This is Krishna. Now Take Him!
→ Servant of the Servant

Just imagine a person who manifests everything that exists out of His transcendental body, Who is so powerful that not even a blade of grass can move without His sanction, who is so kind that no matter how much you neglect Him, He still has unlimited love for you, Who is so attractive that anyone who comes into His contact cannot help but fall madly in love with Him, Who is so sweet that anything else besides Him is by comparison unbearably bitter, Who is so funny that He can make everyone laugh uproariously, Who is so serious that He can make everyone very sober even the most frivolous buffoons, Who plays His flute so artistically with such unlimited depth of beautiful emotions that He can make everyone cry pools of tears in ecstasy, Who is so accessible that even though He is the supreme superstar you can have Him exclusively as your personal companion, and Who has so many unlimited wondrous qualities that I could go on writing this sentence infinitely for all of eternity. (Do I need to stop?) This is Krishna. Now take Him!

Is Krishna in the Vedas? Should Rāma-bhaktas Become Krishna Bhaktas?
→ The Enquirer
Q: Is there śāstric evidence for the understanding that Krishna is the original Bhagavān, the source of Viṣṇu, aside from the commonly quoted Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 1.3.28 and Brahmā Saṁhitā 5.1?
I think the first thing to remember here is that Krishna is a very rare avatāra. He is 1,000 times more rare than any other Viṣṇu Avatāra (Because they appear once per kalpa, but Krishna appears only once in an entire day of Brahmā — 1,000 kalpa). And every time Krishna appears, he is immediately followed by Śrī Krishna Caitanya and his associates, especially Śrīla Rūpa Goswāmī and Śrīla Jīva Goswāmī, etc.
So for 95% of the duration of the cosmos, Krishna is rather irrelevant. He is not known except by those very rare mystics whose knowledge extends beyond the beginning of the current cosmos. Therefore in the vast majority of śāstra Krishna is not directly discussed. Simply put, he is irrelevant to most of the material world, and even most of the spiritual progress going on within the material world, for the vast majority of the time.
But when, just after the 500th revolution of kalpa, at the very end of the dvāpara-yuga, Krishna appears… all of the sudden he becomes exceedingly relevant in this world, although for a short time on a cosmic scale. Krishna is like a flash of lightning or a supernova, very rare, and when it happens it is over very quickly, but while it happens… oh boy is it bright and exciting!
After Krishna appears Vyāsa records his līlā in Bhāgavata Purāṇa. Then there is a period of slight pause, and then Mahaprabhu Arrives with his associates to completely explain Krishna and open a huge doorway for almost anyone and everyone to access the beauty of the Bhāgavata Purāṇa and its object.
So, what I am saying is that most of the time Krishna is irrelevant to the world, and therefore most of the scripture doesn’t deal directly with Krishna. But when Krishna does come, once in 1,000 kalpa he is followed immediately by associates who generate śāstra relevant to his revelation.
So, the words of Mahaprabhu, the words of Kaviraja Goswāmī, the words of Śrī Rūpa, Sanatana, Raghunātha and Jīva Goswāmī… these are equal to and superior to the words of the Sāptaṛṣi who composed the ancient vedas, and the words of the other ṛṣī who composed Upanishads and so on. We do not agree to the idea that simply because something is not extremely old, its not authentic. The relatively modern texts of Śrī Rūpa and Śrī Jīva, for example, are superior to the Purāṇas, Upanishads, and Vedas – because they were written during the “supernova” of Krishna’s revelation.
In the very old Vedas, there is still indication of Krishna but it is indirect. In other words, he is not mentioned much by name, but is regularly pointed to as an ideal.
Two classic, important, examples are
