Why Krishna came as Buddha to deny vedas & Why the same Krishna asked Sankaracharya to give the mis-interpretated Vedas again?

COUNSELLING:

“Jitender Nehra” asked like this:

“Hare Krishna Prabhu ji : Firstly very thanks for daily posts which you update daily. Its makes us very much aware. I want to ask two questions from you if u permit. both are connected with each other ...

1. Supreme personality of god head know as savior of vedas Then why he, in his Buddha incarnation he hidden the truth of veds

Another interesting prediction is that Lord Shiva, one of the great demigods, would appear in Kali-yuga as Shankaracharya. In the Padma Purana (6.236.5-12) Shiva explains to his wife, Parvati, that he will appear in the age of Kali to proclaim that the Buddhist doctrine is a false religion and illusory. He also said that he would propound the mayavada or impersonalist philosophy, emphasizing the indefinable nature of the Brahman, the great, impersonal spiritual force. He explained, "The philosop

Srimad Adi Shankaracharya bhagavadpada is believed to have composed the Bhaja Govindam during his famous pilgrimage to Kashi (Benares). The fourteen disciples are said to have accompanied him. The story goes that when he was walking along the streets of Kashi, he was pained to observe an elderly man trying hard to learn Sanskrit grammar. At his advanced age, the remaining valuable little time of his life should have been used for worshipping the God, instead of wasting on learning a language. Th

Arjuna: O Krishna, I realize that I am more attached to Your two-armed form. I now want to confirm that the path of bhakti is the best path. Therefore who are considered better, those who worship the impersonal Brahman or devotees who worship You?

Krishna: Those who fix their minds on My personal form and are always worshipping Me with great faith are the most perfect, Arjuna. These devotees are the best because bhakti is the quickest process for attaining Me. But those who worship the all-pervad

Again and again the day comes, and this host of beings is active; and again the night falls,

Prabhupada: Oh yes. There are varieties. Ananda, ananda, pleasure means varieties. Variety is the mother of enjoyment. Without varieties, just like we prepare from grains, sugar, ghee, hundreds of varieties. If you simply give grain, ghee and sugar, it will not be enjoyable. But the same thing, you prepare in varieties and give you a plate, oh, you'll say, "Oh, so nice thing." The ingredients are the same. Grains, ghee and sugar, that's all. Similarly, this material world, the ingredients are th

BG 08.05 - And whoever, at the end of his life, quits his body remembering Me alone at once attains My nature. Of this there is no doubt.

In this verse the importance of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is stressed. Anyone who quits his body in Kṛṣṇa consciousness is at once transferred to the transcendental nature of the Supreme Lord. The Supreme Lord is the purest of the pure. Therefore anyone who is constantly Kṛṣṇa conscious is also the purest of the pure. The word smaran ("remembering") is important. Rem

BG 02.20 - For the soul there is neither birth nor death at any time. He has not come into being, does not come into being, and will not come into being. He is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and primeval. He is not slain when the body is slain.

Qualitatively, the small atomic fragmental part of the Supreme Spirit is one with the Supreme. He undergoes no changes like the body. Sometimes the soul is called the steady, or kūṭa-stha. The body is subject to six kinds of transformations. It takes its b

BG 02.12 - Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.

The same Vedic truth given to Arjuna is given to all persons in the world who pose themselves as very learned but factually have but a poor fund of knowledge. The Lord says clearly that He Himself, Arjuna and all the kings who are assembled on the battlefield are eternally individual beings and that the Lord is eternally the maintainer of the individual living entit

The process of chanting the holy name of the Lord is so powerful that by this chanting even householders can very easily gain the ultimate result achieved by person in the renounced order. — Srimad Bhagavatam, 07.15.74

In this age, chanting of Hare Krishna Mantra is the prime business of the devotee, and preaching of this Hare Krishna Mantra by outdoor Sankirtana and propagation of literature is our more important business. Side by side, Deity worship is recommended, but when there is a question

If one has killed an animal, one must himself be killed by that same animal. This is called mamsa. Mam means “me,” and sa means “he.” As I am eating an animal, that animal will have the opportunity to eat me.
Srimad Bhagavatam 10.10.14,
Srila Prabhupada

A devotee is not afraid of going to hell if he has the opportunity to hear the glories of the Lord constantly. This is the advantage of chanting Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. One may be put in any condition, but God gives him the prerogative to chant Hare Krishna. In any condition of life, if one goes on chanting he will never be unhappy.

The dog is also sleeping on the side of a street without any difficulty and the king is sleeping on the palace, very nice apartment. A Krishna conscious person, he’s also sleeping. But there are different grades. The Krishna conscious person while sleeping, is chanting Hare Krishna. This can be done. If you practice this Hare Krishna, even in sleeping you’ll chant Hare Krishna. Everything depends on practice.
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 5.5.2 — Boston, April 28, 1969

“The death and birth is simply change of the body; the subtle body and the gross body.

Just like every night we die. The gross body remains inactive on the bed, and the subtle body takes me away. I dream, I go in the dreamland. I have gone to some friend, I am talking with somebody, I am working in a different way. That is our daily experience. This means that we have got two kinds of body. One body is this gross body, and the other body is subtle body, made of mind, intelligence, and ego. So foo

(1) Chant these 100 Names of Lord Gaura daily.

(2) Chant a minimum of 16 rounds of the Hare Krsna maha-mantra daily
on a tulasi mala with 108 beads. If possible gradually try to increase
the quality & quantity of your chanting till you can chant 64 rounds
daily as per the instructions of Lord Caitanya and all acaryas.

3) Follow the four regulative principles:

A) No eating of meat, fish, eggs, onion, garlic, etc.
B) No intoxication including tea, coffee, etc.
C) No gambling including frivolous sport

A living entity who plays the part on behalf of Krsna. God’s representative means the Guru.

1. Guru’s Instructions
We should follow his orders. We should please him if we want to please God.

2. Guru is not God
The Guru should be accepted as God. He is the external manifestation of Krsna but different from the incarnations of Krsna.

3. Symptoms of a Guru
The general symptoms of a Guru are described in the Vedas. To become a Guru is not an easy task. It is a risky job. A guru comes in a disciplic suc

He is always feeling that ‘ I am the lowest, everyone is best, everyone is engaged in Krsna’s service I am not engaged.’(Quote Krsnadasa kaviraja)
He says ‘ oh I have not a pinch of devotion to Krsna, I cry to make a show. If I had been a devotee of Krsna, I would have died long ago. But I am living. That is the proof that I do not love Krsna.’(Quote Caitanya Mahaprabhu)
He is always absorbed in Krsna’s love and he say ‘everything is going on but I am the lowest’ therefore I cannot see God.
