Krishna Consciousness--Perfection of Science
Uploaded from Bhaktivedanta Ashram--Austin,

Science
means to know things as they actually are, not as they
appear to be or as we think them to be. If one is truly
scientific, he must not blindly accept something as
being either true or false because it could in fact be
just the opposite. For science to be perfect the
instruments used to acquire and analyze the data must
also be perfect. If the instruments are imperfect, the
data and conclusions drawn from such imperfect
observation will also necessarily be imperfect. Since
all scientific instruments currently available only
function within a highly limited spectrum of reality,
modern science is still quite unscientific and hence
still groping along in the dark ages.
Fortunately we have a scientific instrument available to
us which, if properly focused, can give us perfect data
thus allowing us to have perfect scientific knowledge.
That scientific instrument is consciousness, but it must
be properly focused. If a mirror is dirty, it cannot
give a good reflection. But if it is clean, it will
reflect things very clearly. Similarly when
consciousness is properly focused by being cleansed of
all dirt, it can yield a perfect scientific vision of
reality. That cleansing process has been taught to us by
great enlightened sages, who could directly perceive all
the scientific truths regarding this universe and the
multi-universes, both mundane and supra-mundane, beyond
the present universe in which we reside. That cleansing
process is the mantra yoga system. By meditating on the
mantra, a transcendental vibration coming from beyond
this mundane universe, by regularly chanting and hearing
it, all the dust which is presently covering the
consciousness is cleared away and one can directly
perceive everything clearly in a state of total
awakening, just as the sun lights up everything in the
daytime. Although the Vedic literatures from ancient
India contain many powerful bona fide mantras, they
recommend the Hare Krishna mantra as being the most
powerful and effective mantra for this age. This
greatest of all mantras is as follows:
Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare

Answers According to the Vedic Version: |
|
|
Question:
Should We Read Bhagavad-gita At Home? |
|
My
obeisances, Gurudeva.
Some say that the Bhagavad-gita should not be read at
home. I request you to clear this doubt.
Thank you
V.S.
|
|
Answer: Read Bhagavad-gita
Everywhere |
|
We do not listen to what
some say. We listen to what Krishna says. He says that
we should always be absorbed in hearing, remembering,
and following the teachings of the Bhagavad-gita. This
means that you must regularly read the Bhagavad-gita at
home and wherever you may be.
