Solution to All of the World's Problems

 We
have the solution to all of the world's problems.
Therefore we have the most awesome responsibility to
educate the entire world population in the science of
Krishna consciousness. Somehow or other we must awaken
them to knowing who they actually are as pure
spirit-souls and being who they actually are as
Krishna's eternal servants. We have only two duties: to
become fully awakened ourselves in Krishna consciousness
and to awaken all others to to most sublime, happy state of pure
Krishna consciousness. To successfully carry out these
two duties we can accept any means. We have no interest
in wasting our time in other so called duties.

Question: Is
Lord Buddha Krishna's Incarnation? |
|
|
Dear Gurudeva,
Is Lord Buddha an incarnation of Lord Krishna? I read
that Lord Buddha is an incarnation of Lord
Krishna. But this is difficult to believe because
Buddhists do not believe in deity worship. They think
the universe has come out from nothing.

Answer: Yes |
|
|
Yes, according to the
Srimad Bhagavatam, Lord Buddha is an incarnation of
Krishna. Even though he is God Himself he taught atheism
and denied the authority of the Vedas because at that
time the Indian population was twisting the Vedic
injunctions to justify wide scale cow slaughter. To stop
them from their heinous sinful activities he denied the
Vedas and taught the principles of karma and
non-violence. Thus as part of a divine plan he paved the
way for future teachers who would bring back the Vedic
culture in its original pure form.
Srila Prabhupada has written as follows regarding Lord
Buddha in his purport to Srimad Bhagavatam, 1st Canto,
Chapter 3, Text 24:
"He deluded the atheists because such atheists who
followed his principles did not believe in God, but they
kept their absolute faith in Lord Buddha, who himself
was the incarnation of God. Thus the faithless people
were made to believe in God in the form of Lord Buddha.
That was the mercy of Lord Buddha: he made the faithless
faithful to him."
