Dear Leyh,
If your friend, Thomas Merton, and
the rest does not know where they
are headed for, might as well sing
you this song.
Life is not at all that bad my friend,
HMMMM.
If you believe in yourself if you be-
lieve there`s someone who walks thru
life with you.
You`ll never be alone.
Just learn to reach out and open your
heart.
Lift up your hands to God(Krishna) and
He will show you THE WAY(Krishnaloka).
And He said cast your burdens upon Me,
those who are heavily-laden.
Come to me all of you who are tired,
of carrying heavy loads.
For the yoke I will give you is easy,
and my burden is LIGHT(Illumination).
Come to Me and I`ll give you rest.
Come to me and I`ll give you (the)rest.

I think it`s alright to say that
Srila Prabhupad was insincere in
one way or another during his
life(married or sanyasa). Even I
in one way or another have chea-
ted or lied. If you say no one
has ever lied or cheated before
in one`s life then that person
being referred to does not exist.
Even Lord Krishna cheats or lies
but who can question if He does
these things?

We can`t beat a virus, like
small pox or the rest of it.
Take for example, the influ-
zae virus, the herpes virus,
the chicken pox virus, the
rabies virus, the dengue fe-
ver virus that causes hem-
morrages in the intestinal
mucosa which is as deadly as
the anthrax bacteria. Then
we have a virus that causes
the dreaded Hepatitis B, or
the HIV virus, the polio vi-
rus, the cytomegalo virus,
etchetera.
What I`m trying to say is
that these viruses are so s-
mall one can`t see them by
the naked eye. Neither can
you identify them without
using an electron microscope
or serologic tests to find
out if these virus exists in
side the blood system of an
infected patient.
Since SMALL POX virus has
been considered to have been
completely eradicated thru
out the world, if it appears
in some country say, USA, then
I believe the people should be
vaccinated with an antenuated
strain of the said virus. That
way, the one being vaccinated
will be immune to the virus
once it attacks the people sus-
ceptible to it.
SMAll POX Vaccination, anyone?

Dear John,
Thank you for the posts. Thank you
so much for being here with me. I
am sorry for calling you names be-
cause of Jaya Sri Radhey. Hope you
can forgive me. As for Jaya, I hope
she can bury the past, and look to
towards the future. We are all in
these together because we have, in
my own opinion, built this forum
to what it is now. There`s always
these contradictions. But it`s Sri
Krishna`s way to stimulate and
drive us more to accomplish what
has never been done before. Will
you forgive me, my friend?
Sincerely yours,
Melvin

People who oppose Krishna is
a Demon. So I`m not surprised
to know that there`s one or
two here. Who they are? Well,
your guess is as good as mine.
-
Why is everyone afraid of
Anthrax? It`s curable!
Please trust me on this
because I`m your DOCTOR!
Just wait till you hear
from me about SMALL POX.
Small Pox, anyone?

Well, I guess there`s no
debate here regarding the
greatest commandment.
Wheww! At last, we have
breeched the 10,000 mark!
CONGRATULATIONS to you
my dear John Das, SHVU,
Jaya Sri Radhey, and those
who have contributed their
piece of mind on this fo-
rum.

Dear (Urs Truly) Jijaji,
I don`t take SOMA RASA
because it can give you
an illusion of what you
are not. I don`t take
amphetamines or dope
that give you a sense
of being the Lord. But
you are not, nor you, in
anyway, with your(+)
Romberg`s test for al-
coholism, can give you
courage when you and
your Special Forces get
to confront the Taliban
warriors in Afghanistan.
This war won`t be like
the Desert Storm which
in one swoop defeated
Sadam`s Army. This war
is the Ultimate one
where you have to use ur
brains, not brawn to de-
feat the enemy. Do you
have the former trait?
Well, I doubt it.
Respectfully yours,
Melvin
-
Jijaji,
Are you taking SOMA RASA?
It seems your graphics
before signing-off speaks
of it. Or maybe you have
this disease called POST-
URAL VERTIGO, or motion
sickness. O.K. Take a deep
breath so you can inhale
more oxygen instead of car-
bon dioxide.
Youre truly,
Melvin

Shvu is one of the pioneers of
this discussion forum. And I
really like his reactions. In
fact, he and Jaya Sri Radhey,
also a pioneer, were regulary
discussing about mukti and
bhakti-yoga. Never understimate
Prabhu Shvu. His humility is
great, but if you question him
his mind, he can debate you on
any topic to smitheereens!

