The cor purposes of Bhakti yoga, described by Srila Rupa Goswami, Srila Sanatana Gosvami, and Srila Ragganatha dss Goswami can be achieved by anyone , their karmic condition are not considered, rather abandoned. However, if one has opulences of good karma, one can and should use them in devotion to Krishna, but they alone are not the qualification to enter spiritual understandings or enter by meditation and remembrances Krishna lila .. Thus, smarta Brahminism in all its various forms and snobbery have been totally rejected by Mahāprabhu and Nityananda prabhu and the pure love from any souls , even the most fallen has been immediately accepted by them . The real bone fide Gurus immediately recognises this type of love and accepts such a person as a disciple. If a Guru makes material considerations about disciples, he or she is not an advanced Guru ..
The astrological angle ….
People who overly rate the power of the reading’s of astrological calculations in a modern age should consider wisdom of how to read the stars are not part-time armchair sidelines . Rather astrologers must have certain purity and be directed by the demigods themselves so as to clarify matters and read properly the ever-changing karmic synchronicities that are moving in different directions according to a particular persons life style and sacrifices , particularly of those directed towards Divinity. We are not dead stones , or set in stone ..generally astrological matters are used by materially ambitious persons who are overly anxious for successs and happiness , happiness and distress comes and go like the winter and summer season , says Krishna , importantly one should conduct trancendental sacrifice, without any expectations of personal benefits, that’s Krishna’s recommendation .Bhagavad Gita tells us why .. Which great astrologer predicted the two massive events of covid or the changes from a unipolar world to a multipolar one ? The answer, I believe, is none.. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Take a closer look at what you identify with and whyWhen one strongly identifies with a particular outlook of a person or group of persons who may express particular strong scientific , philosophical or political views that can somehow convince , one could be said to be investing ones whole life in another’s world veiw. We should not sacrifice our own personal thinking power along with contemplative internal thinking . Placing faith and trust in another’s world veiw is a huge step to take. Scientifically speaking, for instance, we can consider the following statements.
A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of a natural world that has been vigorously tested and repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment , it’s never guessing but based on real events in a real world. We can also say for sure , and leading evolutionary scientists will also agree , Macro evolutionary hypothesis is not at all proven fact based science . It’s actually far from it , it’s a hypothesis based on micro evolution, which is a natural outcome of environmental changes. Honest scientists will surely tell you that much guessing is involved. Micro evolution does not mean macro evolution . Especially because without a mutational math calculation, it’s virtually a pipe dream, and it is not a phenomenon seen in the historical records of a real world. It has not been repeatedly confirmed in any findings . Also, through extensive and long-winded experimentation, it’s seen that molecules do not move towards life within a laboratory. A primodial soup of the Miller Uray kind remains totally unproven and pure guessing is involved. It’s been over forty years since Miller Uray, and no progress has been made.
Yet this crucial information seems to pass people by . If we look at the educational systems and the governance of it , it’s hardly surprising . Students have been taught not to be critical of the Darwinian hypothesis , and are not taught the alternative, intelligent design. They have, however, been taught to be critical of all philosophy and theological sciences based on dualism. Thus, todays students strongly identify with a Darwinian world view , and the whole investment of their temporary and fast-moving lives, become soley materialistic and fixed in this Darwinian world veiw .
This could be said to be deliberate, it very much suits the economic development syndrome of the crazed conglomerates who keep on producing any amount of goods of all kinds to satisfy an ever agitated mind and senses that will never find satisfaction. Dualism teaches the body wont be satisfied, the consciousness needs satisfying. The conglomerates like to think the sources of the materials for their goods are never going to deplete , and they don’t care what it takes to get them .Wars , famine , environmental damage, or natural habitats of animals made into wastelands .
So when persons base their world view on someone’s world view without any critical thinking , we have got to ask why ? It means education has failed, and when a scientific hypothesis is presented as fact based science , it again means education is a cheating process. We need sincere and strong critical thinking of the scientific kind in order to understand mind , matter, and consciousness. Our worldview and goals drastically change when science is not a spoon-fed indoctrination but instead based on the reality of an objective world, and the science’s are self-evident.
