The qualities and behavior

The qualities and behavior, by Haripada dasa
We all understand and accept that a person is known for his qualities and for his behavior, the entire spiritual culture of India was destroyed by the priests who invented that one can be a priest if he was born in a family of priests, that it is a great speculation because in the Sacred Scriptures it says the opposite of this, there it is said that a person is known by his qualities and by his behavior, if a person born in a family of a priest has the qualities of a dogs and their behavior is from a dog eater, he is a dog eater not a priest, and if a person is born into a dog-eater family and practices the rules and regulations of the Krishna consciousness process and becomes a pure devotee of God or Krishna, he has to be accepted as a pure devotee of God or Krishna, Srila Prabhupada was criticized a lot in India by the priestly class because he made many devotees of God or Krishna in the countries Europeans, in America and around the world, when Srila Prabhupada preached Krishna consciousness in India, 30,000 people and up to 50,000 people were listening to him, the Hindus were surprised and said this is our spiritual culture and we are imitating the way live from the West and we have rejected our spiritual culture, and now Srila Prabhupada is making devotees of God or Krishna all over the world, without discriminating against anyone.
Srila Prabhupada says in Srimad Bhagavatam, 4, 28, 48, that the authorized representative of God or Krishna, establishes the principles of religion, but when he leaves, disorder reigns again and bandits and non-devotees take advantage to introduce unauthorized principles, pretending to be svāmīs, yogīs, philanthropists, social workers, etc. This is like a prophecy of Srila Prabhupada, at the end of his life he was very sick and he said that you are poisoning me, Srila Prabhupada ordered his disciples to initiate in his name, then when he discarded his disciples led by his personal interests they invented that Srila Prabhupada left them as gurus, and they also made the great desecration of changing their books, Srila Prabhupada made a movement full of spiritual nectar, but then his disciples converted their movement based on horror and fear, so people like I and others, in order not to be complicit in all the offenses and injustices that they are doing to Srila Prabhupada, we had to get out of their movement.

Hare Krishna

Hare Krishna, glories to Srila Prabhupada, I am writing to ask you how you realized that Srila Prabhupada ordered his disciples to initiate in his name and that they did not obey that order and therefore they deviated, personally it helped me a lot to understand this point the book of the ritviks entitled the final order, what I liked about this book is that everything was supported with quotes from Srila Prabhupada, on the other hand, I tried to establish a personal relationship with Krishna Kantha the leader of the ritviks, and I wrote several times and he never answered me, I am very sad to see that on the one hand there are many people who understand and accept that Srila Prabhupada is the Jagat-guru the guru of all, and on the other hand I see that these people do not have sympathy for others who also have their own spiritual ideals, what do you think is the cause of this lack of sympathy and that we are very disunited, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Prabhupada always said that in ali-yuga the combined efforts will give very good results, in other words, the union is strength, for me the answer of this is in the Bhagavatam, there it is said that the devotee kanistha or neophyte does not know how to relate to the devotees or to the people in general, the devotee kanistha or neophyte is not pure, still envies, we should all make an effort to establish personal and devotional relationships, and encourage each other to obey the instructions given in the books of Srila Prabhupada and lead a spiritual life pure, the result of doing this will be that Srila Prabhupada will be very happy with us, awaiting your reply, in the service of Srila Prabhupada, Haripada dasa.

Good people and bad people

Good people and bad people, by Haripada dasa
Almost all films are based on the struggle between good people and bad, those who are good people identify with good and bad identify with bad. Now I am going to describe the qualities of good and bad people, so they will not deceive you.
Good people always live happily in God or Krishna consciousness and are free (The Truth will set you free) and they are kind, tolerant, friendly to everyone, they always respect everyone and never want to be respected, they are true, they are pure heart, conquer hunger, thirst, lamentation, envy and old age, do not deceive themselves or others, are happy when they see others happy in God or Krishna consciousness and suffer when they see others suffer and have as their best friends God or Krishna and His representatives. At no time do they forget God or Krishna and His devotees, in all moments of life they feel the protection of God or Krishna and His devotees. They live free from fear because their future is very bright and they know that they will go back home to God or Krishna. God or Krishna seizes them to turn bad people into good people. They use their selfishness to go back home to God or Krishna. They do not envy anyone because they live full of peace and satisfaction. They know God or Krishna and they love Him and as there is only God or Krishna and His energies naturally love everyone and everything.
Bad people live always full of fears, doubts, envy, fanaticism, prejudice and are intolerant, dirty of heart, only seek to be respected and they do not respect anyone, they are very envious and do not believe in God or Krishna, themselves They think they are God or Krishna. They are very adept at exploiting and controlling others. His greatest suffering is to see good people happy and free in the consciousness of God or Krishna. If a person is associated with good people ends up being a good person and if you associate with bad people ends up being a bad person, tell me who you are with and I will tell you who you are, for bad people the devotional service to God or Krishna and His Devotees are very difficult, because their lives are selfish, irregular and lack spiritual goals.
Today eighty percent of people are bad, so there is no peace or prosperity, when eighty percent of the people are good, then there will be peace and prosperity.
Thoughts to meditate:
"You will not go to bed without knowing one more thing, life is a continuous learning and it can also be a continuous degradation."
Who is a pure devotee of God or Krishna? A pure devotee of God or Krishna is one who is beyond the influence of gold, of women and of the tigress of fame ... Such a person is unattached and pure ... Such person can defeat the ignorance of the whole world.

