Pankaja_Dasa

A person who perfectly meditates on Me acquires My nature of being the supreme ruler and controller. His order, like Mine, can never be frustrated by any means. It says we acquire the same nature as Krishna who IS the Supreme Controller. A devotees is never frustrated in his endevours either, which is said at the last sentence. - You know this is why we read Bhagavad-gita 1st. Uddhava-Gita is very advanced lol!!!!!!!

Just like everything esle is speculation. The scientists didn't create anything, Radio, Televisions, they just manipulated what was already provided to them by Krishna. Just imagine the brain power of Lord Brahma? Who created this Universe. Manipulation is material objects. But people won't go for that. Like I said they don't have the brain power. [even the big so-called scientists!]

That's all I have to say. Plus nobody even has any brains to speculate properly in this Age. Scientists say This Whole Creation was created by a BIG-Bang. Even Vedas, the Mayavadis are so degraded. Everybody, thats why it says Only way for Yoga is to chant. Chant then read.

Before Sankara there was Buddisum. Before Buddisum there was many Vaishnavas. Shankara bought back us to our Vedic Roots, to him we are ever thankful for this.

My name is pankaja_dasa. Hare Krishna:)

It's the Russians:( Who will start it. Remember Cold War [brr]. Yep, Russia V USA. The Big fight. Live and exclusive on planet Earth. Loser gets .. Crayzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Dandavats Hare Krishna, God is realized in 3 aspects one after the other, as Brahman [impersonal aspect], Paramatma [Localized aspect] and Bhagavan [Personal aspect]. All of these CANNOT be understood by any material means. The verse you posted is amazing. Really a treasure of knowledge. The last part is authoratative, because it explains people on the impersonal path always speculate. I hope thats ok, what I said. Where is Uddhava-Gita on-line? Nitai-Gauranga. Radha-Krishna.

Lord Nitai in Mayapura

Srila Rupa Gosvami, after consulting various scriptures, has enumerated the transcendental qualities of the Lord as follows: (1) beautiful features of the entire body; (2) marked with all auspicious characteristics; (3) extremely pleasing; (4) effulgent; (5) strong; (6) ever youthful; (7) wonderful linguist; (8) truthful; (9) talks pleasingly; (10) fluent; (11) highly learned; (12) highly intelligent; http://nectarofdevotion.com/21/en

I mean God is all Good.

This forum for a while all the Mayavadis come out, Barney and his gang. Everybody here should read this- http://www.krsnaconsciousness.org/bhaktivinoda-vani.exe Exe file is ok to open, I created this myself.

Translation When this human body is used for Your devotional service, it acts as one's self, friend and beloved. But unfortunately, although You always show mercy to the conditioned souls and affectionately help them in every way, and although You are their true Self , people in general fail to delight in You. Instead they commit spiritual suicide by worshiping illusion. Alas, because they persistently hope for success in their devotion to the unreal, they continue to wander about this greatly fearful world, assuming various degraded bodies. http://vedabase.net/sb/10/87/22/ What does the bold part mean? Sounds a bit Advaita [oneness] to me, or Mayavadi. Is this correct translation. /images/graemlins/confused.gif

Nah doesn't mean don't think, you already thought. It's kind of a lila. Thinking means negation, you should always think. !

Things go on. I think your wanting to know who 'the bad guys are' so you can aliviate your mind. And go with that Camp. Which is ok I guess. But then that leads to thinking bad of 'the other camp'. Which actually defeats the purpose of your inquery! Think of it as some Lila in this World, then you can't go wrong.