(1) the Vedanta’s analysis of the Upanishads, stating ānanda-mayābhyāsāt — “The Upanishads repeatedly declare that the ultimate life is composed of bliss itself.”
(2) Taittiriya Upanishad, stating raso vai saḥ — “The supreme is certainly rasa himself.”
So, the Upanishads (which bring out the philosophical import of the four Veda) repeatedly point to bliss / rasa as the true essence of life – and that is really what the Krishna conception is. Krishna is the supreme life, and thus the supreme rasa, the supreme bliss. So our ācāryas, like Madhvācārya, confidently say, “All the Vedas glorify Krishna.” And even Krishna says, in Gītā, vedaiś ca sarvair ahaṁ eva vedyo — “The real thing to be known in all the Vedas is me.”
Madhvācārya says (in commenting on Gītā 2.24), that the older Vedic scriptures can be most clearly understood for what they really are pointing towards only if we study them in light of the newer scriptures (especially the Gītā. In Bhagavad Gītā, several statements support that Krishna is Bhagavān and even svayam Bhagavān.)
In this way, we are quite content with the 3rd chapter of canto 1 of Śrīmad Bhāgavata Purāṇa (which elaborately and explicitly makes the point that Krishna is svayam Bhagavān, and the origin of all avatar), and with the Brahmā Samhita discovered by Śrī Krishna Caitanya, and with the statements of Mahaprabhu and the Six Goswāmīs.
Here are a few more instances of indirect descriptions of Krishna in the Upaniṣads:
The essential declaration that the supreme is an entity possessing personality, and desire to expand (the root nature of Krishna) is made all across the Upaniṣad. For example: Chāndogya Upaniṣad (6.2.1):
sadeva saumyedam agra āsīd ekam evādvitīyam
tad aikṣata bahu syām prajāyeya
“In the beginning the One was certainly undivided, and desired to manifest as many.”
Aitareya Upaniṣad (1.1-2):
ātmā vā idam eka evāgra āsīn nānyat kiñcana miṣat
sa īkṣata lokān nu sṛjā
“In the beginning there was certainly only one entity, and nothing else. He desired to manifest all things.”
The Gītā declares in many places that Krishna is Bhagavān, who is defined as the origin of Brahman. For example (Bhagavad Gītā 14.27): brahmaṇo hi pratiṣṭhāhaṁ – “I am certainly the very foundation of reality (Brahman).”
A later Upaniṣad, Gopāl Tāpanī Upaniṣad (Pūrva 50), mentions Krishna by name:
tasmāt kṛṣṇa eva paro devaḥ
“Therefore the supreme divinity is certainly all-attractive (Krishna).”
Q: Should we preach the Krishna conception to those who have other understandings of Bhagavān.
Our natural function, being enamored with Krishna, is that we will speak about Krishna. Much like school boys talk about the various girls in bands like AKB48, and the school girls talk about the various boys in bands like One Direction, or whatever. It is just natural that we will gush about Krishna.
We do not “preach” per se, it is just natural that when we open our mouths, what is in our hearts comes out.
You cannot “make” someone a devotee of Krishna, or a devotee at all. You can only hope to inspire them to make themselves a devotee. Love cannot be created, it comes only from freewill, so we cannot create bhakti in someone else. We can only inspire them to create it within themselves.
If someone is inspired to be a devotee of Narasiṁha, Varāha, Rāma, Viṣṇu, etc. then your expression of love for Krishna will only inspire their affection for Narasiṁha, Varāha, etc. Similarly, if one is inspired to be a devotee of Krishna, then expressions of devotion for Rāma and so on, will only inspire their inspiration towards Krishna.
Śrīla Rūpa and Sanātana Goswāmīs were brothers. They had a third brother, and his son was Jīva Goswāmī. This third brother was a devotee of Rāma. Śrīla Rūpa and Sanātana could not interest him in becoming a devotee of Krishna.
Sometimes it will happen, because sometimes the soul will be inspired. But usually it won’t happen because the soul is already fixed in its inspiration.
There is no need to make the effort, in my opinion.

