we say tht one must use authoritative scriptures to know supreme personality of godhead as we hve some our own limitations so we can't perceive him through our senses, as we approach our mother to know abt world we must use scriptures to know abt god
so my questions is tht the belief sys is working there like belief on mother will let us alive in the world in the way it should be similarly belief on scriptures is the only way to know correct abt god
so does god is known due to our belief
god is in belief, if we dont believe then we cant know abt god so is it the power of belief tht tells abt god
who is grt belief or god? without belief where is god? wht is the interconnection?

as our connection grows stronger the more involved in our lives He can & will become. And that after all, is what one should seek & want, I would think. Results beyound faith hearing/& knowing. But accual reciprocation this is a good measher of the qulity of one's service/chanting!
I would think! ? Chant properly pronouncing Hare Haray as properly as you can. & be as regular as you can, this will transform your chanting into a ritchual & a science that does not fail. Remembering all are agent's of Krishna, willingly or unwittingly it is Hi's energies (alone) that are at the foundations of all creations
Thus serving/chanting' the combined names of the Head Gods, serves all relationships on all levels.
OverTime chanting revels all things! And answers good luck & plz. Chant Properly. The names of
Haray Krishna & Rama & then our lives will gradually become fulfilled.

There are many ways to know about existence of God.
The direct, simplest and most reliable way to know about God is through scriptures.
The problem with other ways is that it can lead us to conclusion of non-existence of god either due to subconscious disbelief in non-existence of God or due to limitations of method adopted or end up with very imcpmplete understanding of God(like impersonal force). Krsna is not completely described in scriptures also because Krsna is unlimited. It is only by devotion that one can realize Krsna.
bhaktyā mām abhijānāti
yāvān yaś cāsmi tattvataḥ
tato māṁ tattvato jñātvā
viśate tad-anantaram
One can understand Me as I am, as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, only by devotional service. And when one is in full consciousness of Me by such devotion, he can enter into the kingdom of God. (BG 18.55)
If we dont believe then we cant know abt god so is it the power of belief tht tells abt god
Consider a blind person. Whether he believes in sun or not, sun exists. Similarly whether we believe in existence of god or not, Krsna exists.
It is not a person's power of belief that tells about god. It is god reveals himself to sincere souls and this increases the belief of the devotee.
Who is greater belief or god?
God
Without belief where is god ?
Everywhere. But blind person cant see sun in middle of day. For one who has eyes, sunlight is everywhere, its obvious.
wht is the interconnection?
Faith is a necessary condition for knowing god, but not a sufficient condition. There is a lot more required to know Krsna.
Scriptures never ask us to put blind faith. They are like a map, which gives directions. If we follow directions correctly ultimately we'll reach Krsna. But in between the final destination and starting points many milestones or landmarks are there. Even before reaching destination we can be sure of the destination.