The Commandment declares,
" Thou shall LOVE KRISHNA
with YOUR HEART and WITH
you SOUL."
That is the greatest com-
mandment! The rest as
written by Moses, et al.,
are INSIGNIFICANT.

Dear Valaya,
You must be a near relative of mine
for my last name is MABALAY. He, he.
I have a chanting (japa) beads with
me and that is the HOLY ROSARY given
to me by the Knights of Columbus of
which I`m a 2nd degree member. Well,
try to imagine, Me, praying Our
Father and Hail Mary and Glory Be,
while at the same time chanting the
Hare Krishna mantra on IT. Can you
do that?
Yours truly,
Melvin

The ANTHRAX scare gripping the major
cities in the US and the world is I
believe a production of people who
practice the art of tantrism.
Imagine a powdery substance inside
your mail can transform itself into
a deadly Bacillus anthracis spore
within a split second as you open it.
How they do it boggles the mind.
Tantrism therefore is a science that
deals with spells(dharanis) that is
to have appeared in the 4th century
that seemed to have been the work of
Panchakarma in part and the rest fr.
Sakyamitra(c.850), a tantrist. In
other words, this BLACK science was
said to have flourished chiefly a-
long the northern borders of India,
while Buddhism curiously vanished
from here up to the 9th cent. A.D.,
lingering in Bengal and Bihar until
the Moslem conquest of India(1202).
Tantrism, in my research, is an art
practiced by the followers of Lord
Shiva.
Anthrax Tantra, anyone?

Dear Valaya,
I would suggest you read again
Srimad Bhagavad-gita. The whole
gist of this great BOOK is that
Lord Krishna has told Arjuna to
just surrender unto HIM and all
the problems Arjuna`s facing
will be taken care of during the
Battle of Kuruksetra!
Isn`t that what Krishna has told
His disciples to do?
Maybe you are not Lord Hari`s de-
votee. So, I understand your con-
fusion regarding this issue.
Yours truly,
Melvin

"There`ll be only one religion
after the WAR, and that is
KRISHNA CONSCIOUNESS, as pre-
dicted by the great Mahajana.
And there will only be one
Law Book for conditioned souls
like, Jijaji, et al, and that
is Srimad Bhagavatam," accord-
ing to His Divine Grace. OM TAT
SAT.

There`s only one commandment I
follow: That is one should sur-
render unto Sri Krishna.
The rest are all NON-SENSE!

Politicians like US Pres. Bush
and UK Prime Minister Blair
will never surrender to Krishna.
And that goes, too, for Osama
Bin Laden. So as long as these
leaders won`t surrender to our
Lord Hari, these bombings and
terroristic attacks will conti-
nue. That is if you believe
that Lord Vasudeva is the cause
of all causes, the reason why
these haribol events happen. O.K?
-
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu went on to teach
that for each and every moment he is
engaged in some karmic activity, the
conditioned soul forgets his real id-
entity. Sometimes, when he`s tired, he
hankers for mukti, but at other times
he thinks that by working hard to gra-
tify his senses, he`s happy. In either
case, he is covered by illusion. Thus,
for the illumination of such a bewil-
dered soul, like US President George
W. Bush, the Supreme Lord Bathala Sri
Govinda Krishna has presented the Ve-
danta sutras, the Puranas and the Sri
Bhagavatam. These are all intended to
guide all the leaders of this world,
especially US Pres.G.W.Bush and Bri-
tish Prime Minister, Mr. Tony Blair,
in going home, back to Godhead.
Lord Chaitanya has given further ins-
tructions by explaining that when con-
ditioned souls such as those mentioned
above are accepted by the mercy of the
spiritual master and is guided by the
Supersoul and the various Vedic scrip-
tures, they become illuminated and can
make progress in spiritual realization.
It is because Bathala Sri Hari Krishna
is always merciful upon His devotees
that He has presented all these Vedic
literatures by which they can unders-
tand their relationship with Him. In
this way, one is gifted with the ulti-
mate goal of life, to be Krishna cons-
cious eternally.

Why are you bombing each other,
Guys? Har har de har. Osama
Bin Laden in his foxhole deep
within Mt Kabul is laughing to
death at your antics, err, an-
tiques!

