by His example brings freedom of expression, love and attraction . Spontaneously, the living beings reveal their consciousness by their own personality and personal attractions . Love is always voluntary and can never be forced . The complete and full existence of Divinity. the most complete, is only ever understood by love. Indeed Sanatana Goswami has shown in his litrature in the pastime of Gopa Kumar , that when Gopa Kumar finally returned to a spiritual world, the Lord was waiting and embraced him saying “where have you been I have missed you and have been waiting?” Such is the Love of the Supreme Father of all .
It’s indicted by Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur , the jiva enters a tatasta state , which is understood as the impersonal Brahman , those that are not inclined to share their consciousness remain in impersonal bliss . However , for want of activity , they come to the material planes , to ultimately refine their activity and experience life without God as their friend. Ultimately we must learn that Krishna is Rasaraja the king of exchanges of love .This movement of the jiva from the brahman energies is completed by a ” transporational” glance , the living being is injected into matter.
Each Jiva reveals their state of consciousness , thus the Jiva is connected automatically either to Maha maya or Yoga maya ,i.e., the spiritual or material energies , according to their free spirit . It appears our consciousness having this free spirit, connected itself to Maha maya , we are in the material realms . Balarama obviously detected such independence of desires and arrangements that they were made , automatically through ethereal planes in the multidimensional unlimited space time . Initially with relatively exalted consciousness . Mahamaya or Durga Devi has the task of providing an illusion of artificial lordship and thus temping one to enjoy, and further entanglements begin .
Some people say God knows everything, but does He know when you will turn in Love towards Him , and how you will love Him and the intensity ?
In conditioned consciousness, one is firmly in God’s energy, as the high court judge knows the destination of the criminal, so a harmful soul is under God’s grips , with predicable consequences . Not a pure soul , he has his full freedom and is consequently unpredictable, love is dynamic. Ever increasing loving exchanges with the master of love Divinity or Krishna takes place unlimitedly.
Not too much oneness , not too much difference..this needs considering..
“That means we all individual beings, we are individual constitutionally. God is the father or creator or whatever, or the source of all life, or source of our existence. Whatever you like, you can say. So we have…, we have been created in that way. Eko bahu syāma. God has become many. This is also version of the Vedas that many, all these many, we are also god. Just like the fire diffuses its sparks. The sparks coming out of the fire, it is the…, they are also part and parcel of the fire. Similarly we, we are all parts and parcels of the Supreme.”
“Now, He wanted to become many. He wanted to become many, so He has become many, and we are that many. So we are not different from God. We are not different from God, but because He wanted to become many, so we are the many. Now, thing is, when God wanted to become many, there must be some purpose behind this. Otherwise, why did He like to become many? He was one, one without second. That’s all right. But why did He become many? So that is a question, one must like to put, that “Why God became many?”
“So that is, that answer is that because God is sac-cid-ānanda-vigraha [Bs 5.1],”
“[Kṛṣṇa who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.]”
“He’s all-pleasure—therefore, without many, there is no pleasure. Just like here I sit down the whole day alone, but I become more active and more pleasing when you come. Whenever we want to enjoy some pleasure, pleasure is not enjoyed alone. Pleasure is enjoyed with many. Now God is by nature… He’s ānandamayo ‘bhyāsāt [Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12].”
The words of Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada.

Spiritual life is a place where one’s pure consciousness is uncontaminated by the inferia and material energies of Krishna, because those energies are clearly seen as energies of Divinities making , and with pure devotional moods they are used spiritually thus maya means to see things seperated from God .The devotees make the best use of a bad bargain. The spiritual realms are a soul on soul experience . It’s a place not constructed of atoms , elements , or compounds that are accompanying the flickering subtle conditioned mind programmed to be a self-serving tool . The material consciousness with its body and mind is forever accepting and rejecting sensual , mental, and intellectual subjects . The intellect has been shaped by many other conditioned souls , and the formation of opinions and sensuality likings goes back many many lives . The science of consciousness within space time is extensively covered in the Vedas in incredible detail . Just how such conditions began and how they continue should be of interest to everyone. Envy , neglect, or self seeking can be a problem when it comes to the development of the finest aspects of knowledge. What is the nature of beauty , love, and perfectly situated lives free from material impositions ? Birth , death , old age, and disease are artificial impositions for the conscious state , no one welcomes them , but 99.9 % do not seriously understand them .
One should also seriously consider the analytical nature of Vedic psychologies . How, for instance, has our consciousness been conditioned and for millions of lives within various species of life , each enjoying and suffering in specific ways , a tailored machine fit for purposes. Actually, there are 8,400,000 different species of life to become absorbed within .
Dust on a mirror is wiped clean , revealing the clear, uncontaminated reflection that was present all along, spiritual life means no more dust, no more species.More on this soon