The vibhavas, prabhavas and anubhavas of Krishna’s para shakti
→ The Spiritual Scientist
Krsna has one personal energy called svarupa sakti or para sakti. This para sakti has three vibhavas, three prabhavas and three anubhavas by Krsna's will. The three vibhavas are the cit sakti, jiva sakti and maya sakti. The three prabhavas are the iccha sakti, kriya sakti and jnana sakti. The three anubhavas are sandhini, hladini and samvit. By the influence of the iccha sakti (Supreme Will), the cit sakti manifests Goloka, Vaikuntha and other places of the Lord's pastimes, Krsna's names, the Lord's various two handed or four handed or six handed forms, the pastimes with his associates in Goloka, Vrndavana, and Vaikuntha, and spiritual qualities such as mercy, forgiveness, and generosity. By the influence of the jnana sakti, the cit sakti produces various perceptions: aisvarya, madhurya, and beauty of the spiritual world. Krsna alone possesses the iccha sakti. The controller of the jnana sakti is Vasudeva and the controller of the kriya sakti is Baladeva, or Sankarsana. By the influence of the iccha sakti, jnana sakti and kriya sakti upon the jiva sakti, the forms of eternal associates, devatas, men, demons and raksasas appear. By the influence of Krsna's kriya sakti, the Lord's activities become manifest. Within the cit sakti, the sandhini, samvit and hladini saktis combine to produce the distinctive ecstasies of prema.

Non-vegetarians healthier than vegetarians?
→ The Spiritual Scientist
- Chaitanya Charan das and Sukadeva das, PhD
"Vegetarians are unhealthier than non-vegetarians." So claimed a recent study:
http://atlanta.cbslocal.com/2014/04/01/study-vegetarians-less-healthy-lower- quality-of-life-than-meat-eaters/
The article stated: “Vegetarians were twice as likely to have allergies, a 50 percent increase in heart attacks and a 50 percent increase in incidences of cancer. The cross-sectional study from Austrian Health Interview Survey data and published in PLos One examined participants dietary habits, demographic characteristics and general lifestyle differences.”
At the bottom of the ladder of credibility
What this article didn’t care to mention was the significance of the term “cross-sectional study.” Most readers would probably pass over the technical sounding term, assuming it to be something that indicates credibility and reliability. Their assumption couldn’t be further from the truth. Researchers, especially in the medical and health fields, have a variety of studies of different levels of reliability; and in that hierarchy, cross-sectional studies fall somewhere near the bottom.
A quick analysis of some of the problems of the studies lower in the hierarchy is as follows:
- Cross-sectional studies are weak because they provide no direct evidence of the sequence of events.
- True prevalence surveys—cross-sectional studies of a defined population—guard against selection bias but are subject to measurement and confounding biases.
- Case-control studies are vulnerable to selection bias and can be susceptible to confounding and measurement bias.
- Well-conducted cohort studies are better because they can be performed in a way that minimizes known confounding, selection, and measurement biases.
- Randomized trials are better still because the research design protects against possible biases and provides stronger evidence for a cause-and-effect relationship.
- Systematic reviews are the highest level of evidence.
Fletcher et al - http://www.amazon.com/Clinical-Epidemiology-Essentials-Robert-Fletcher/dp/B00D9TDLT6
Readers interested in learning more about this hierarchy of evidences can refer here for an introductory analysis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_of_evidence
or here for a more technical analysis
http://circ.ahajournals.org/content/118/16/1675.full
For those who are not into the technical stuff, the simple point is that this study, being none-too-reliable, needs to be taken with due skepticism.
More reliable studies confirm the health benefits of vegetarianism
And an even greater reason for skepticism is that this study is contradicted by many studies of a far higher level of reliability, as can be seen by a quick search of the relevant medical literature. Here are a
A systematic review published in the Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism found that vegetarians have a significantly lower ischemic heart disease mortality (29%) and overall cancer incidence (18%) than nonvegetarians.
A systematic review published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association reported that vegetarians have lower risk of death from ischemic heart disease, lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, and lower rates of hypertension and type 2 diabetes, lower body mass index and lower overall cancer rates than nonvegetarians. Additionally, contradicting the popular myth that vegetarian diets are nutritionally inadequate, the study reported that appropriately planned vegetarian diets are healthful and nutritionally adequate for individuals during all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence, and for athletes.
A randomized control trial published in the Journal of the American Dietic Association found that a very-low-fat vegan diet increases intake of protective nutrients that combat several chronic diseases and minimizes intake of dietary factors implicated in several chronic diseases.
A randomized control trial published by Cancer Research confirmed that red meat enhances the colonic formation of the DNA adduct O6-carboxymethyl guanine, thereby reiterating the well-known association of red meat with colorectal cancer.
Readers who prefer a non-technical analysis can the various benefits of vegetarianism – health being just one of them – summarized in an acronym: HELP: Health, Environment, Livestock, Poor.
http://www.thespiritualscientist.com/2012/01/are-there-any-logical-reasons-to-choose-vegetarianism/
The overall verdict of scientific research confirms the time-tested wisdom of the Vedic spiritual tradition: we are meant primarily to be vegetarians.