The original intention of the arts of all kinds , and the best purposes of its messaging or imagery are realised when a particular exhibition induces people to think or feel differently about a particular subject , or in much deeper terms , deep philosophically based musings can occure reflecting on the many mysterious life happenings that surround us , both locally or universally. The greatest of the artist messaging will always be worthy to hear or see or contemplate . Human beings need to be encouraged to think carefully and deeply, and with sensitivities for all brings , artisans help in this mindset .The Vedas have particular portions dedicated to the arts and their crucial messaging. Good art is also based on dualism and the in-depth searches for answers. Good art also reflects the beauty and mysterious workings of our universe and will always point to a reasoning behind everything.
In these days of scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis , indicating one life one death , the arts and the artists have sadly declined in quality and have become a shadow of their former selves . There are no mass protests even if mass killings take place , not like the 1960s. Artists have become shallow and accepting and are embedded into a perverse system. We see even politically, the artists of today are in a sorry state , they are commercially driven and careful not to upset the apple cart . Unlike, for instance, John Lennon among others in the mid-60s .
Here is Ai take ..
Art is a vast field of human creativity expressing ideas, emotions, and skills through various mediums like painting, sculpture, music, literature, or performance, aiming to evoke experiences, beauty, or thought, stemming from Latin roots meaning “skill” or “craft”.
Vedic arts are of many kinds , everyone of them delve into the consciousness journey and the wonders of universal affairs, which reflects the greater consciousness of Divinity along with His peace and justice..
The Vedas indicates the waves of the conditioned consciousness in the form of desire , mental hankering , and a vast range of variables of the intellectual platforms , some of which can be useful on the path of liberation .These waves of conditioned consciousness, which are imposed upon the original spiritual consciousness, will respond to the atomic realms , our new bodies and situations are already taking shape . Space time and conditioned consciousness interlink whilst conditioned consciousness carries on .
Thus the past , present and future particals in the form of atoms , elements and compounds were and are destined to arrive at our doorstep, as much as an observer observes and has an impact whilst observing, as the senses and mental energies become engaged and entangled in one way or another. . The Vedic responsive karmic universe .
Scientific materialism is dismissed entirely in the Vedas .
The geopolitical scholars say .. UKRAINE being the historical centre of Russian Culture and its theological base , was the bridge too far ,when Nato moved in , Putin has been warning for three years , before the war , John Mearsheimer comments . The libeterians and the business conglomerates cannot infiltrate such historical significant parts of where Russia originally stemmed from ., and spread liberalisation and criticism of family and theological traditions . That why Bethlehem will never be exclusively in the hands of Islam .
President John Kennedy rightly praised Russian historical cultures music , arts , sciences, we can not judge Russia for its days as outright communists .. They are moving with the times , but the Russian and Chinese government as India exercise more control over the business man , who needs it . In the West, the businessman controls the government.. The administration should have an intelligentsia to guide it , but not the ruthless businessmen who care only for profit at any cost …..clear to see … So both cultures need to get balanced.. The idea that the West is superior in its ” democracies ” is folly .Educated democracies are badly needed , or else fools vote in fools , who silence the intelligentsia. http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Stephen Hawkins thought towards the end of his life that the universe just popped out of some random quantum and unspecified field, so perhaps consciousness is of a similar nature . Universes and consciousness are just popping out of anywhere ,he proposed . Not, of course , God ,say the atheistic Darwinian or follower of scientific materialism , that’s ” impossible “ The late and great Sadaputa prabhu joked about this, saying, ” Here is a point , and here is another point and here another, which one did the universe or consciousness pop out of “ Of course, indeed, Krishna is within every atom , He is also outside the atom . Everything stems from that very same Krishna, including consciousness. He is the supreme ” point ” we might say.