Generally. there are two kinds of
philosophers. The goal of one is
Nirvana while the goal of the other
is the effulgence of Brahman. Such
philosophers however can`t imagine
beyond Nirvana because they don`t
have any concept or idea of Krishna
loka and the activities done there
in behalf of Govinda Krishna.
Citing evidences from Bhagavad-gita
(8.54), " One who is transcendental
at once realizes the Supreme Brahman.
He never laments nor desires to have
anything; he`s equally disposed to
every living entity. In that state,
he attains pure-devotional service
unto Me." Lord Chaitanya however had
to reject this idea because he thinks
that by renouncing the material(non-
radioactive) results in realizing the
self, one can`t perceive the spirit-
ual(radioactive) and its reactions,
although there`s no contamination as
one attains this stage called " Illu-
mination". This state according to
Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is not per-
fect because there`s no positive en-
gagement that requires spirituality
(radioactivity). Since it`s still sit-
uated in the mental stage, it is, in
other words, considered to be material
(non-radioactive). Thus one won`t be
able to liberate himself unless he`s
completely engaged in spiritual(radio-
active) activities.
That`s why philosophers who meditate
on the mental( non-radioactive) plane
are frustrated in their attempts in
creating a vacuum within the mind that
led to failure in illuminating the
self known as self-realization.
The liberation or illumination achieved
by Lord Buddha is not complete and thus
was rejected by Lord Chaitanya. To make
it perfect, Ramananda Raya therefore
cited this information from Srimad Bha-
gavatam(10.14.3), wherein Lord Brahma
tells Govinda Krishna: " My dear Lord,
one should give up monistic speculation
and the cultivation of knowledge altoge-
ther. He should begin his spiritual(ra-
dioactive) life in devotional service by
receiving data of the Lord`s pastimes
from a self-illumined follower of His
Lordship. If one cultivates his spirit-
ual(radioactive)life by following these
principles as well as keeping oneself
on the honest path of life, then even
if Your Lordship is never conquered, You
are conquered by such processes."
In this Kali-yuga age, there`s no possi-
bility of acquiring spiritual knowledge
that is ATOMIC.The best remedy, according
to Lord Chaitanya, is let them remain on
whatever condition they are in and let
them engage in hearing the pastimes of
the Supreme Lord Govinda Krishna which
are well-explained by souls who have
realized the Absolute Truth( ATOMIC).
Thus in the end, one can actually rege-
nerate the Supreme Personality of God,
Govinda Krishna, within himself in just
a matter of time.

Just do it now,

I`m not a muslim, but all I know
is that before the Spaniards came
to our shores on March 1521, the
island Sugbu(Cebu, Philippines)
were I was born was ruled by Ra-
jah Humabon whom historians be-
lieved to be a pagan because he
and his people worshipped devatas
and anitos, who believed in God,
Bathala. According to Manolo Vano,
a Cebuano historian, Bathala ac-
tually is made of two words. Bata
which meant a Child and Ala-God.
In other words, before the Spa-
niards came with their crucifixes
and swords, we were already wor-
shipping God named Bathala,
the ChildGod whom we know today
as the Senyor Santo Ninyo- Cebu`s
Patron Saint enshrined at the Ba-
silica del Sto. Nino de Cebu.
I absolutely believe that the Holy
Child is no other than Sri Govinda
Krishna Himself in His saccidanand
arcavigraha form.
That`s how I came to know Allah in
His form as the Holy Child(Govinda
Krishna).

Only God can make a tree,
if it so, then God allows
any machine to crash into
buildings. Who can ques-
tion God`s actions? Isn`t
it God, Vasudeva, is the
cause of all causes? Why
can`t you not understand
this simple fact?

Hey, Guys, this teleportation issue
isn`t new. In fact, I have discussed
this breakthrough to those who have
read my article about this science.
If you like I can demonstrate to you
just like what I did to my friend,
Tarun. After I teleprompted him to
Krishnaloka, his life had never been
the same again.
It`s like this: " Oh Lord Keshava,
please teleprompt my friends on this
site now. You are like a desire tree
who can grant anyone`s wish."
Teleprompt...3..2..1..0..zzzpt.....

The presiding deity of the moon
is Chandra. Here the denizens
love to drink the celestial in-
toxicant known as SOMA. Thus,
the inhabitants there always en-
gage themselves in SOMA rasa.
When Lord Krishna departed for
Krishnaloka 5,000 yrs. ago, it was
said that He introduced this
pastime, SOMA rasa, in order that
His devotees would be able to for-
get Him so that they won`t suffer
so much from thinking of the Lord
because of separation.