Outline
Every book has a part of its concept development a surface tension and a substance tension.
The tension in the Puranas is more difficult to understand than that in the Itihasas.
The Bhagavatam progresses towards establishing the glory of pure devotion of the gopis in Vrindavan through various tensions
Seekers' material postion
1. Varna -
2. Race - Vritrasura, Prahlad and Bali vs Indra
3. Gender - Yajnik brahmanas vs their wives
4. Ashrama - Amabarisha vs Durvasa
5. Worldly position - Jada Bharata vs Rahugana
Seekers' conceptions of Absolute Truth
6. Brahman vs Bhagavan - Sukadeva G and Kumaras
7. Vishnu vs Krishna - Maha-vishnu steals brahmana's sons to get darshan of Krishna
8. Aishvarya Krishna vs Madhurya Krishna - Uddhava in Vrindavan
9. Samyoga vs Vipralambha - Gopis (Rasa Panchadhyaya)

Filled with amorous desires, Sri Sri Radha and Krsna gracefully enter the palace of vines. Their glistening eyes, words, limbs, and motions are all filled with nectar, and Their eyes move with amorous playfulness. Seeing all this, Radha’s maidservants begin to discreetly go outside, but the smiling divine couple brings them back in. They are plunged in shyness and bliss at the same moment. These teenage maidservants of Srimati Radharani have complexions as splendid as gold. They are ravishingly beautiful, with beautiful slender waists and very large breasts and hips, and each wears in her nose a pearl studded with jewels and gold. Their braided hair, their garments, and their ornaments, are all very beautiful. Please meditate on Srimati Radharani’s maidservants in this way.