Srila Prabhupada's men are people who have decided to use their lives to please Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada's men are naturally meek and humble, but when they see that there are people who offend Srila Prabhupada they are like lightning. In the same way that drug addicts can not go without their drugs, Srila Prabhupada's men can not live without reading Srila Prabhupada's books every day.

Very strange, envious and very dangerous

Very strange, envious and very dangerous, by Haripada dasa
I share that I joined the International Association for Krishna consciousness, (in short Iskcon), in 1984, my service was to distribute the books of the Founder Srila Prabhupada, I traveled through Spain, 16 Latin countries and the USA, the donations I received were going to the food program for the life of Vrindavana, in india, God or Krishna distributed through me more than a quarter of a million of Srila Prabhupada's books, when I saw that the Iskcon authorities led by their personal interests did not obey the Srila Prabhupada's order to initiate in the name of Srila Prabhupada and that they changed the books of Srila Prabhupada, so as not to be an accomplice in all the injustices and offenses that they were doing to Srila Prabhupada I left Iskcon, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada and From Krishna in 2008 a disciple of Srila Prabhupada initiated me in the name of Srila Prabhudada, there I began to feel very much the presence of Srila Prabhupada in my life. spiritual, and that helped me a lot to counteract or purify the great contamination by having been initiated by two false gurus before, today I have come to the conclusion that the false gurus of Iskcon and his followers are very strange people, and Most strange of these people is that they admit that Srila Prabhupada did not leave anyone as his successor, but no one asks the question, so they do more than a hundred gurus there, as Krishna says in Bhagavad-gita, ignorance has robbed them of their intelligence, by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna one of the false gurus who died appeared to me in dreams and told me that he was suffering a lot in hell, they could have obeyed Srila Prabhupada's order to initiate on his behalf, and Srila Prabhupada would be the center of Iskcon and all the rest of his loving servants, the result of offending Srila Prabhupada is that one becomes a Mayavadi or atheist, the only occupation of the ma Yavadis is that no one serves or loves God or Krishna, and they do that because of the great envy they have for God or Krishna, likewise the false gurus and their followers their only occupation is that nobody serves and loves Srila Prabhupada, they have so much false ego that they want everyone to serve them and love them, and they do this because they are very envious of Srila Prabhupada and the followers are worse because they think that when my guru dies I will be the next guru, the false gurus receive service from others their false egos are increased, so these people are very dangerous, any contact with these people your spiritual life is ruined, Srila Prabhupada prophesied to those people in the mantra 12 of Sri Upanisad.
On May 28, 1977 were disciples of Srila Prabhupada talking with him about how the initiations would be done when Srila Prabhupada entered his Samadhi-lila or discarnated, Srila Prabhupada told them that he would name some of his disciples to be his representatives, Tamal Krishna asked him if that was Ritvik and Srila Prabhupada said yes, then on July 9, 1977 Srila Prabhupada sent a special letter to all his temples, in this letter he appointed some of his disciples to be his representatives and initiate in his name , for Srila Prabhupada everything was very clear, but some disciples of Srila Prabhupada who wanted to control others, invented that Srila Prabhupada named them as gurus, there all Iskcon disconnected from Srila Prabhupada, because the relationship with Srila Prabhupada comes through obeying his instructions, my conclusion is that Srila Prabhupada ordered the Ritvik philosophy and here they who are against this philosophy are against Srila Prabhupada and have hell assured.