Cern ….and the chasing of particles …..
The Vedas would indicate that Higgs Boson is just the beginning of a series of smaller and smaller particles that lead to the ethereal plane . The subtle has an inherant connection to every kind of matter . Consciousness in conditioned life is attracted and simultaneously attached to matter , in one sense, it’s its cause . God does not manifest matter for his pleasure. it’s for our independence. He does so because we desire to live separately from Him . Krishna’s responsive universe makes all arrangements , ultimately stemming from Him the cause of all causes, mind, matter, but also of our pure consciousness , Krishna is a cause of all consciousness who is described in the Srimad Bhagavatam 1.1.1 http://www.thevedicspectator.com
The destruction of objective sciences and the introduction of liberalised societies work hand in hand …Without the subjectively driven scientific community , who are repeatedly presenting subjective guessing as fact based sciences and whom the libertines adore , there would be no grounds for the onwards liberalised push by the global conglomerates .They are forever inviting members of society to enjoy enjoy enjoy , because one life, one death is all there is and all that there will ever be .The out of control consumer society with businessmen controlling the administrators and administrators who silence the real intelligensia. Fortunately, dualism is returning, and a pushback is at last occurring . Sciences and theological sciences work hand in hand , objective sciences tells us the obvious, the obvious that has been there all along and which the atheistic tried to throw the cover of subjective guessing over and who presented artificial fact. . When one understands scientifically dualism, life priorities change, and a great respect is built between everything that lives , including the environment they live in http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Within the realms of Vrndavana, all of the residents are able to reach the “heart of hearts ” of Krishna . Krishna, the original personality of Godhead, has four main features to His personality, written about in detail by Srila Rupa Goswami. So extraordinary are the trancendental events in Vrndavana that even Lord Bramha becomes bewildered by them . Lord Siva , Narada Muni and Krishna’s friend in Mathura Uddhava , amongst many other great souls , desire to enter and understand the mysterious and sweet pastimes of Vraja . The land where ever new and transcendentally prestine emotions are exhibited by the residents that are seen to constantly increase the ocean of trancendental bliss both within the heart of Krishna and His devotees . These devotees are ultimately headed by the Queen of Vrndavana Srimati Radharani, who is described as the personification of the Lords pleasure potency, She is the Supreme Goddess of fortune.
The Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas reveal all under the tutelage of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
The whole of the Vedic cultural social systems are based on protection from all kinds of harm . The head protects the body by utilising the brain power without the head , what is the use of the arms or weapons of any kind . If we analyse every day life protection of one sort or another is at play.
We must identify the foe and seek to protect ourselves.
Bhagavad Gita 6.6 .
Gives us the clue ..Lord Krishna says .
“For him who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, his very mind will be the greatest enemy.”
Realising dualism, body, mind&consciousness
The Vedas indicates there is a connection between violence and lack of knowledge, a killer can never understand dualism in real terms. Dualism is not an academic position but rather a realisation of consciousness and its equality and giving equal respect and rights to life . Thus, theological cultures forbid killing as does the law . The killer kills his passage to the realised knowledge of dualism. The meat eater will find their realisations muddled and unclear , the vegetarians with other practices of non-violence will progress more easily on the path to realise dualism, otherwise known as Brahman realisation.
Having some faith in the vast range of theological and philosophically based cultures that are thousands of years old and having consideration for the logical and rational position that if Divinity exists, He must be the Supreme protectorate is intelligent.
Calling within ourselves for Divinity to inspire and give guidance is a perfectly natural thing to do , everyone turns themselves inward at times , the Vedas , as all theologies suggest, you are not alone, help of immeasurable capacity is always present and faith carries one along way http://www.thevedicspectator.com
Translation The Supreme Lord is situated in everyone’s heart, O Arjuna, and is directing the wanderings of all living entities, who are seated as on a machine, made of the material energy.