Kolkata Devotees Purchase Srila Prabhupada’s Birthplace
→ ISKCON Malaysia
“One hundred yards away from his maternal grandfather’s house is a small cottage under a jackfruit tree,” explains Radha Jivan Das, a Florida-based businessman and philanthropist. “In India in those days, when a woman gave birth, she would go back to her father’s house. So Prabhupada’s mother, Srimati Rajani De, went to stay with her joint family in Tollygunge—her parents and brothers all lived there. She gave birth to Srila Prabhupada in this small cottage, which was exclusively for ladies to give birth—a kind of birthing center, so to speak.”
Recently the cottage became available for sale. Kolkata devotees, including vice president Radha Raman Das, negotiated with the elderly lady who had owned it, and purchased it for just $25,000. The funds were raised by Radhanath Swami and Radha Jivan Das, who each paid half of the cost.
Besides being Srila Prabhupada’s birthplace, there are several interesting facts about the property.
The jackfruit tree which stands over the cottage and still bears fruit, was present when Srila Prabhupada was born 117 years ago. Radha Jivan estimates it’s at least 130 or 140 years old. The property is also special because Srila Prabhupada continued to visit it throughout his childhood. Or rather, he would visit the house of his mother’s family 100 yards from it. Whenever Srimati Rajane De would go to visit her family, Prabhupada would go with her, taking the thirty-kilometer commute from his father Gour Mohan De’s house on Mahatma Gandhi Road. During his visits to Tollygunge, Srila Prabhupada—then little Abhay Charan De—would go with his maternal uncles to visit a Madan Mohan temple just across the street from their house. One of the most interesting and little-known facts, however, is that it was actually Srila Prabhupada’s express wish that his birthplace be purchased by ISKCON.
“Srila Prabhupada’s grand nephew and disciple, Sankarshan Das, is currently managing a preaching center in Godrumadvipa, near Mayapur,” says Radha Jivan.
“When I told him what we were purchasing Prabhupada’s birthplace, he started to cry.” He said, ‘On May 5th, 1977, five months before he passed away, Srila Prabhupada personally handwrote me a Bengali letter. He said ‘Sankarshana Prabhu, this place where I was born under the tree must be acquired.’”
“Prabhupada knew who he was,” Radha Jivan says. “He knew he was the acharya of the age. He knew his birthplace could not just go to waste.”
So it is no surprise that ISKCON devotees are very excited, 36 years later, to finally own this piece of history.
“Several brahmachari disciples of Radhanath Swami are already living there,” says Radha Jivan. “They have installed a murti form of Srila Prabhupada in the cottage where he was born. They are doing kirtan, and distributing kichari prasadam to the hungry in the area. We are currently constructing some bathroom facilities and cleaning the cottage up. We invite any devotees visiting Kolkata to come and see Srila Prabhupada’s birthplace.”
In the next year, devotees hope to purchase two acres of land surrounding the cottage. They will then begin building a beautiful monument for Srila Prabhupada that will attract visitors from all over to see the birthplace of the saint who gave the world Krishna consciousness. The monument will include a museum depicting Prabhupada’s early childhood pastimes.
In the future, the memorial could expand into a full-fledged ISKCON center.
“It may include a nice temple and a school in Srila Prabhupada’s name, where spiritual and material education can be given to the local people,” Radha Jivan says.
ISKCON guru Radha Govinda Swami, upon hearing the news, summed up the importance of this acquisition by ISKCON.
It Is A Personal Obligation

Food for thought
→ KKSBlog
(Kadamba Kanana Swami, 27 October 2010, Vrindavan, India, Lecture)
Question: You mentioned Dhruva Maharaj stopped eating, drinking and breathing – is it possible for us to take vows and if it is needed, how much is needed?
Yes, there are vows in devotional service that one can take and such vows are being observed by acharyas. On ekadasi, they were following quite strictly. For example, it is said that Srinivas Acharya would sit with a group of devotees on ekadasi and they would chant non-stop all day and all night, and they would tie their sikas with strings to the ceilings!
So, one can take such vows but the greatest vow is the vow to distribute mercy. So greater than fasting is to somehow or other distribute the mercy everywhere – that is our focus! So, if fasting reinforces our ability to give out the mercy then it is alright but if the fasting diminishes that ability then, “Eat and eat and eat!”
But if eating begins to diminish our ability to distribute the mercy then, “Fast and fast and fast!”

An Impetus to Eternal Life, June 3, ISKCON, East Hartford, Connecticut
Giriraj Swami
Giriraj Swami read and spoke from Srimad-Bhagavatam 2.3.17.
“Generally we think, ‘Old age—how terrible; disease—how terrible.’ But if those serve as an impetus to our Krishna consciousness and thus help us realize our eternal, blissful life with Krishna, they are favorable. So we should learn to take every situation as Krishna’s mercy—as an opportunity to remember Krishna more. Actually, everything we experience in this world is meant to help us think of Krishna more. Sometimes in difficulty a person’s Krishna consciousness is accelerated. When things are going well we may think we don’t need God, but then when things go wrong we realize that we do need Him.”