The maximum charity work

The maximum charity work
I share this beautiful verse of Bhagavad-gita, 5, 25, there it says that those who are beyond the dualities that arise from doubts, whose minds are engaged within, who are always busy working for the welfare of all living beings and who are free from all sins achieve liberation in the Supreme. And in the meaning Srila Prabhupada says that only a person who is fully in Kṛṣṇa consciousness can be said to be engaged in welfare work for all living entities. When a person is actually in the knowledge that Kṛṣṇa is the fountainhead of everything, then when he acts in that spirit he acts for everyone. The sufferings of humanity are due to forgetfulness of Kṛṣṇa as the supreme enjoyer, the supreme proprietor and the supreme friend. Therefore, to act to revive this consciousness within the entire human society is the highest welfare work. One cannot be engaged in such first-class welfare work without being liberated in the Supreme. A Kṛṣṇa conscious person has no doubt about the supremacy of Kṛṣṇa. He has no doubt because he is completely freed from all sins. This is the state of divine love. A person engaged only in ministering to the physical welfare of human society cannot factually help anyone. Temporary relief of the external body and the mind is not satisfactory. The real cause of one’s difficulties in the hard struggle for life may be found in one’s forgetfulness of his relationship with the Supreme Lord. When a man is fully conscious of his relationship with Kṛṣṇa, he is actually a liberated soul, although he may be in the material tabernacle.
In the meaning of Bhagavad-gita, 11, 55, Srila Prabhupada informs us how difficult it is to preach Krishna consciousness, there he says that a devotee of Kṛṣṇa is friendly to everyone. Therefore it is said here that he has no enemy (nirvairaḥ). How is this? A devotee situated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness knows that only devotional service to Kṛṣṇa can relieve a person from all the problems of life. He has personal experience of this, and therefore he wants to introduce this system, Kṛṣṇa consciousness, into human society. There are many examples in history of devotees of the Lord who risked their lives for the spreading of God consciousness. The favorite example is Lord Jesus Christ. He was crucified by the nondevotees, but he sacrificed his life for spreading God consciousness. Of course, it would be superficial to understand that he was killed. Similarly, in India also there are many examples, such as Ṭhākura Haridāsa and Prahlāda Mahārāja. Why such risk? Because they wanted to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and it is difficult. A Kṛṣṇa conscious person knows that if a man is suffering it is due to his forgetfulness of his eternal relationship with Kṛṣṇa. Therefore, the highest benefit one can render to human society is relieving one’s neighbor from all material problems. In such a way, a pure devotee is engaged in the service of the Lord. Now, we can imagine how merciful Kṛṣṇa is to those engaged in His service, risking everything for Him. Therefore it is certain that such persons must reach the supreme planet after leaving the body.

People are crazy

People are crazy, for Haripada dasa
A crazy person is one who does not know who he is, a crazy person thinks that I am Santa Teresa de Ávila, another crazy person thinks that I am Srimati Radharani, a madman thinks that I am Jesus Christ, another crazy thinks that I am Napoleón, etc., The first lesson in the spiritual life or in the consciousness of God or Krishna is to understand and accept that we are not the temporary material body but eternal spiritual souls, we are going to try to understand and accept the origin of the eternal spiritual soul. In all the Holy Scriptures of the world it is said that the origin of everything is God. God has unlimited powers and energies, so that we understand them the great sages have classified them into three main ones, spiritual energy, material energy and marginal energy. We belong to the marginal energy, it is said in the Holy Scriptures of India that the soul has a glimpse of the spiritual world and also has a glimpse of the material world, 99 percent choose to go to the spiritual world to live with God or Krishna and never fall to the material world, and there is a one percent that we are that when seeing the opulences of God we get envy and turn our backs on God and choose to go to the material world, free will means that you choose. To understand this point I advise you to read the lost paradise of Milton. It is said that three quarters of God's creation is the spiritual world and the material world is only a quarter of God's creation. The causes of all wars is to live in the bodily concept and religious fanaticism, Hitler thought the Germans are the most, we are going to kill the others who are inferior, the Christians thought we are the most we are going to kill the Muslims, and the Muslims thought we are the best, we are going to kill Christians, all this is pure ignorance, the people who live in the bodily concept are full of ignorance and envy, and the result of this is much suffering, if the rulers of the world taught this scientific knowledge that we are not the temporary material body but eternal spiritual souls, this is called extra education, if there is a Ministry of Spiritual Education in each country and the educational institutions will teach spiritual education, the result of this would be that people would be free and happy
To understand the difference between God and us there are several examples that illustrate this, God is like a great fire and we are like sparks of that fire, God is like the great ocean and we are like drops of that ocean, God is unlimited and infinite and we are infinitesimal, God and we are qualitatively one, that is, we are spirit, and we have conscience, but quantitatively God is infinite and unlimited and we are infinitesimal, that is why one of the unlimited names of God is Achyuta which means that never it falls because it has complete knowledge, but we, being infinitesimal, tend to fall into ignorance and suffer. The whole process of Krishna consciousness is constituted by spiritual activities that help us to transfer from the material world to the spiritual world.