Krishna has spoken clearly here objective sciences and if we carefully examine objectively with the help of the best of the objective science community members it will be very clearly demonstrated how the machine like body assembles using codes and informational processes utalising dna and Rna molecules. Although those who are loyal to scientific materialism or Darwinian hypothesis can not understand the workings of the ethereal mind and intellect or, of course, consciousness itself , this is actually self evident truth , we can see matter is never conscious . There is ample evidence in the world of an intelligent design in nature , microbial world, or the colossal universe. Clear evidence of precision engineering and perfection in engineering design can not be denied. Consciousness explorations and psychological sciences and the subtle sciences bring further evidence of how the machine of the body is carrying consciousness . Life comes from life .
The scientific community convinces itself , and others, it is bringing education to mankind , but education means you know a topic . If you don’t know the topic , then admit it’s guessing . In the case of scientific materialism and Darwinian hypothesis, it’s subjective guessing and speculations and not scientifically led objective observations that are being presented as fact based science. That’s cheating science.
What do they refer to as education ? Basically, accepting, without any evidence, random mutations originating from the primordial soup , the common ancestor model , of microbes spilling out of chemicals and becoming Einstein. Although they can not bind chemical combinations in synthetic chemistry very easily at all . In chemistry, everything is ordered as much as the Dna coding or the atomic realms are ordered , i.e . according to the amount of protons in the atoms, results in the specific elements manifested. In chemistry, binding chemicals together is very, very difficult. So, there is no chance of randomness. It involves rather, precision chemistry . So molecules dont move towards life or are seen to mutate in a purely unguided and random process that somehow follows a particular environment they mysteriously find themselves in .This life all around us , according to the Darwinian,is only random chemistry, random biology , randon neurons firings, and random physics that holds everything together , where a chance event in the universe produces , gravitational forces and the precise mix of atoms and elements, with carbon as the predominant element , the element most needed fof life to emerge. Everything’s we see and experience in terms of living things , including plant life, is perfectly engineered and designed. Logic and rationale are part of an education system, with that in mind can we suppose one billion monkeys typing on one billion typewriters for one billion years could produce a perfectly punctuated page of a Shakespeare script, including the spaces between the words. The dna coding and the informational exchanges by mrna molecules are akin to highly sophisticated engineering technologies and are producing the protein like machines in the cells and specifically shaping them using those codes producing bodies in every species of life . Regarding common ancestry, same engineer, different engineering is the Vedic truth . As much as the robotics assemble plant in any factory will , according to information of a computer chip , programmed by an intelligent source , assemble a specific part of a machine , that is what we objectively see in world sciences. Where there is smoke, you know there is fire , or it just been extinguished .Whenever you experience information and a sequence that is functional.. You naturally assume something….that a consciousness is at work . What is the difficulty? Micro evolution, meaning exchanges of dna within species and variations according to an environment, that’s acceptable and Vedic. Macro evolution brings us back to the billion monkeys. Of course, unfortunately, at schools and universities , scientific materialism , and Darwinian hypothesis is taught as fact based science, which is unfortunate. Everyone should consider dualism, mind, matter, and consciousness as separated and entirely different energies. We experience the adult body, and the childhood body has long gone , as your current body will change drastically and quickly. In a space of seven years, a completely different body is built as all the cells change, you, the consciousness experience this , the body is not you ..
The natural vedic learning process..
If we conform to the good principles in life as taught by the good and pure over many many generations , these universal principles and easily recognisable , instinctively we come to understand this depth of knowledge of the consciousness. Irresistibly knowledge builds on the back of piety. In humble spirit, we will see the benefits of learning from others in every walk of life . Because of previous practice of consciousness cultivation, many greater persons both in karmic , philosophical knowledge, or pure devotional attitudes can help us along . This was the beauty of the original Varna Ashram systems , that peoples good fortune was recognised and shared with others .This overarching principle of Vedic life is a valuable asset for everyone to know . This good fortune originates from the Vedic intelligensia, who are pure in heart and mind and well studied in the Vedas in all its formats . http://www.thevedicspectator.com