The artistic community in all their colours, ie writers , film makers , musicians, etc etc , are serving a good purpose within society if they inspire people to examine life to think philosophically about it utalising the objective sciences that are within everyone’s vision ..
If the artists sell out to scientific materialism, Darwinian hypothesis or extreme forms of political liberalism or extreme forms of dictatorships, then they fail in their duties to uplift or examine . Then they have lost their independent artistic natures and have become tools of the political or scientific systems.Life is never extreme. Rather, there are countless paths that consciousness can follow , and following the consciousness is a responsive universe awarding the inculcabable bodies and situations spread far and wide within this localised planet and within the universe which is part of a multiuniversal reality says the Vedas .
Conformity is meant for education and enlightenment, and it is Divinities’ desire for everyone to experience the best that life can offer . Everything is relatively good, but we must understand absolutes if we want to realise our full potential.
That’s the Vedic way , and expert members of the intelligentsia know how everything is to be balanced.
The unthinking person creates havoc and does great harm .
The Srimad Bhagavatam bring insights into the matters , elucidating the best of all the Vedas and puranas

One Vedic perspective.
It can be seen as
Geeks and quasi intellectuals manipulating history , media , science , politics , religion , and social sciences , with their psychological attempt to make their one world libeterian culture to suit the economic vision of conglomerates . The world is their’s for the taking , they think . The world of scientific materialism with Darwins shadow darkening traditional cultures . Like wisdom of family values stemming from tried and tested theological cultures and predominantly localised economies based on non encroachment , respect of others cultures , as well as caring for every living thing that’s found in nature and of nature itself ….More on this soon..
But why not ride the right waves ..
Yoga and great theological cultures are like surfing.
The surfers are sitting out in the ocean watching the waves roll in and crash into the shore , they neglect to ride them and only choose the best of them .
They are waiting for far, far greater waves to ride, and that can really satisfy them Although in the material world, everything crashes at death , some thoughts and desires are beneficial and progress our journey to pure consciousness. Transformations of energies are occurring. Krishna’s material or spiritual energies are interrelated and can liberate or entangle .
Nothing is separate from Krishna , but choose the right waves of energy and transform the highest of the waves of the best of culture into pure spirit .
Bhagavad Gita teaches how .

Uniquely individuals Uniquely experiencing .
“Every snowflake is unique. While snowflakes can be broadly categorized into different shapes, the specific details of each individual snowflake’s intricate structure are highly unlikely to be identical to another. This is because snowflakes form in a dynamic environment, and the conditions they encounter as they fall, such as temperature and humidity, constantly change, leading to unique growth patterns.”
Whilst it seems impossible to comprehend that each snowflake could exhibit such unique appearance, it’s equally incomprehensible that each particle of consciousness , a living being , are feeling and undergoing a unique emotional and sensual experience in their own right. even when in very similar circumstances . No individual feels and experiences in exactly the same way , and that goes for every creature throughout the universe . “Think of a huge shoal of fish in the Caribbean.”
The power and unlimited potencies of God are on display in innumerable ways and can be seen easily exhibited , or , for some, not exhibited at all .That’s another side of Krishna’s innumerable and incalculable energies . Those energies can enlighten or cause confusion and doubt .
Ultimately, every individual has an individual relationship with the Supreme Autocrat Krishna , Krishna is very, very personable and is awaiting us to uniquely turn our attention to him .
Jivera svarupa hoy .
We are all intimately related to Krishna, our real well wisher , and His devotees reflect those feelings.

The Christian cultures, as they are sometimes presented, are a little confusing, to say the least .
I say that because when ill fortune hits a particular Christian , some believe it’s the work of devil’s, demons, or witches that are cursing them .They have no references to previous lives and think one life means heaven or hell eternally , so their previous sowing and their current reaping are not connected in their eyes , they blame the evil spirits, not themselves.
Is this a true reflection on the truth of Christian theological positions , I don’t think so .
Every theologically driven culture has its strengths and weakness, and throughout history, infiltrators and speculations can easily arise within them all .
We have great appreciation for all theological cultures, but every one of them needs references to traditions and roots , and it must be clearly demonstrated. God is a rational person , and all His dealings make sense. Free will and determinism need to be properly explained.
As you sow, so shall you reap can mean many things , and those who say it only means heaven or hell forever appear very, very immature theologians.
And those that explain bad fortune is coming from the devil or evil and is a curse , also needs reference, we need thorough examination and much further considerations theologically as to what is meant. Nothing is left to the sentimentalist when it comes to theological matters , but rather, it must also be scientific, logical, and show the evidence of the obvious rationale of an all merciful God .Mercy above justice is another consideration.
The soul is eternal, and the symptoms of the soul are consciousness , the Vedas clearly say and define consciousness. That consciousness is scientifically shown to be in all creatures , not just humans is an undisputed fact . Thou shall not kill in that case should mean what it says .
